SEASON
Four i mpressive engines. Four sophisticated suspension systems. The G20, QX4,
rP ,
year on advertising, according to Fred,
with most of it going to TV and radio
spots, billboards, full-page ads in the
Yellow Pages, and as sponsoring closed-
captioning on TV news broadcasts. "It's
necessary to use all of these types of
ads," Fred said, -especially the TV spots
because many other window companies
also hit TV hard and that creates a
greater demand for the product for all
of us.
"But word-of-mouth advertising and
referrals are the most important part of
our marketing strategy and account for
a considerable portion of our sales."
Last year, the company paid more
than $250,000 to customers and others
for referrals, which average $50 to $100
depending on the deal. After windows
are installed in a residence, the customer
receives a thank-you letter, including a
request for a referral.
Leads on jobs are phoned in daily to a
squad of operators, then are sorted and
faxed to 55 salespeople, who demon-
strate the product at residences, take
measurements and close the sale, which
averages about $300 per window.
Salespeople are paid a percentage.
Seventy installation crews load their
trucks each morning and head for
homes and condos.
Wallside has about 200 employees,
but the salespeople and installers are
independent contractors. About 150
employees spend 12 hours a day in two
shifts, six days a week, manufacturing
the windows. A new computerized sys-
tem produces the glass faster and more
efficiently, requiring less manpower.
"Making our own windows gives us
complete control of the process," said
Stanford. "We even have two trou-
bleshooters who visit homes every day,
fixing any minor problems that might
arise after the installation. To keep cus-
tomers happy, they even fix leaks and
other things that have nothing to do
with our window job."
Several of the sales representatives and
installers have been with Wallside for
many years. One Jewish family is "mar-
ried to Wallside." Mike Abels of
Farmington Hills met Martin Blanck 30
years ago and has been a Wallside sales-
man for 10 years. Also in sales are his
son, Anthony, of Southfield; his brother,
Sid, of Farmington Hills, and Sid's two
sons, Mark, of Troy, and Steve, of
Bloomfield Township.
Mike Abels visits five to six homes
daily and closes about 80 percent.
"Wallside is the cleanest, most honestly
operated company in the window busi-
ness," he said, "and the reputation that
Martin originated, and is being carried
on by his sons, just can't be beat."
