Batteries Plus - A Proven Concept With Multiple Revenue Streams
Retail
As "America's Battery Experts", we offer private label and
national-brand batteries for computers, cell phones, camcorders, toys,
watches, vehicles, and hundreds of other consumer products.
Batteries Plus offers convenient, one-stop shopping for all consumer
power needs. In fact, large retailers often refer their customers to
Batteries Plus for hard-to-find batteries.
Commercial
Businesses have a growing need for batteries - in fact, commercial or
wholesale business can account for as much as 50% of the gross sales of
a Batteries Plus store. We offer commercial customers expert advice, a
full line of batteries, personal service, open account billing and
convenient, on-time delivery.
Tech Center
An on-site Tech Center differentiates Batteries Plus from other sources
of supply. Capabilities include custom battery pack assembly and the
testing, conditioning and rebuilding of battery packs for many common
and uncommon tools and appliances.
National Accounts
Our National Accounts program offers a streamlined approach for
nationwide companies to work with a single-source battery supplier. The
program eliminates unnecessary layers of distribution in the supply
chain allowing the best combination of product availability, speed of
delivery, and simplicity in ordering and purchasing. We cater our
services to a company's needs to maintain current accounts and
continually attract new businesses to this program.
Ecommerce
Our e-commerce site offers more than 900 items that customers can
purchase from their homes. The site includes an efficient checkout
process, customer management, wish list capabilities, online order
history, and an easy reorder process. The Store Locator is a key
feature to increase store visibility, provide address location with an
interactive map, hours, driving directions, and in-store coupons. Not
only does the e-commerce site drive more foot traffic to the stores, it
also provides an outlet for new customers to learn about us. It's just
another way we connect customers to our products!
All five revenue sources provide a diverse customer base resulting in a
steady stream of repeat business for the Batteries Plus franchisee
whose store is properly marketed, merchandised and managed.
