5KWIKCOMFORT ®

FINANCING

Boost Your SalesThe Rheem KwikComfort Financing program is designed to do one thing: help you increase sales by making it even easier for your customers to get their new Rheem HVAC system. We’ve added features and benefits that will appeal to you and your customers. Plus, KwikComfort Financing is backed by Synchrony Bank and offers late night and weekend customer service availability to provide support and make the financing process as streamlined as possible.

Contact Information for Canadian contractors: Joe Pulco 1-416-499-7904

Benefits of FinancingBy offering the Rheem KwikComfort Financing program to your residential customers, you’re providing a variety of financing options to help them get the Rheem home comfort system they need on a payment plan that fits their budget.

With stricter regulations and lenders continuing to exit the market, consumers have fewer credit options available to them. Meanwhile, confidence is on the rise and families are beginning to make purchases that they had been putting off. Payment options encourage consumer spending, and that makes financing more important and valuable than ever.

How Financing Benefits Contractors:• Increase sales up to 50%

• Sell larger projects

• Broaden your customer base

• Improve your close ratio

Understanding Your CustomersWhen it comes to financing, there are three basic types of customers:

1. Credit-Smart – These customers are finance-savvy and have money, but they would rather buy now and pay later. WPDI (with payment-deferred interest) plans will appeal to them.

2. Credit-Conscious – These customers follow a strict monthly budget. They’re looking for a fixed payment plan so there are no surprises month-to-month.

3. Credit-Dependent – These customers tend to have poor credit, so they’re looking for a plan that lets them make the lowest monthly payment possible.

By understanding these three types of customers, you’re able to better direct customers to the offer that’s most appealing to them.

Get Rewarded To Learn More!If you’re interested in offering financing, or taking your business to the next level, you can watch the Synchrony Toolbox training videos to learn more.

For each webinar training series you complete, you can earn a $25 Visa® gift card. The links to these trainings and more program information are available on the KwikComfort Financing page on MyRheem.com.Special promotional rates

available for Pro Partners

For more information, visit MyRheem.com, Marketing tab and click on Financing.

6 COMMERCIALFINANCING

Secure More Commercial Customers with FinancingWhether your client is a business, government agency or nonprofit, chances are they’re cost-conscious. Offering payment solutions reduces upfront price concerns, which means customers can focus on the added value Rheem systems can bring their business instead of just the cost. By offering Commercial HVAC Equipment Financing, you’ll boost your sales by helping corporate customers buy the Rheem systems they want at a price they can afford.

The program is administered by GreatAmerica™, the nation’s largest private independent equipment finance company, so you can trust you’ll receive top-notch customer care that makes the financing process simple for both you and your customers.

Note: This program is not available in Canada.

Why Offer Financing?• Your business looks better – Companies that offer

financing are viewed as financially stronger and more committed to customer service

• You get in the door – Many times, clients will call or meet with you to ask questions about your financing options. This additional “face time” gives you more opportunities to demonstrate your capabilities and customer-service commitment

• You sell more – An independent study showed that companies using a finance program secured 15% more new customers who financed than those who paid cash

• Customers buy more – The same study found that customers who financed their equipment purchased 22% more than those who paid cash

• Customers spend more – Clients who finance are more likely to purchase upgraded, higher-end products when presented with finance options; They realize that for a few more dollars each month, they can afford the best product over a good product

Program Highlights• No application process – simply

register online at GreatAmerica.com/Rheem to start taking advantage of this powerful tool to increase your income

• Zero down payment

• For commercial customers only – no residential transactions

• Bundle all equipment, ductwork, installation, warranty and maintenance agreements in one invoice

• Available for transactions of $5,000 and above

• Flexible 12-60 month terms

• 90-day deferred-financing options available

• Subject to credit approval
