Explaining Intel® processors to customers does not have to be hard - even if they are not technology-savvy. To help them explore their options, consider the following five steps to uncover which Intel® processor will best suit their needs.
Step 1: Determine if your customer has any level of familiarity with processors. Some starting questions may be, “Is there a specific Intel® processor you want to check out?” or “Is there an Intel® processor you have used before and liked? If so, you will be even more impressed with the most recent generation.”
But most likely, many customers are coming to you because they are completely uncertain of where to start figuring out what Intel® processor is a good fit for them, and they need patient and informed guidance.
Step 2: Explain that a processor is often referred to as a CPU; this phrase may be more recognizable to your customer and may help them feel more at ease. The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the main component of a desktop, laptop or tablet that allows it to decode information and perform the necessary functions no matter how simple or complex. Intel® processors are at the core of how your device will perform.
Step 3: Explore what device is being sought. For example, if the customer is seeking a tablet, then the choices are narrowed and therefore result in easier decision-making.
If value is among the most important features in the device being sought, then an Intel® Core™ i3, Intel® Celeron® or Intel® Pentium® processor will provide the necessary power to support typical personal use.
Step 4: Find out what the device will be used for. For customers who expect swift responsiveness and do not want to miss a beat of the world they are immersed in, then the Intel® Core™ i5 processor is a great choice.
Gamers and users who frequently have a need for editing or working with larger video projects will come to rely on the speed and efficiency of an Intel® Core™ i7 processor.
For laptops or desktops intended for Internet surfing, bill paying and emailing, an Intel® Core™ i3, Intel® Celeron® or Intel® Pentium® processor will provide enough performance to keep a customer satisfied.
Step 5: Compile the information you have gathered about the customer to help guide them to the Intel® processor that will serve their needs and result in the best fit for their situation.
Each Intel® processor offers multitasking, power and speed that can create an experience that is a perfect fit for keeping up with the needs of your customers.
