Habits are a lot easier to make than break

If a client visits your workshop at least 2-3 times within 12 months, they’re a lot closer to becoming loyal, repeat customers (assuming you treat them right). Sometimes, it’s just a matter of getting them into your workshop on a regular basis, even if what you are offering is a free service…. ie. creating a ‘FREE, pre-winter check’ that takes a mechanic less than 5 minutes, this not only builds that trust and loyalty. Winter is a great opportunity to ensure their vehicle is safe and to point out issues that may need resolving in order to survive the chilly months (adding additional work for your business).

• WRAPAROUNDS – Inform your client of a Coolant Flush or Battery Test has been completed.
• FLYERS – Outline workshop services, and/or feature a special seasonal offer. Print as a Hanging Card for instant recognition and value added service!
• SERVICE CHECKLISTS – Warn clients of upcoming repairs or issues on vehicles

Don’t let your customers leave without knowing of any up-coming issues they may face with their vehicle.

Let’s face it, not all customers are created equal. Some will haggle for the cheapest option, question everything you’ve done and then drag out payment, while others’ are an absolute dream to work for. Make sure it’s the dream clients that keep coming back by treating them right, staying in regular contact and rewarding them with products that let them know you appreciate their custom.

Orders of NEW and/or EXISTING ARTWORK are accepted.
