After an aggressive nationwide expansion with 13 new markets opened earlier this year, Alterra Pest Control sets new National record of 53,000 new customers onboard in a single summerastonishing first year growth never before seen in the pest control industry.

St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) October 26, 2012

Earlier this year the company underwent a radical nationwide expansion opening 13 new markets. St. Louis was just one of them. This summer, St. Louis did indeed experience elevated bug populations, which included above average numbers of spiders and silverfish. The St. Louis area contributed approximately 3,800 new customers to Alterras record-breaking summer growth.

Alterra Pest Controls forethought proved to be invaluable in their growth-goal, which had originally been to increase new customer accounts by 50,000. This summers total beat that original estimate as Alterra continues to grow in 2012. Being in the right place at the right time was important, but Alterra was also prepared with a strong business plan that included enhanced training and education of both the operational and sales side of the company.

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
