Customer service is at the core of our company’s business model. The hallmark of our customer service is a custom fitting process for shoe selection. We are the only store in northeast Indiana or northwest Ohio that offers this level of service for customers. We continually receive accolades from our customers and vendors regarding our service, communication, and relationship development. These are not outside relationships for us; we believe that each and every customer, vendor, or external contact we foster makes our business what it is today.

4. Frequent Buyer Program
What is 3RRC’s Frequent Buyer Program?
3RRC’s Frequent Buyer Program (FBP) is a rewards program in which customers and their immediate family members earn discounts for every purchase they make. There are no minimum purchases to make and your rewards never expire.
How does the FBP work?
For every $700 spent in the store, a customer earns a $25 reward that can be used on any item.
We just gather a few pieces of information to enter you in the program and you start earning rewards right away. After you hit the $700 mark and redeem your $25 reward, everything starts over and you can earn rewards again and again. Don’t worry, you won’t have to carry around a membership card. We store everything for you; so if you give us your name, we can look you up!
Does the FBP cost to join?
There is no cost to join. When you make your first purchase at our store, we ask for a few pieces of information (name, phone, and email) that automatically enroll you in the program.
Are there any other benefits to the FBP?
Yes, the plan allows 3RRC to better serve you by easily reviewing your past purchases to make the best possible recommendation on your next purchase. This is especially helpful for those of us who don’t remember the brand or size we normally wear; we store that information too. Finally, the FBP makes purchasing gifts a breeze. Buying a gift for the runner in the family is easy because we know exactly what they prefer based on past selections.
