Finding New Efficiencies: How Chill Replacements Streamlined HVAC Operations with LogistixAI
For HVAC companies, managing high demand and a growing team often means juggling multiple challenges: from handling customer communications to managing technicians and ensuring profitability. Chill Replacements, an HVAC installation company in Phoenix, faced just these struggles. As a business focused solely on installations, they found themselves stretched thin. With limited hours in the day, scaling up to meet customer demand seemed to come with unavoidable overhead costs—until they discovered LogistixAI.
PROBLEM
Chill Replacements had a vision for growth but lacked the resources to scale efficiently. Among the key obstacles they faced were:
Excessive Time on Customer Communications: With customer outreach taking up a large portion of their day between scheduling, parts updates, and same day updates, leaders had little time left for business growth activities like lead generation.
Looming overhead costs: Growing customer demand initially suggested the need for more back office personnel- a costly addition for any small business.
Limited Reporting Capability: Performance tracking and reporting capabilities were limited, requiring Chill to wait for end-of-month QuickBooks statements.
