Pearl Launch Liniar Dealership
throughout the UK
Jeff Walsh of Pearl Window Systems speaks exclusively to Glass News…
Tell us about the Liniar Dealership... “Recognising the need for a close working relationship and the potential to develop our customers business we are pleased to announce the launch of our new Liniar Dealer Network. Keen to work with all our clients to bond a long-term relationship and learn from each other, The Liniar Dealership allows us to share our achievements, and to improve on the day to day running of our mutual businesses, crucial in any operation. Our recent activities have seen the development of Liniar Dealer’s throughout the UK, securing ten partners in the first month from launch.” Jeff continues: “Wanting to maximise and promote our extensive product range and allow customers to benefit from the popularity of the Liniar profile, we are now looking to secure partnerships with dealers in other areas, throughout the UK. Becoming a Liniar Dealer ensures you have access to the latest products, we also help you with lead generation through advertising both in trade publications and the internet. We are confident you will reap the benefits of promoting these new and exciting products.”
Why become A Liniar Dealer? “Our entire dealer network will be provided with software to help streamline their operation; this will enable busy installers
to have access to electronic ordering and pricing and also allows bespoke invoicing and delivery note paperwork to be generated. Our on site and telephone support will allow our dealers to have control quickly of a full range of products to price and order electronically.”
“The inclusion of our dealers within network advertisements will give customers the perfect opportunity to maximise trade business in their local area. We believe brand awareness is key to success in every sector. Full product training is also on hand to help, and is just one of the many benefits of the overall partnership package on offer.”
Why have you launched the Scheme? “With an ever increasing need to gain strength in our market sector, choices are so important together with flexibility and choosing the right partners in the supply chain.” “From the initial extrusion processes through to manufacturing of windows and doors, to the product being installed for the end consumer, acknowledging this process is easy but finding the correct partners is the difficult part. As the industry is evolving we need to stay ahead of our competitors.” The Liniar Dealership is looking for likeminded trade outlets who have the same passion and desire to not only expand their business but also remain stable during the difficult trading periods we have seen in recent years. We are keen to introduce our products and services and demonstrate not
only our strengths but demonstrate that we have selected the right supply partners ourselves to cater for their every need from start to finish. Continued on page 4...
