Increase Margins and Improve Customer Service Levels for Your Aftermarket Parts With an Optimized AI-Powered Search

Aftermarket Parts Businesses Face Several Challenges 

Managing an aftermarket parts business is a big deal for an industrial OEM. For many industrial OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), the largest contributor to their service revenue is aftermarket parts sales. And if they have a broad spectrum of service products, their spare parts are still a critical part of the value they deliver to their customers. What do you do when those sales aren’t coming in either because your customers have a horrible checkout experience, can’t find the parts they need fast, and aren’t even sure whether they got the correct product?

Now is the Time to Enhance Your Ecommerce Sales for Aftermarket Parts.

But the question is, how do you do that? Your customers’ attention spans are dwindling, and you cannot afford to drive them away any longer because of a poor checkout process. How can you enable easy aftermarket parts e-commerce sales? It starts with your product catalog parts search.

Enable Easy Self-Service for Your Customer starts with AI-powered Parts Search.

The cost of a bad customer experience is a loss in a sale. Give your customers a greater experience with an AI-powered image search, and they will buy more and keep coming back to you. This capability empowers your customers by giving them the power to a 100% self-service, low-to-no touch AI-powered aftermarket search while also giving your aftermarket spare parts customers a B2C-like experience. AI-powered image search for spare parts is a must for companies selling aftermarket products.

Lower Cart Abandonment Rate

When your customers’ attention span is about 8 seconds, you do not have the luxury of time to fix your mistakes. Customers are in a hurry to service their clients quickly, perform field maintenance, and fulfill promises. With the CDS Partable Solution, your customers can quickly confirm part numbers, search for products by serial numbers, and get a visual confirmation of the product. This gives them confidence that they have made the right purchase.
