Summary: Already considered to be one of the fastest growing pest control companies in North America, the environmentally responsible exterminator Alterra is proud to announce a record-breaking summer of growth over 53,000 new customers in a single summer, a feat never before seen by a start up in the pest control industry.
Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) October 24, 2012
Alterra Pest Control started the year with a specific goal of attracting 50,000 new customers in 2012. In the month of May alone, Alterra added 10,000 new accounts; this combined with their unbelievable summer growth of 53,000Alterra Pest Control has exceeded their original growth projections.
As the nation experienced an unseasonably warm winter and spring, Alterra felt that the market conditions would be favorable to bringing in a significant number of new customers. In California, the summer weather brought out an increase in Argentine ants, black widow spiders, and rodents. During the summer, Alterras Sacramento area alone saw an increase of approximately 3,800 new customers.
In order to accomplish and support this extraordinary growth, Alterra Pest Control worked diligently to ensure that their sales and operations teams had the highest level of quality training.
This year we significantly fine-tuned our training programs for both the sales and operations teams. We have completely revamped our process manuals, training videos, and weekly technical trainings. We are also grateful to our Chief Customer Officer, Derrick Royce, for developing Alterra University, a wide variety of customized trainings to help improve overall customer service. Vess Pearson, President
The result of Alterras efforts has been a rapidly expanding company built with integrity.
Alterras goal for 2012 was to build a better company, not just a bigger one, says CEO, David Royce, about growth. Alterras family environment and core values help to strengthen our teams willingness to WOW customers, promote referrals and feel part of something special on a daily basis. We give all the credit to this summers service team and the many long hard hours put in to making this extraordinary achievement possible.
