Spencer Boyd Finishes 1st at Talladega with Freedom Warranty

Spencer Boyd at age 24 takes his first trip to Victory Lane at Talladega Speedway on October 12, 2019.

Spencer Boyd backed by Freedom Warranty took the Young’s Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado No. 20 to Victory Lane at Talladega for his first NASCAR win on Saturday, October 12, 2019.

Just two weeks ago, Freedom Warranty signed on as a sponsor for Spencer Boyd‘s run at Talladega Speedway in The Sugarlands Shine 250 truck race. The timing was perfect. Boyd took a win—his first NASCAR top-slot.

“Two weeks ago I wasn’t running this race, and we put this thing together with our sponsors..it’s been a long season, it’s been a lot of fun!”

The 24-year old Boyd won the race after Johnny Sauter violated the double yellow line rule on the final lap of the race held as part of the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series.

Freedom Warranty chief executive officer, Chris Miller, was at Saturday’s race to see Boyd celebrate on victory lane. “Spencer has been working towards this win since he was six years old. He grew up in the racing culture, Saturday’s win proves that he is a true professional ready to compete with the best on the track,” said Miller.

Delivering Customer Satisfaction

Last year, Freedom Warranty made a commitment to its clients: To dramatically improve Customer Satisfaction. One year later, that promise is being kept with major improvements to Overall Customer Happiness.

A comprehensive plan that included educating and motivating department managers and agents has resulted in a composite satisfaction score of 4-stars on consumer review websites.

Specifically, Google Business Reviews added one-and-a half stars (from a low 2-stars) to the composite rating of 3.1 stars. The Better Business Bureau increased by 20-percent to a total 4.74 out of 5 possible.

"Our industry is tough when it comes to customer satisfaction," said Freedom Warranty's new CEO, Chris Miller. "Contracts can be complex and lead to lots of misunderstandings about coverage, but in the end when a customer files a claim they want to be confident that they will be treated with respect and a sense of urgency. That's where we can turn a negative into a positive."

Long Term Effects

Miller admits that it can take months, if not years, to reverse the damage of bad reviews and unhappy customers. "Our dealers and sales agents depend on us to deliver on their promises to customers. We take that very seriously."

Social media and online reviews can have a powerful impact on the marketplace. Putting an emphasis on resolving consumer complaints requires complex coordination between the dealer network, customer service agents and claims teams.

Team Leadership

"Everybody has to be onboard when it comes to improving service. From the dealer making coverages clear to the customer, to how our customer service agents help contract holders do business with us, to how we handle claims," said Miller.

The gains made over the last 12 months mean keeping a constant attention to keep the ratings level and for any improvement, and Miller understands it is a constant challenge to maintain and improve ratings.

"We are laser-focused on customer satisfaction as we continue on the journey to becoming a leading provider and administrator of vehicle service contracts in the industry," said Miller.
