Toyota Zambia extends sincere gratitude to Mr. Likando Nambayo for remaining loyal to our Brand.

When asked about why he choose this particular Hilux, this is what he had to say. “Let me take this opportunity to first of all thank the sales consultant who was very patient enough to attend to me and answered all my questions (as he smiles). I must inform you that your slogan speaks for itself as am a Toyota Lover. I have   associated myself with Toyota brand for over 18 years and currently own a Land Cruiser Pick-up and station wagon which are still in good condition.  I am very much comfortable to say that my loyalty is not only based on the products purchased but also the aftersales service provisions.  Let me share my thoughts about this purchase I have just made in particular. The Hilux 50^th Anniversary Sport Limited Edition validates my being part of the Golden Jubilee with Toyota Hilux family. Yes, I read from your site and was also told that the Hilux was built to commemorate the 50 years’ existence of the Hilux. Noteworthy is what comes with the vehicle; 50^th Stickers on the vehicle, 17-inch Sport Edition Alloy Wheels and the canopy which is like a bonus especially during the rainy season. This vehicle is unique, strong and the history attached to it just made me go for it- It’s a limited edition.” He said!

Certainly, brand perception is something that is deep routed in prospects’ and customers’ mind which has an effect on brand association, gives birth to loyalty thus resulting to Brand Equity.

A big CONGRATULATIONS to Mr. Nambayo who is based in the Copperbelt – Kitwe for purchasing the Hilux double cab 50th Anniversary. We take this moment to thank you for trusting us and your continuous support.

Wishing you plenty of kilometres and safe journeys in your vehicle across the country.

Toyota Zambia thanks Ms. L. Mkandakanda for choosing Toyota Zambia as the choice of brand.

Congratulations to Ms. Leukanji for purchasing the Toyota Hilux Double Cab. Asked about what made her to purchase the Hilux Double Cab, “I have always been a fan of the Rav4, as you might have noticed, that’s the one am using. Nevertheless, I opted for the Hilux as it was in my budget range. What convinced me was your Tick Tock special sales campaign I saw on your Facebook page. The blue Hilux advert was very attractive. I then decided to visit your showroom to find out more and was assisted by a very well informative sale consultant who I must say made me realise how prestigious yet a utility vehicle a Hilux is.  This particular model is very special because am able to receive emails via Gmail, use Bluetooth and explore the country to unknown places using the Global Positioning System (GPS). That 7inch Multimedia touch screen has more than what anybody can expect to have. As for the Orange metallic colour; it   commands respect and attention, above all a very unique colour for a vehicle.  My product brand research was not in vain. Just look at it (with a smile), I have settled for Toyota Hilux Double Cab, what a good investment I have made”. She said.

Toyota Zambia wishes Ms Leukanji a safe drives and many kilometres ahead of her.

Once again congratulation!

It is a good purchase and we all are happy, look at how my girls are even smiling”, she said.

Congratulations to Mr Alam for purchasing the Hilux Double Cab. When asked why he decided to buy the Hilux, this is what he had to say: “The first thing that caught my attention was the special price offer. This indeed is a good way to start a year with such great offer from Toyota Zambia.

I don’t know if you still remember me, I was amongst your first customer that purchased the Toyota Rush. So here I am, I have come back for this Hilux because of its multi-purposefulness. The vehicle will be very useful especially that I usually travel long distances. It is stable and perfect for long distances with a good payload of between 800 to about 900 kg. The engine is designed to keep noise levels down. I also must make mention that I had to accessorise the vehicle with a roll bar, nudge bar and a tonner cover, which is a good way of making customers choose what we want.  Talk of its powerful engine performance, I have made the right choice yet again”, he said.

Toyota Zambia focuses on satisfying customers and tailor services according to their personal needs.

Once again we thank Mr Alam for choosing Toyota as the brand of his choice and congratulates to him for his good investment.

ZAMBIA DRIVES TOYOTA

Toyota Zambia is always pleased to share different stories and articles from a customer perspective. Today we were graced by Professor D. Kunda who not only had emphasis on paying attention to detail but explained why he carefully opted to purchase the Toyota Hilux Double Cab with a Canopy.

