@AcerAfrica Announces New Head of Commercial - Vic Brits #SouthAfrica #SSA

Hi Friends, 

Acer Africa has announced its new appointment for Head of Commercial in the Sub-Saharan region. Vic Brits will lead the commercial sector of the business, as he aims to increase Acer’s market share in the Southern African Development Community [SADC] and in the Small and Medium-sized Enterprise [SME] market in South Africa, alongside Acer’s channel ecosystem.

Early career

 
Brits ‘first position in sales was selling high-tech Test & Measurement equipment used to analyze and maintain process control and IT systems. Brits say, “This role taught me to apply my technical knowledge in order for me to more effectively manage complex sales cycle while learning to better understand customer needs in real-world environments. This was my first introduction to customer-centric solutions.

Brits experienced a transformation early on in his fast-developing career shortly after Compaq merged with Digital Equipment Corporation [DEC] in 1998. The transition from X86 systems to Unix system sales, was a significant technology advancement, expanding both, his technical knowledge, as well as his ability to understand the complexities surrounding integrated systems.

Brits still attribute this time in his career as one of his highlights, next to relocating to Lagos for two years in the early 2000s to set up a new subsidiary for HP in Nigeria, “This experience presented a definite challenge as I was exposed to different cultures and new business environments which laid a solid foundation for my future forays in cross-continental trade.” 

 

Values and mission
Brits say, “Being part of Acer, a globally established technology brand, has definitely encouraged and motivated me to apply my past experiences to further enhance what Acer has already instituted thus far.”

With this in mind, Brits believe that the most important factor in building a team is selecting people with the right attitude. Everything else can be taught, but the right attitude is an integral requirement for successful collaboration in a results-driven environment.

“To me, success is not only achieving business and personal objectives that I have set for myself but also being able to maintain a healthy work/life balance in the process,” he adds. Brits practice positivity throughout their professional and personal life and believe that positive thoughts lead to positive actions and progressive outcomes.

Acer Africa is delighted to welcome Brits to the local family and looks forward to seeing what the brand has to offer in the near future. For more information, follow Acer Africa on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

Did You Know #UberEats Has These Cool Features? @Uber_RSA #SmartphoneApp

Hi Friends, 

Uber Eats has broken the common stereotype of what food delivery service is. With new useful features being introduced such as in-app messaging, which makes it convenient for eaters to communicate with their delivery partner seamlessly, they are able to deliver on their promises of selection, speed, and service.

In-app messaging is not the only feature to make ordering easier. Here are some of the other unique technology features built into the Uber Eats app:

Personalised recommendations - What do other eaters love? Uber Eats uses machine learning to help surface recommendations such as popular options in the surrounding area based on past orders, 30-minute delivery options, and details like time of day and delivery location.

Filter for the right food - Are you a vegetarian? The app allows eaters to select meal options that suit their lifestyle whether you are a vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free there is something for everyone. The app also allows eaters to look up restaurants according to specific criteria like speed, price, dish information and average prep time.

Thumbs up or thumbs down? - The same way Uber uses the five-star rating for driver-partners, the Uber Eats app provides rates of restaurants so eaters can see how others in their city rate their service. Eaters can also rate a specific meal with a thumbs up or thumbs down, which helps the restaurant to improve its experience.

Order customization - Not a fan of onions or tomatoes? No worries! The app allows eaters to let the restaurant know what ingredients not to include.

Customise the drop-off location - Stuck in a meeting? Eaters can provide specific instructions to delivery partners, for example, telling them to leave the food order at the reception.

Schedule orders - Do you have guests coming over and haven’t prepared food? No sweat, the app allows eaters to plan ahead and make orders in advance. eaters are able to schedule an order anytime up to an hour before the desired delivery window–and as far as a week out.

Order tracking - Wondering what’s happening with your food? Eaters can select “track your order” in-app and watch in real-time as their food is prepared, picked up, and delivered to them.

Simultaneously use Uber and Uber Eats - eaters can pop open the Uber Eats app while in their Uber to the office or home to order food before they arrive. This way eaters can find their food waiting for them when they arrive.

In-app support - Yes, mistakes can happen such as your food arriving cold. In this instance, eaters can use this feature to get a prompt response to their queries in the shortest time possible. The in-app support “Help” service can be accessed within the Uber Eats app by tapping on your profile icon on the bottom right of the screen, then tapping the help icon which will provide you options of issues you can select in order for it to resolve. This helps provide feedback to the restaurants to ensure they improve their service.

Uber Eats has transformed the way traditional restaurant work and are fostering experiments that offer an insight into the future of food delivery.

About Uber
Uber Eats is an on-demand food delivery service powered by Uber. Uber Eats partners with the best local restaurants to get people the food they want - delivered faster. Uber Eats is currently in over 200 cities in over 21 countries and launching more every week. To request a meal, download the free application for Android, iPhone or register at www.ubereats.com.
