Sports marketing is a key component in DEX Imaging’s brand awareness

Why We Consider DEX Imaging Elite:

  • Service plus. While technical service is a primary calling card for DEX Imaging, it has a vested interest in its customers’ success. The dealer helps clients understand their operating costs and workflow processes so they can improve on business execution. As a result, DEX has cultivated many long-term partnerships with customers that are locked in for the long haul.
  • Name recognition. From logos on the helmets of the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team to extensive signage at stadiums in the markets it serves, DEX Imaging uses sports marketing to bolster its brand nationwide. The dealer also sponsors auto racing drivers and individual athletes across the entire sports spectrum.
  • Enterprise excellence. The company’s enterprise accounts team grew its direct service coverage nationwide from 48% to 75%, more than doubling its service technicians during a 24-month span. The team has successfully transitioned more than 50,000 devices nationwide. In all, DEX realized $3.9 million in cost savings across all channels.
  • Top-flight training. DEX Imaging’s sales training program captured a bronze award during the 2021 Brandon Hall Group HCM Excellence Awards in the Best Sales Onboarding category. Other points of differentiation include high employee retention and a generous sales and service rewards program.
