SecureGuard Warranty Credit Union Customer Sales Letter
Mr. Charles Q. Customer
123 Any Street
Somewhere, NC 22222
Dear Mr. Customer:
Imagine a future free from worries about the hassles and high costs of home or vehicle repairs.
Imagine, over the next twelve months, knowing you’re just one phone call away from fast, reliable, pre-paid repair service no matter what may go wrong with your home’s major appliances, or its heating, air conditioning, plumbing and electrical systems.
Imagine knowing your new or used car or truck is covered, bumper to bumper, from virtually any mechanical or system failure for as long as seven years.
At National Bank, we know the impact unexpected repair bills can have on your budget, and we understand why you may worry about today’s high repair costs and the difficulty of finding qualified technicians when you need them.
That’s why we’re offering you a series of new home and vehicle warranty plans designed exclusively for us by SecureGuard Warranty.
Rest assured, we’ve made certain these warranties are among the most comprehensive, most competitively priced in the industry. We’ve made sure you’ll receive top-notch service when something goes wrong at home or with your vehicle. And we’ve made absolutely certain the company insuring the warranties has the highest possible ratings for financial strength and stability.
As you’ll see from the enclosed brochures, there are two types of home warranties—Advantage I for home buyers and sellers and Advantage II for homeowners. Advantage vehicle warranties are available for both new and used cars and trucks at about half the price you’d pay a dealer for the same coverage.
You’ll also see how simple and complete these warranties are. There’s no fine print to wade through to figure out just what’s covered and what’s excluded.
If the appliance or home system or vehicle is covered and it needs repair, we fix it.
Wondering about costs?
SecureGuard home warranties are available for as little as 33 cents per day, depending on the coverage you choose and the size of your home. Vehicle warranty pricing depends on the deductible amount, the coverage period and the make and model of your vehicle.
With today’s high cost of repair service, your warranty could easily pay for itself with a single service call. Best of all, you enjoy complete freedom from worries about budget-breaking repairs.
The peace of mind is priceless
I urge you to call me toll free at 800 555-5555 or stop by my office at your earliest convenience to find out how you can secure your home and vehicle with this valuable coverage. I’ll look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Doe
Loan Officer
P.S. All SecureGuard warranties feature a “free-look” period of 30 to 60 days. If you purchase a warranty and then, during that time, decide the warranty’s not for you, you may cancel the contract and receive a full refund. That makes your decision to cover your home and vehicle with SecureGuard warranties virtually risk-free.
SecureGuard Warranty Telemarketing Script
Goal of the calls: To schedule meetings with prospects who’ve received a direct mail letter and brochures.
Suggested comments:
Hi—I’m Mark Kelly with SecureGuard Warranty. We sent you a letter and brochures about our SecureGuard Plus home and vehicle warranties and I’m calling to be sure you received it.
[IF RECEIVED] Great! Have you had a chance to look at it?
[IF REVIEWED] Then I hope you’re as excited as we are about the opportunity to increase your revenues this year. Just to recap…
[IF NOT RECEIVED OR NOT REVIEWED] That’s OK. I can summarize it for you fairly quickly…
…We’re a marketing company working with financial institutions to market private label home and vehicle warranties to their mortgage and vehicle loan customers.
Once your plan’s in place, you can expect your warranty sales to generate anywhere from half a million to six million or more a year in extra revenues depending on the number of loans you have on the books and the number of new loans you make this year. And those estimates are based on some pretty conservative assumptions.
You understand—all the marketing materials and contracts have your name and logo on them, and all the contracts are insured by AIG—American Investment Group. I’m sure you know, you can’t find an insurance company any more secure or better rated than AIG is.
You can’t find warranties any better than ours either. Considering the coverage and the price, plus the fact they’re insured by AIG, you really can’t beat SecureGuard Plus.
A few extra millions in revenue would look pretty good in your next annual report, wouldn’t they?
Then let’s make it happen.
Our company president—Rick Murray—and I would like to spend a half-hour with you in your office—maybe later this week or one day next week—to explain the plans in more detail and show you an estimate of how much you could expect to earn from warranty sales.
What day would be convenient for you? What time?
[FINISH MEETING ARRANGEMENTS.]
Possible Objections & Responses
We’re not interested.
