‘Buy Local’ is a slogan that is used a lot to encourage people to use independent shops near to them for their goods and services. As one of those businesses in Fleet, we support all of the efforts and initiatives to encourage people to buy local. But the onus is also on us to give compelling reasons to local people why buying local is actually the best choice as well as the right choice for them.
Convenience
Our shop is just off Kings Road in Fleet. We’re hard to miss with our bright red and blue Ace Electric signage. We are near the town centre, but we have less restrictive on road parking e.g., on Pinewood Hill there is 2 hours free parking. That’s more than enough time to pop in to see us and tell us what you are looking for.
We always push our personal service as we think it is what makes us different from the big companies where their model is to shift as many units as they can. But we know too that people will browse online for a washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher etc. before calling or dropping by. Our own website showcases the product range and our offers. The Ace Electric pages of the Euronics site is updated centrally with product availability.
Choice and value
We are an agent of Euronics, a big European company buying in huge numbers from all of the well-known appliance manufacturers like Bosch, Hisense and Hotpoint. Their buying power means that we are able to sell at prices comparable to Currys, AO.com etc. Similarly, we have access to product promotions like discounted installation, free cleaning products and extended warranties. That’s why we would always recommend speaking to us first before making any purchase, so you know you are getting the best deal ‘in the round’ at that time.
Longevity
Ace Electric has been trading in Fleet, Hampshire for over 50 years. Running an independent business is rewarding and hard work. We thrive because we excel at customer service. It is the fuel that drives our business forward. Take a look at our Google Reviews. Many customers have taken the time to write about how we went the extra mile to ensure they were happy with both the product and the service. We want our customers to be our advocates, but that can only happen if we do a great job, time after time, after time.
Knowledge
With longevity comes knowledge. If you call or come into the shop, the chances are you will talk with Paul. He is an encyclopaedia when it comes to product ranges. Whether it’s a washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, oven, fridge or freezer he will find the right model for you. Some customers are cost-conscious, some want specific features. Others are more concerned energy efficiency. Why wouldn’t you talk to someone with Paul’s expertise when it’s freely available and on your doorstep?
Installation
Our installation service for large appliances is much more than simple plugging-in the new machine! Elements of installation include:
- Pre-site survey and inspection
- Delivery
- Removal and recycle and old appliance
- Installation and testing of new appliance and a demonstration of it works
- Removal and disposal of all packaging
It is the installation service, by our own team of people, that it the big difference that customers refer to time and again.
We hope we have given you some great reasons to consider going to your local electrical shop to make a purchase of your next large domestic appliance. We’re just a phone call away and open 7 days a week! We look forward to being of service. Call: 01252 623163.
