Something we lead on very strongly with all of our respective brands at ServiceMaster (UK) Limited is Celebrity Service. First introduced to us by Geoff Ramm. The notion of delivering a customer experience that is memorable. Today I took my car in for 3 new tyres, also known as a ‘grudge purchase’ in adulthood. Whilst talking to the workshop manager at the garage I mentioned my love for the a particular car air freshener, “you know the black tree one that smells like aftershave”. Low and behold without mentioning anything to me when I settled the invoice, I got in to the car and unannounced, my favourite air freshener waiting for me. This is an act of ‘Celebrity Service’. Whilst the ticket price shows £1.49, the cost is meaningless. The value, huge! That gesture has secured my business for the future and should anyone ask me for a tyre recommendation in Barnsley, I’m going to say not just Wilco Motorsave, but Mark at Wilco Motorsave, Barnsley! 😊
