Award reflects company’s consistently high level of customer service

 

Jeffries Electric has been awarded the prestigious 2010 Angie’s List Super Service Award, an honor bestowed annually on approximately 5 percent of all the companies rated on the nation’s leading provider of consumer reviews on local service companies.

“Our Super Service Award winners are the cream of the crop when it comes to providing consistently high quality customer service, as judged by the customers who hired them,” said Angie Hicks, founder of Angie’s List.

David Jeffries credits the award to the employees. He says the dispatchers, office personnel and electricians all work as a team to deliver top quality service to all our customers. “We have the best team of people to serve the best customers.”

Angie’s List Super Service Award winners have met strict eligibility requirements including earning a minimum number of reports, an exemplary rating from their customers and abiding by Angie’s List operational guidelines.

Service company ratings are updated daily on Angie’s List, but members can find the 2010 Super Service Award logo next to company names in search results on AngiesList.com.

Voice of the Customer

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010

We recently were called to attend a  conference in Dallas with a company we partner with to supply electrical service and repair.  Some of you know them by the big orange box and the words on their sign ” Home Depot”. More on this shortly.

Every time I buy something in a Home Depot store, I noticed the cashier gives me a receipt and asks me to go online for a chance to win something or a special offer. I must admit, I have not done this. When I have comments for the store, I usually find the store manager and tell them my comments. I found out there is more to this than I expected. This cash register receipt is also an invitation to an online survey of “How well did we serve you?

One stands out as a leader in energy

I work for 15 stores over the N. Texas area of Denton Co, Collin Co. , Dallas and Tarrant Co. As we are in these stores quite often, I often know these employees by their 1st name.  They sent us lots of great customers.

Seems that Home Depot is very interested in how their outside contractors treat their customers. They spent a lot of time and resources to check on all the different trades and ask lots of questions so that they will know how we perform.

The meeting  we were “invited ” to last month turned out to be more than we expected. We were awarded the top customer service score among our peers in the region.  The award is called the Voice of the Customer, or VOC.  I will quote the plaque we received from Home Depot citing our customers opinion.

Best in Class YTD 2010 VOC

Score    9.85

 

Signed   Dave Welch                                                                              Regional Services Manager

 

Top Score is 10. There is still room for improvement, but I have to tell you, this award is for my dispatchers, office administrator, and electricians. They are the people that are the face of this company and the ones that do the yeoman’s share of work.

Congratulations to the Jeffries Electric Team for all the hard work and a job well done!    

As I was writing this, I found out we were awarded a “Super Service” badge by Angie’s List. I will find out about this award and keep you up to date. I really do have a great team.

How much damage can a contractor do ?

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

Have you hired a contractor in the past, and as soon as they set foot in the door you started to worry about your choice.

Everyone has made this mistake. Where do you turn when you are in your own home.
If you want to buy a car and the salesman turns you off, you just say thank you and walk away.
If the sofa is too expensive, do you say “I’m going to check some more prices.” and you leave.

  1. What do you do when the salesman is in your home.
  2. How do you retreat?
  3. How can you tell if this person is going to charge you too much?
  4. Is this person going to make a big mess?
  5. Is he/she selling me what I really need or want?

This is a common situation for many homeowners that have called a company out of the phone book and now they are very uncomfortable with their choice.

Your castle (your home) is your last line of defense and your place of refuge. Now you have someone in your home and you are very uncomfortable with this.

Do you trust the contractor in your home?

Be forthright and tell the contractor you have changed your mind. Firmly escort them to the exit and thank them for the time and travel they spent to come to your home. If there is a charge for the trip, pay them and be thankful you listened to your inner voice.

I promise, the small charge will be so much less than having someone in your home and second guessing everthing they tell you and everthing they do. Peace of mind is something you can not buy at any price.

Now, get online and go to Angie’s List or call a friend and ask about their experience if they have had the same work done recently. At the very least, pick up the phone and call Jeffries Electric. We will be glad to come out to your home ( if you live in our service area) and give you a quote or help you plan your project for new outlets or lights or any electrical problems.
