DELIVERS WHAT THE
INDUSTRY NEEDS
» » AT THE END OF LAST
year, Epwin Window Systems
commissioned a piece of research
to find out the top goals of
fabricators and installers in 2018.
The results were clear: driving
more sales was the top priority
for most businesses, with nearly
63% saying this would be the
most important goal for them
this year.
The consumer initiative is the
latest addition to a programme
that is packed with lead
generation support.
There is a Find an Installer
section on the Excellence as
Standard website; fabricator
members can also have a landing
page on their site that incorporates
an installer finder and review
centre. Installers can enhance
their listing with reviews and
ratings, which they manage via the
programme’s review centre.
There is advice and training
on digital marketing strategies to
help members harness what social
media and the web have to offer.
To drive excellence throughout a
business and further enhance its
reputation as a go-to company.
There’s also the over-arching
support of a dedicated brand
manager, customer service,
technical advice and business
development contact that
members can get in touch with
when they need one-to-one
support.
