Surveys Sent = 36, Response Rate 31%)
Recently we conducted a survey of a small
sampling of our customers. We sincerely appreciate those who took the time to
respond despite your very busy schedules. We received many helpful and
thoughtful suggestions - many of which we are in the process of implementing.
Those suggestions that aren't implemented immediately will be researched for
future implementation.
We were very pleased with the responses and
thought we would share them with you.

We currently have a live-answering service for after-hours
emergency calls. We are considering implementing an automated voice/paging
system instead. The new voice mail system will record your message and then
automatically page our on-call technician with the message. How do you feel
about this change? |

Please explain
your preference. Please explain your preference. |
- I really like leaving a message with a live
person, there is something satisfying about knowing your message has been
received and dealt with without a return call
I also like low prices and
profitable vendors. It's not so much the system as it is the company using the
system. I don't worry about Advance.
- Positive as long as response time is good.
- Talking to a machine never guarantees a
response.
- Don't care about the method as long as a
call back happens quickly - quickly being less than 15 minutes.
- Talk directly to tech, less confusion,
faster response.
- Usually not life-threatening.

simple.
- I like viewing the additional capabilities
that the contractors I deal with have outside the normal HVAC maintenance and
replacement work.
- Interesting, but not a necessity for doing
business with you.
- I'd visit it again if prompted, or if
looking for something.