But your customers are interested. Do you realize consumers buy extended warranties on anywhere from a third to half of all new cars and about two-thirds of consumer electronics and appliances?
There’s also a recent Gallup Poll that showed eight of ten homeowners surveyed said they want a home warranty plan and consider a warranty important in their home buying decision.
So the demand is there and it’s growing. How can you not be interested in making extra income by meeting that demand with a great product?
I’ve never heard of you.
Have you heard of VISA? Or Telco? Or NAPA? They’re all already doing business with us. And our president and I would be happy to introduce ourselves in person and answer any questions you have about our company.
Extended warranties are a waste of money.
Sure, most warranty owners never have to make a claim. But those who do are awfully glad they have the coverage. A lot of times, just one claim will amount to more than the cost of the warranty. And there’s plenty of value in the peace of mind. It’s worth a lot not to have to worry.
We don’t have the resources to market a new product.
That’s exactly what SecureGuard Warranty offers you. We provide you the resources—the marketing and training support you need to be up and running in six to eight weeks. AIG Warranty Services handles the program administration. Beyond that, it’s simply a matter of cross-selling the warranties to your customers as a great value-added product.
I don’t have time to meet with you.
I know you’re busy. But don’t you agree it would be worth 30 minutes of your time to consider the potential for a half million or more in extra income this year?
Instead of meeting, could you just send me something in the mail?
Of course I could mail you more information. I have a 24-page booklet right here that has all the details. But we’d much rather deliver your copy personally because the booklet is really no substitute for a face-to-face meeting. We’d like to tell you specifically how a private label warranty plan can work for you—especially how much profit it can generate—for your institution.
So can we schedule a half-hour meeting? You name the time and the place, and we’ll be there. And we promise to keep it to 30 minutes.
I’m really not interested, and I don’t want to waste your time.
We’re more than willing to risk a half-hour to tell you about this great opportunity. We’re confident, if you meet with us, you’ll find yourself getting interested. After all, you’re interested in making money, aren’t you? Then let’s set a time and place that suits you.
SecureGuard Equipment Warranty Dealer Letter
Mr. John Q. Dealer
Lawn & Garden Equipment Store, Inc.
123 Any Street
Anywhere, NC 22222
Dear Mr. Dealer:
Are you interested in making an extra $20 on every piece of Husqvarna equipment you sell? How about an extra $197?
And how about a chance to generate $20 to $197 more profit on every single piece of Husqvarna equipment you’ve sold in the past two years?
All it takes is some good, old-fashioned salesmanship and our new Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans.
With Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans, you can boost your earnings while your customers double our standard warranty coverage period to four years of total protection.
That’s double the peace of mind, double the security, double the confidence your customers can feel—knowing if their Husqvarna equipment fails at any time during the 24 months after the original two-year warranty period ends, they’re still completely covered.
Best of all—as you’ll see from the enclosed price chart—you can offer this extra protection to your customers for just pennies a day.
These ironclad extended warranties are simple and easy to explain. If a piece of covered Husqvarna equipment needs repairs during the first four years, your customers simply return it to you for service. And with every warranty repair claim, your service department gets paid promptly for parts and labor.
That’s even more income for you!
Your customer/business development manager is ready right now to help you develop the sales savvy you need to market this exciting new value-added product. We’ll also supply you with the eye-catching point of purchase materials and sales brochures you need to attract your customer’s attention—and keep it—from the time you introduce the simple extended warranty concept right through closing the warranty sale.
Don’t delay! Don’t let another Husqvarna customer carry extra earnings out your door! Don’t let another original Husqvarna warranty expire without offering this profitable new product to your customers!
We urge you to review the enclosed information about Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans right away.
And when you’re ready to start earning more money on your Husqvarna sales—including all the Husqvarna sales you’ve made in the past two years—call your customer/business development manager.
Sincerely,
General Sales Manager
P.S. Remember—if you’re not offering these new Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans to every one of your Husqvarna customers, you’re losing profit potential.
Don’t let these extra earnings slip through your fingers. Pick up the telephone and call your customer/business development manager right now!
SecureGuard Equipment Warranty Dealer Letter
Mr. John Q. Dealer
Lawn & Garden Equipment Store, Inc.
