Fujitsu General Announces Premier Program Strategic Partnership
PRESS RELEASE
JUNE 13 - Fujitsu General America, Inc. has partnered with Service 1st Financial, LLC to offer the Premier Program® to its contractor partners. This partnership allows Fujitsu contractors to provide homeowners with a Home Comfort-as-a-Service leasing option for their residential heating and cooling needs.
According to sources, the Premier Program is a worry-free service for homeowners to replace and upgrade their heating and cooling equipment for a low monthly payment, while eliminating the common pain points associated with owning, maintaining, and repairing such systems.
Delivered through a comprehensive, easy-to-use platform, the Premier Program is supported by what sources describe as industry-leading, on-site sales training. Contractors that utilize the Premier Program experience improved financial performance from higher close rates, increased average tickets, and profitable recurring revenue. Each Premier Program installation also features a long-term maintenance agreement that improves customer retention, secures annual cross-sell opportunities, and places the installing contractor first-in-line for the next replacement sale.
Fujitsu sources added that this partnership promotes the shared sustainability goals of Fujitsu and Service 1st. “The home comfort industry is a significant contributor to carbon emissions worldwide. It’s our responsibility to encourage consumers to make planet-friendly purchasing decisions,” said Anuj Khanna, founder & CEO of Service 1st. “Replacing old home comfort systems earlier, making high efficiency products more financially accessible, and ensuring annual maintenance is performed are key contributors to reducing the industry’s carbon footprint. Together, Fujitsu contractors and the Premier Program can deliver on these critically important goals.”
