Geek Housecalls celebrates growth milestone with prize package of one-year free service and Odyssey Cruise for ten awarded to ten-thousandth customer, also issues $250,000 worth of discount coupons to existing customers.
BURLINGTON, MA (PRWEB) June 7, 2006 –- Geek Housecalls, Inc. the New England region’s original traveling geeks announces that it has achieved a major growth milestone with the servicing of its ten-thousandth customer. “We just wrapped up our books for 2005,” reported Geek Housecalls President Dave Ehlke, “and you can imagine our excitement at realizing we had broken through the 10,000 customer mark in December!”
“We’ve been waiting for this,” stated Vice President Andy Trask, “and we’re kicking off the celebration by sending out $250,000 worth of discount coupons to our customers as a way of thanking them for their loyalty to Geek Housecalls.”
At the center of the story, Geek Housecalls congratulates Erica Flynn of Bedford, Massachusetts for her key role. It was her cry for help in the early morning hours of December 27th to Geek Housecalls’ 1-877-4PC-GEEK hotline that set the stage for a late afternoon visit by local Geek Housecalls geek Charlie Hoover. “She was having problems with Outlook and couldn’t install Napster,” says Charlie, “she was also having problems with a firewall that was behaving badly and keeping her from getting set up with a remote VPN connection into her office.” Charlie went to Erica’s house and promptly resolved all of her issues. Neither of them, at the time, realized the significance of that call.
Once the year-end wrap-up was complete however, Andy and Dave, the co-founders of Geek Housecalls, made a surprise telephone call to Erica to let her know of her special status. Reaching her on her cell phone, she was delighted by the news. And of course, Andy and Dave were curious to know about her experience with Geek Housecalls… “The service was great, “she replied. “The response was quick when I called and it was great to have someone actually come into my home to do the work because I sat with him and he was able to explain everything I asked about. He really knew his stuff- fixed my issues quickly and even took care of some other things for me. I was impressed with the cost; it was less than I had expected, and my computer has been running much faster ever since Geek Housecalls came.”
While congratulating Erica for her unique role in the company’s history, Andy and Dave also awarded her a gift letter for a full year of in-home computer service from Geek Housecalls at no charge, and an Odyssey cruise of Boston Harbor for herself and nine friends.
