FLEX:TRIAL
Traditional hearing assessments only happen in the clinic, a place where clients hardly ever spend time. After that assessment, clients are expected to make a decision to purchase a hearing solution they had never worn before and that they often can't take home on the same day.
​
A trial allows clients to experience the benefits of amplification in the real world, risk-free, without commitment. It’s as easy as that. Whether they’re at a bustling restaurant or in the peace of their own home your clients can hear for themselves the difference that a hearing solution makes. Life doesn’t sound the same every day, A real-world hearing assessment shows clients what they will be able to hear, rather than just confirming what they can’t hear.
​
It’s just common sense to try before you buy. 88% of people with hearing loss considered a trial period beneficial, and 60% considered a take-home trial to be very beneficial, especially those aged 50-59 years.
​
And if there are bumps in the road, you’ll be the first to know. You’ll automatically receive an email notification after three negative ratings or an overall satisfaction rating of six or less. You can then reach out to your client to see how you can help improve their experience.

As the lifestyles and hearing needs of clients evolve over time, they can try a higher technology with no obligation, and choose to purchase an upgrade based on their experience. Keep it simple for your clients and bring the comfort of future-proof hearing solutions to your clinic with FLEX:UPGRADE.
​
With FLEX:UPGRADE, it’s no longer about simply selling a hearing instrument. It’s about empowering your clients with flexible and effective options throughout their hearing care journey.
Here's how it works: if individual client needs, or lifestyles change, you can upgrade to a higher technology level within already-purchased instruments. The best part is that there’s no instrument swapping necessary. All they have to do is pay the difference between the technology levels.
​
Empower your clients with future-proof hearing solutions and builds stronger trust in the clinic. It’s the best of both worlds.