123 Any Street
Anywhere, NC 22222
Dear Mr. Dealer:
As a retailer of Husqvarna products, you clearly care about offering your customers the industry’s best lawn and garden equipment. We appreciate the confidence you place in us and our products, and we look forward to continuing to supply the top-notch equipment your customers have come to expect from the Husqvarna brand, backed by our ironclad manufacturer’s warranty.
Just as we’re always looking for innovative ways to improve our equipment, we also remain alert to opportunities to improve our service to you and your customers. That’s why, when the people from SecureGuard Warranty offered to create a custom extended protection plan expressly for our retailers, we were so interested and enthusiastic.
Husqvarna’s new Extended Protection Plans extend our basic manufacturer’s warranty, covering our engine and drive systems, by two additional years, providing your customers an optional extra measure of protection in the event their Husqvarna equipment fails during the 24 months after the original warranty period ends.
The warranty contract is simple and easy to explain to customers, with no fine print to read through looking for exclusions and exceptions. Using the sales training tools created for us by SecureGuard Warranty, your customer/business development manager will help your sales associates develop the sales savvy they need to present Husqvarna’s Extended Protection Plans effectively. We’ll also provide the point of purchase materials and sales brochures you need to support your sales efforts.
Should your extended warranty customers have a claim, they return the equipment to you for service. Once you’ve repaired the equipment and filed your claim with the program administrator, you receive prompt payment for parts and labor based on the current approved hourly rate and Husqvarna’s suggested retail parts price list.
Please note: Husqvarna’s Extended Protection Plan contracts are available only on new equipment purchased for personal use by a homeowner and cannot be sold to commercial users. Should you accept covered used equipment on a trade-in, or if your customer sells a piece of used equipment covered by an extended warranty, the warranty can be transferred to the new owner, provided you file the simple transfer form with the plan administrator.
The suggested retail price of each Extended Protection Plan contract is based on the suggested retail price of the equipment to be covered. As you’ll see from the enclosed pricing chart, the contract prices are affordable and the recommended mark-up is generous. Of course, you may use the additional revenue at your discretion, perhaps to reward and motivate sales associates, to cover overhead or to give yourself a well-deserved raise.
We think you’ll agree—Husqvarna’s new Extended Protection Plan contracts will add substantial value to your customer service offerings while giving you and your sales associates an opportunity to generate incremental income with each piece of Husqvarna equipment you sell.
We urge you to review the enclosed information about Husqvarna’s Extended Protection Plans right away, and we hope you will feel free to call us if you have questions or need more information.
Sincerely,
General Sales Manager
P.S. Consumer demand is growing fast for all types of extended warranties and the peace of mind they provide, so we’re confident a substantial number of your customers will choose to purchase this valuable protection. So why not get started today on introducing this popular new product to your sales associates and customers!
SecureGuard Equipment Warranty Customer Sales Letter
Mr. Charles Q. Customer
123 Any Street
Somewhere, NC 22222
Dear Mr. Customer:
You know the sinking feeling you get when a piece of your lawn and garden equipment breaks down? How about the wonderful sense of relief you feel when you realize it’s still under warranty?
Now, with our affordable new Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans, you can double the warranty period—and the sense of security you enjoy—on all your Husqvarna equipment still under our original ironclad warranty.
That’s two extra years of worry-free warranty coverage for only pennies a day.
With Husqvarna Plus Extended Protection Plans, you free yourself of all worries about possible equipment failure for an extra 24 months, beginning immediately after our basic warranty expires. The amount you pay for your coverage—either with cash, credit card or through our retail financing program—is based on the price of your new Husqvarna equipment. (These warranties are available only for equipment owned by homeowners for personal use.)
You’ll appreciate how simple and complete these plans are. There’s no fine print to wade through to figure out just what’s covered and what’s excluded.
If your equipment—including the engine and drive system—needs repairs during the two years after our original warranty ends, simply return it to any participating Husqvarna dealer and we’ll fix it.
There’s no deductible to pay and no limit to the cost of parts and labor or the number of repairs you need. Service is available from more than 5,000 Husqvarna dealers nationwide.
You’ll also appreciate knowing our warranties are fully insured by New Hampshire Insurance Company, a member of the American International Group (AIG)—a top-rated international insurer with more than $150 billion in assets and more than $29 billion in annual sales.
