When there is a need for tech support, our first option will always be to call ext. 4388.
DO NOT call coordinators directly.
If there is no answer, option 2 will be to send an email to product@carolina.com.
DO NOT send instant messages
Any voicemail or email that requires Tech Support to follow up with a customer, must include the following:
Customer name
Customer issue
Email and phone # – best time to call
Time Zone or location (city, state)
If the coordinator has questions or needs more info about a request: They will reach out directly to the CSR (by phone or email) or call 7050 and speak to a supervisor/GL.
Should the customer respond back to the coordinator with another request/question beyond the scope of tech support responsibilities, they will forward this request/question to customer_service@carolina.com to be worked in LiveHelp.
If a CSR emails a direct question (like requests for component prices or lead times for specials):
Tech support will respond directly back to that CSR via email.
If a CSR leaves a voicemail with a direct question:
Tech support will respond directly back to CSR via email.
If customer wants to order immediately after speaking with Tech Support:
Tech Support will call the main line and any CSR can process the order. Do not try to forward call to CSR who made initial request to Tech Support.
