Customer Success Story
2 min. read

Who is Longview Lawn and Garden?‍

Longview Lawn & Garden Equipment was founded in January 1982 with very humble beginnings by K.T Mize. Hard work and personal customer service forced many expansions over the many years. What started out as a hobby has turned into one of the more successful outdoor power equipment dealerships in Texas. With the passing of K.T. in 2008, the dealership continues to move forward with sons Keenan & Corey Mize. They strive to meet expectations with pride and a commitment to service.


Challenges

Longview Lawn and Garden had a few key challenges:

No one was picking up the phone

Voicemails weren’t set up or their inbox was full

Phone calls, emails and direct mail was taking too much time to reach customers - making communication inefficient



Solutions

Kenect had solutions to solve each challenge:

Texts are typically answered within 3 seconds - making texting much more efficient than a phone call

Kenect improved communication by allowing the Longview to text their customers with reminders, part updates, payment links, and more

Staff can now focus on important tasks instead of making phone calls since texting is so much quicker

“We really like Kenect’s website widget tool. People can easily text us questions while checking our site. It helps us get more business because it's faster than email, and we can reply to customers quickly.”
