- No-cost program manages utility connections and other home services -
NEWBURYPORT, Mass. (February 29, 2008)
Mobility Services International (MSI), a leading global employee relocation firm, has partnered with homes.org to offer a new concierge program for its clients’ relocating employees. This no-cost program allows transferees to make a single call to get information on utility connections and other home services in their service area.
MSI Relocation Counselors introduce the complimentary, no-obligation concierge program during the counseling process. Under this program, transferees simply make one call to a homes.org concierge. The concierge will assist in the set up of basic gas and electric service, and will immediately identify the best deals available for satellite television, cable, Internet and phone service. Depending on the area, service providers might include DISH Network, ADT, Vonage, Comcast, DirecTV, Verizon, AT&T, Time Warner and others. The employee can also select home security and other services.
According to MSI President and CEO Timm Runnion, “MSI is always looking for ways to bring value to our client relationships without adding extra costs. We’re pleased to offer a program that helps simplify the settling-in process for relocating employees at no charge.”
Benny Aboud, CEO of homes.org, added: “We’re excited to partner with MSI to offer our concierge services. Our business model is, in fact, to act as a “matchmaker” in the home services arena—by matching consumers to the best products and services to fit their needs. We are pleased to offer MSI transferees any type of video, Internet, or telephone service offered by the providers in their service area and make life a little easier for them.”
