In this episode of Trending Today, we sit down with Nick from Samsung to unpack what it truly means to be Samsung Ready.

From the powerful three Ps—preparedness, people, and parts—to the unseen ecosystem that supports every technician visit, Nick reveals how Samsung is transforming the customer experience through empathy, innovation, and seamless service.
