Stormy weather is always a good opportunity to sell new tyres!
Storms Eowyn and Herminia have been dumping huge amounts of water onto the road, with extreme effects on driver safety. For some, as their cars float down what used to be a High Street, the depth of tread doesn't make any difference - but to the rest of us it's a literal life saver.
Bad weather is an excelllent opportunity to sell new tyres, and with a recent supermarket car park survey finding that 80% of cars need re-aligning that's a huge upsell opportunity. Simply inspecting the discarded tyres will tell a skilled technician whether alignment repairs are required, while a speculative alignment check may reveal even more work to be done. Remember that Absolute Alignment's wheel aligners don't require dedicated alignment bays and can be giving a report in as little as 2 minutes - as we say, wheel alignment is a FAST way to BIG profits.
Over at our consumer web site our colleague Parallel Lines is discussing this point with drivers. Check out what he has to say here.
Stormy weather? Music to our ears!
