Customers come to Ralph’s Radio for our service and the quality of the products we sell. This combination helps to ensure that their shopping experience with us is great – from start to finish. We spend a lot of time on researching the products we sell. We’d love to walk you through several aspects of our product partners selection process.
The People
When we start meeting with suppliers, we are looking for people who are knowledgeable. Having access to people who truly understand the products they sell means they can support us when questions arise. More often than not, great people usually sell great products.
The Vision
Part of our process in choosing a product line involves investigating the short- and long-term goals for the brand itself. Is there creativity and innovation in what they are developing? We like to know if the company is investing in new products that will fit our customers’ needs. We research how reliable the products are. Product reliability is crucial to our clients and us. Finally, we look for a commitment from the supplier to ensure that our sales team will have adequate and ongoing product training. Product knowledge is paramount to meeting our customers’ needs.
Business Considerations
Many suppliers have good products and good people, but their policies make doing business with them frustrating. We need to know that they will stand behind their product warranties. Turnaround time for repairs has to be as fast as possible. Our suppliers have to have products in stock. If a customer wants something that we don’t have, we need to be able to get it quickly. Back orders or long shipping times from warehouses on the other side of the country don’t do either of us any good. Finally, support in our marketing endeavors is important to us. Our suppliers have to understand our business and our goals.
Our Products
We always choose quality over quantity. Our suppliers realize that we would rather have a great product than an inexpensive one. Based on this, our customers enjoy their purchasing experience and recommend us to their friends. We have dealt with manufacturers in the past who were more concerned about sales quantity over quality. We have ended all relationships with manufacturers like that.
Ralph’s Radio has been in business since 1949. We base our success on our commitment to quality, value and – above all – customer service. The suppliers we have chosen understand our goals and ensure that their business models match ours.
We invite you to visit our Vancouver or Victoria, British Columbia, locations. We think that you will enjoy your experience with our sales staff. Ralph’s Radio team is trained to help quantify your goals and then develop a solution that ensures you will be satisfied. Our brand-vetting process contributes to ensuring we are successful.
