Amberol introduce new virtual demonstration service for customers

Making connections and building relationships with our customers has always been the cornerstone of our ethos here at Amberol. In fact, many of our customers have worked with us for decades. We like to think that these trusting relationships combined with high levels of personal service makes us stand out from the crowd.

One of the features that had always been an important part of our customer service pre-Covid was the face to face demonstrations and sales visits carried out by our reps. We maintained these services when other companies didn’t for two main reasons:

Personal contact has always been a key way of building and maintaining relationships, which in turn enables us to serve our customers better.
The quality and durability of Amberol products is best appreciated in real life. There’s no hiding an inferior product when face to face and we have always been confident that the quality of our products is proven by real life demonstrations.

Moving forward into a post-Covid era

However, as we all know, Covid has changed the nature and frequency of face to face contact. We have all adapted to the regulations and rethought many areas of both our personal and professional lives as a result. And at Amberol we are no different; we have reflected back on the changes that we have been compelled to introduce. As we slowly re-emerge into normality, part of that reflection has included retaining and adapting the practices that have actually improved our business processes.

As a result, we are introducing a new virtual demonstration service for customers and potential customers which will enable you to see our products in detail remotely. This means that wherever are, you will be able to see any Amberol litter bin or self-watering planter in 360 degree view.

How the demonstrations will work

We are just putting the finishing touches to a new demonstration area at our Derbyshire factory which offers ample space to showcase our wide range of litter bins and self-watering planters.

You will be able to book a bespoke demonstration in advance online either by emailing sales@amberol.co.uk, by calling us on 01773 830 930 or contacting us here.
You will then access the demonstration at the agreed time via a link that will be sent to your email address. The demonstration should be simple to access and there will also be step by step instructions in the email invitation.
A demonstrator will be online in the demonstration area to show you the product(s) that you wish to see.
