appliance sales appliance repair business planning marketing selling techniques purchasing warehousing sales outsourcingWe are an appliance repair company looking to expand into the installation and sales division of appliances. We would be competing against large company names such as "The Brick", "Best Buy", "Corbeil", etc. We have already made a couple of first successful steps, we have tested the market, it seems viable and interesting to expand into. We currently have a couple of well trained installers doing inhouse work. We would like to get into the market of mass installations in newly built condo buildings which sometimes can have up to 500 apartments with 5+ appliances.
We currently already see a high demand in appliance sales that we are not tapping into when it comes to our current repair customers. For our customers that choose to buy new, rather than following through with the repair, we can satisfy there needs by selling them a new appliance which reduces our risk of getting stuck with a large quantity of stock.
We must figure out a proper plan and have backup solutions when something does not work. we must also figure out if it is best to outsource certain work chains or keep it inhouse.
Here is a break down of in point form of ideas we must consider
- Building a business plan
- Figuring out transport and delivery of machines
- Developing Relationships with Suppliers or foreign manufactures for purchasing appliances
- Figuring out quality and warranty of appliances
- Developing Relationships with Investors and Contractors and Developers to bid on jobs
- Finding Adequate and cost effective Ware house space to hold supply
- See if there are any international relationships we can acquire for purchasing or outsourcing any work.
What we currently have
- 30'(L) x 35'(W) x 8'(H) empty warehouse space
- 12 ft cube truck for transporting appliances (up to 24 appliances)
- Qualified Installers that can do any size building project, and we can hire standby helpers if needed
- Great office support
- Graphic designer and website creator for any marketing needs
We have an office manager ready to answer any questions
