Earning Dollar Rewards Increased Revenue 25%
CHALLENGE
RINNAI NEEDED TO DRIVE SALES FOR HOT WATER PRODUCTS
Rinnai knew this: it wasn’t the homeowners who were choosing their hot water systems or hot water system part. It was the plumbers and fitters that plumbers that were the primary forces behind what product ended up in their customers’ homes – both at the initial installation and at repair time. Most customers took the product advice of their technician, with little question. So Rinnai needed to find a way to promote their products to the biggest stakeholders in this game – the plumbers and fitters themselves.
