  • Customer comes into the dealership and purchases a used vehicle. You're happy - the time on the lot was only 13 days and everyone is slapping hands - all is good in the world. Only your competitor is going to get the residual sales - many multiples of what you just made on that vehicle even though you spent $200-$600 on customer acquisition costs - only to hand it over to someone down the street. Yeah - the reality is folks with used cars will likely not return to where they purchased the vehicle for service. A big fat "Ooof" for your bottom line. What if you could retain that business moving forward in your shop though? Learn more about how the POV Kit from Wynn's helps you tackle that exact challenge here: https://buff.ly/4gfzdev

    Your customer wants to do the right thing and get their vehicle's services performed and understand the value but they don't have the money to get the full service today. It's no secret that door rates and cost of maintenance have risen across the industry. Quite a few things impact that - pay rates, supply chain, macroeconomic rates, and more with our customers feeling the worst of it. While we have the ability to finance with options like Sunbit - some consumers want to pay cash or are resistant to financing. This is where the team at KT Automotive thinks there's an opportunity gap to fill for consumers looking to keep their vehicle on the road. Meet the KT Automotive Products Vehicle Coverage Program! Designed to be sold in the service lane with the end-consumer in mind - it allows customers to protect their vehicle up to $2,000 in coverage on their vehicle between services in the event that there is an unforeseen component failure on your customers engine, transmission, fuel system, or cooling system. You'll create a great experience for your customer, mitigate risk, increase satisfaction, and keep them coming back for their services by doing the right thing and offering them a solution that meets them where they are. Get in touch with your KT Automotive Territory Rep to learn more about this new offering!

    Reflecting on an incredible experience at the Orlando Region (Ford) Parts & Service Club Conference, held last week from July 25-27 at Rosen Shingle Creek! The theme this year, "Going Mobile," truly set the tone for a forward-thinking and innovative event. We were honored to have the Change Agent Damon West as our keynote speaker, whose impactful speech earned a well-deserved standing ovation. A huge thank you to the brilliant minds from Ford Motor Company who shared their insights: Paul Garcia, Stacy Balzer, Todd Rabourn, Marcus Hicks, Elizabeth Dwyer, and many others. Each presentation was a testament to the innovative spirit driving our industry forward. The vendor fair was buzzing with energy, and the highlight for many was taking a picture with the Winning Ford GT from a previous 24 Hours of Le Mans! Special thanks to Natasha Fay Cox and the rest of the board members for their dedication and hard work in putting this amazing event together. Your efforts made this conference a memorable and inspiring experience for all. For those who were lucky enough to be there, I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback. What was your favorite part of the conference? What can we do better? Let's keep the conversation going and continue to drive innovation in the automotive industry! #ford #goingmobile #innovation #thankyou #mobile #fordgt

    We chose to partner with Wynn's USA and Rain-X for their unmatched product performance and their close partnerships with the OEMs. This week, the team took to Ford's 2024 Orland Parts & Service Conference where hundreds of Fixed Ops professionals come together to learn best practices, drive industry innovation, and solve tough challenges. We got to chat with some respected industry leaders - including Ed Roberts and Chris Mangefrida from Bozard Ford, and Sean Marvelle from Tamiami Ford. They shared ideas around best practices and had a candid discussion about the state of the market today. One thing is clear - the landscape of automotive is constantly changing and evolving - which is why Wynn's USA gets in the trenches with the teams we serve to align to their success. A huge shoutout to Ben Keating for lending us the legendary No. 85 Wynn’s/Keating Motorsports Ford GT! Lots of the Ford & Lincoln Fixed Ops pros appreciated getting to connect with a piece of Ford History. Shout out to the team for ensuring the GT arrived safely in Florida. Are you a Ford Dealer looking to drive service center success and enable your team with the best products, service, and coverage the industry has to offer? Please, get in touch with us at buff.ly/3VX3LJL to get started or call us at 855-479-1642.

    A few vehicles getting a fuel system service with our 20104 Kit at American Pride in Hampton Roads, VA designed to clean fuel injector cleaners and remove carbon buildup. With CDJR recommending a fuel service at a minimum every 30,000 miles - this not only helps the customer get more power and better fuel mileage - it’s a way to consistently secure revenue with a product you know will work. The folks at Wynn’s are so confident in fact that they support with a lifetime coverage program that will pay up to $4,000 if the covered component were to fail. The best part? It costs nothing beyond the service simply getting completed. By the way - customers are 47% more likely to purchase a service or good if coverage is attached vs. not. When was the last time you evaluated your programs and services? KT Automotive is offering free consultations in the states of Virginia and North Carolina. Let us know if you’d like to participate by simply signing up at: https://buff.ly/4cynOns or give us a call at (855) 479-1642. #carmaintenance #fuel #autorepair
