Client: Sunstate Equipment
Business: Light and heavy equipment rental
Project: Ad series for trade journals with testimonial (customer/employee) theme
AD NUMBER ONE
"Always right. Always there.”
Scrambling to meet commercial contracts on time and on budget can be tough even without major equipment failure. One call to Sunstate for a rental replacement had our operation up and running again. The account was open in minutes. No red tape. No long delays. Now I understand why so many construction, industrial, and special-events companies rely on Sunstate Equipment. For over 22 years, no one has taken customer satisfaction more seriously.
AD NUMBER TWO
I grew up with Sunstates
I came to Sunstate Equipment as a kid and now I run the yard. They believed in my abilities and took the time to train me. Now I believe in them. For 22 years, loyal Sunstate employees like me have been satisfying customers in construction, industry, and special events. Tailoring the right rental package. Ensuring the ultimate in safe, reliable tools and equipment. In fact, Sunstate employees deliver such exceptional customer service, you might think we own the business. And that’s just the way we feel.
AD NUMBER THREE
“The right employer for people who care”
Working in other rental shops gave me a clear view of Sunstate's level of professionalism. It's a pleasure to work for a company where every inventory item is expertly maintained. A company that sets the industry standard for customer service and on-time delivery. Little wonder that Sunstate Equipment has been satisfying customers since 1977 with the right solutions for construction, industry, and special events. Take a tip from the inside: Sunstate is the first, last, and only word in rental equipment.
