Buying a tyre changer

Investing in a tyre changer allows your business to increase its reach and expand into totally new markets; lucrative markets that can bring in more money every time a customer drives by.

 

The thing is, the automotive repair industry has fragmented and you can't just turn up at a garage and have everything done. If you go in for a service and you need your tyres sorting, your friendly mechanic will have to drive your car to a specialist tyre fitter who has the correct equipment.

 

This is usually because many mechanics believe tyre changer equipment to be expensive and out of reach, especially if they're a new company just starting out and even more so when going through an economic crisis.

 

However, by investing just a small amount of money can reap rewards. You see, although the margin per sale may be low, the volume and sheer ease of sale means you can make your money back quickly - the rest is then profit.

 

Installing a tyre changer is also easy, many of the packages you can get through the sites selling them include a full fitting project. After you have purchased the tyre changer, you will be called up and someone will arrange to have the equipment professionally fitted, usually at no extra cost.

 

There's also a whole range of peripheral tyre changer equipment available that will enable you to inflate, deflate and repair tyres quickly. Many companies we speak to have actually found them boosting their tyre fitting services and leaving normal mechanic and servicing departments behind.

 

In short, expanding your garage or forecourt to include tyre changing equipment and related services can be just the injection your company needs in these troubled times. Simply check out the available items on the many sites you can find through Google (including this one!) and find a good deal - they're their to be had.
