Zip Express Installation Announces Wild West Electronics as New Online Retail Partner for Consumer Electronics Installation Service
Zip Express Makes Installation Packages Available Through Wild West Electronics
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Zip Express Installation, the first next-day installation service for consumer electronics retailers, announces a new online retail partnership with Wild West Electronics (www.wildwestelectronics.net) to provide installation to its customers at checkout. Zip Express provides an in-house installation department for Wild West Electronics and other retail partners, enabling them to provide installation services to customers without the challenges involved with maintaining an expensive workforce, vehicles, human resources and equipment.
“Offering installation services is an excellent way for retailers to gain additional revenue,” said Chris Mauzy, President and CEO of Zip Express Installation. “Providing those installation services through Zip Express allows for greater benefits for the retailer, as it eliminates the costly overhead necessary to support an in-house infrastructure.”
The inability to properly set up a new piece of equipment is a frequent reason for customer returns. Zip Express offers quick installation for customers, leading to a decrease in return rates. Zip Express also provides attractive margins for retailers by offering additional sales revenue on top of the product at checkout as prices for major electronic products continue to go down.
Zip Express provides the first installation option for customers of Wild West Electronics, who can now purchase installation packages alongside any major home electronic purchases made through the online retailer, with next-day installation available anywhere in the U.S. and Canada. Installation packages from Zip Express are paired with appropriate electronics items, making it easy for the customer to find the best installation package to fit their needs.
Installation appointments can be scheduled immediately after the selected service is rung up with the product at checkout. Customers can call the toll free number or visit www.zipinstallation.com to schedule the installation for the specific day and hour that is most convenient for them.
Wild West Electronics will offer a complete suite of installation services from Zip Express including tabletop TV setup, TV wall mounting, home theater setup, remote control set up and furniture assembly. In addition to being the first nationwide installation service to offer next-day installation appointments at a specific hour, Zip Express installers take all trash away from the job and train each customer on how the new setup works in the home.
Zip Express Installation services can also be purchased separately online by any consumer at www.zipinstallation.com, with installation services starting at $129.95. All installation work done by Zip Installation’s more than 16,000 CE-certified installers also comes with a one-year warranty.
