Wireless Repair EXPO 2016 Presenting Sponsors

Innovating the Wireless Repair Industry

With the speed of innovation how can we as an industry come together to influence standards in the supply chain, ensure timely distribution of quality replacement parts and create an exceptional customer experience.

Current State of Supply Chain

An insight to todays’ challenges in the supply chain; including a breakdown of parts in the market, quality standards, and product lifecycles.

Business Intelligence: Making or Breaking Retail Repair

Price - (Parts + Labor) = Gross Profit... or at least we wish it did. Unfortunately, retail repair businesses don’t operate in a perfect world. Defective parts, breakage, and rework cloud the picture and make drawing conclusions about profitability much more complex.Instead of relying on staff and industry hearsay, successful brands need the tools to collect realtime data and distill it into actionable key performance indicators. In this session, we will discuss business intelligence tactics and tools that reveal ‘true’ profitability by bringing factors like repair reworks, defect rates break rates, return rates, labor efficiency, and RMA efficiency into focus.

Customer Communication: Customer Experience

Every retailer seeks to increase customer value and referral business, which starts with customer experience. Strategic communication focused on customer engagement and expectation management can help shape your customer’s experience; driving your brand’s reputation.

Turbo-Charging Your Profit Per Transaction

Well oiled retail organizations leverage very specific philosophies and programs that allow them to maximize gross profit for every door swing. The same techniques used by Verizon and other large organizations can have tremendous applicability for the repair space as well.

Keeping Customers for Life

Protection plans have long been a retailer’s best friend, growing to an almost $12 billion annual business for the mobile industry. However, the availability of protection plan programs for independent repair shops has been extremely limited until now. Warranty Life, through a direct integration with RepairQ software, can now serve uniquely tailored protection plan offerings direct to wireless repair shops in North America for both consumers and institutions.
