Long lasting relationship with Chemex
Stephen and Margaret bought their Chemex franchise nearly 15 years ago. Stephen, a former hotel manager and Margaret, a former PA have been rewarded by unwavering customer loyalty ever since. Margaret highlights this by stating “We pride ourselves in never having lost a customer in those fifteen years”.
"We operate in an industry that requires our products year-round and we aim to get regular repeat business. The cleaning chemical industry is very competitive and there are many companies offering high-quality products so we needed an approach that would really set us apart."
The Crinks do a lot more than merely meet their customers’ expectations; they exceed them and exceed them consistently. Examples of this include helping them understand new legislation and keeping up-to-date with what is important to the customer. They are so committed to providing great service that this year they invested money in independent market research. According to Margaret “the results were reassuring…customers really did appreciate the personal touch. We plan to repeat this exercise each year to keep us on our toes.”
On owning a Chemex franchise, Stephen comments that “One of the main attractions of franchising for us was the ability to share knowledge. Fifteen years on we still take up others’ ideas and we work closely with new franchisees and prospects as we still remember what it was like in the early days.”
"Delivering first-class customer service is everything - our success is built upon it. We build long-term relationships so our customers can’t imagine going anywhere else”.
The Crinks’s story illustrates how individuals with great work ethic and tenacity can really succeed within the Chemex business model.