“As a Professor, at Mulungushi University, I travel a lot to mentor, lecture and also for my own personal travel pursuit. Therefore, the need to purchase a Vehicle befitting the requirements and beneficial for various reason. So then, I researched (don’t ask me how- as he smiles) and decided to purchase the Hilux Double Cab with a Canopy. The Canopy will cover my items such as books etc; kept in the trailer for safety purposes to protect my items from weather conditions such as adverse sunlight or when its windy. My items will not only be hidden or rather covered up, but will not be damaged as well. 

When I saw the Canopy, I noticed the exceptional style and design which perfectly complements the Hilux. Look at how load capacity has been increased just by adding the Canopy. As you have noticed, aging comes with wisdom and I choose this very one to befit my age, not too fancy not to be seen as ‘excited’, however going for performance, efficiency and long term purposes such as accessing genuine parts and coming back for a service where experienced technical staff will work on my Vehicle,” he said. 

The Toyota Hilux engine is designed to keep noise levels down and efficiency up. In fact, the refined sound insulation can make a driver forget that they are driving a pick-up. Toyota will thrive to serve customers according to what they need and exceed their expectations.  Toyota Hilux comes in different forms- and this particular one with a CANOPY, exactly what the professor needed.

Toyota Zambia thanks Professor Kunda for choosing Toyota as his choice of brand and wish him many safe travels, as he continues being an expert in contributing with creating students/teachers of the highest rank, studying for a degree or a certification to improve their knowledge or career skills at large.

A Big Congratulations to Professor D. Kunda

Do you remember our Customer Mr. Vibetti with his son Alinani during the 93rd Agriculture and Commercial Show? Today we were graced by Alinani accompanied by his Father – Mr. Vibetti and the elder sister – Ruth.

Toyota Zambia through its staff member presented a hamper to Alinani as promised during the live interview last week.

We wish to thank everyone who viewed, listened, commented, liked and shared the live clip about Alinan’s eloquence on automobile industry.

It is a Truth Tuesday for Toyota Zambia – the future generation is so much into Vehicles with emphasis and passion!

Todays’ article is about Brand Admiration. Yes, admired brands that customers love, trust and respect; so much so that they feel some kind of personal connection to the brand even from afar.

So what then is Brand admiration? Whan Park, Deborah J. MacInnis, and Andreas B simplified the term as unconditional love for a company -; interesting!

The emotional process that leads to a purchase of a new vehicle starts with a new development in the consumer’s self-image. That is, the buyers see themselves in a new way — as the owners of that new Vehicle which will befit the status in the community.

The more your brand allows, lures, and enriches prospects, arousing their positive emotions and building their trust, love, and respect, the more highly admired it will be and a thus turn a prospect into a customer. An admired brand offers the greatest opportunity for sustainable and profitable growth. A brand that is seen as lacking in even one of the above mentioned three components of brand admiration, will not be regarded as strongly admired. This is what we experienced from Mrs. Grace Kangongo, our delighted customer expressed and shared her ever existing concealed connection with Toyota Brand and in particular- the Fortuner.

“I have always had the love for Toyota as a Brand, with mixed feelings of admiration and envy. Each time I see someone driving the Fortuner I felt content because I had this imaginary thought of being the one behind the driver’s seat. It is amazing how easily I got so distracted each time I saw the Vehicle. The LED head lamps spoke volume to me, it was as if the Fortune’s eyes (headlamps) spoke to me in an undertone. The exterior styling is suitable for any environment – its strong. Let me also take this opportunity to inform you that the Video clip I saw on your Facebook page convinced me that indeed its pulling power is what we (looking at the husband) have always wanted. We have Children and so the space and safety features is an added benefit, she said”.

Well then benefits that entice customers stimulate their emotional senses which evidently enhance Brand Admirations. The brand’s benefits in this case The Toyota Fortuner left the prospect feeling gratified, engaged, entertained and validated convincing her to purchase the Vehicle and thus became a customer. The more the brand provides benefits, the more customers will come to love the brand.

Toyota Zambia congratulates Mrs. Grace for living her dream by not being in an imaginary seat behind the Fortuner but by living up to her Faith.

“When customers admire your brand, they will defend it, and tell the world about it”- Debbie MacInnis
