How to increase revenue in the today's automotive services market

At Capital Equipment we spend many of our working hours trying to understand our customers and the automotive service industry. We have identified a few quick changes you can add to your automotive service business to increase sales and customer flow. Here there are:

1. Car Wash

Nothing puts a car owner in a better mood than having their vehicle cleaned. As an auto mechanic you can do a little bit extra in ensuring your client returns for business by offering a car wash service. You can consider charging for service or offer is a free special on slow days. At Capital Equipment, we believe that a car wash is an easy way to add extra income as the basic investment for all the equipment that can offer from a basic wash to an advance polish and buff could run you a budget of $5,000.00 with monthly material overheads (wash, polish, protectant, air freshner) being around $1,000 and allowing you to do atleast 100 cars. You can also look at this way if you charge $50 per vehicle and aim to do 2 vehicles per day in less than 2 months you would have recovered your investment. 

2. AC Servicing

With an invest of about $5,000.00 you can easily position yourself to increase sales by simply offering basic ac services. An AC top up can take you between 15 minutes to 30 minutes with little to no major knowledge or intense labour. With services such as vacuuming, recharging and ac gas topping up you can again easily recover you intial investment in less than 30 vehicles. Using our 2 car per day average you can easily recover you investment in less than a -month.
