How Going for Mobile Oil Change Services for Fleet Can Help Quick Lubes
The saying that old habits die hard is so
true in the industry. To give an example, in the oil change sector, people in
the business of Quick Lubes regard their business model as superior, whereas
those in the mobile oil changing consider their business format to be the best
in the industry. However, both the
models under the right circumstances can work well.
Certainly, it is not expected that WalMart to
buy for their homes mobile oil change, fleet of vehicles for servicing their
customers. However, there exists a very efficient auto center of WalMart when
there is a need to change people’s oil, with cars lined up to get their services.
Obviously, the high-volume with low-cost strategy is doing quite well, and that
makes it a force in the marketplace to reckon with, as there is a high
competition of their price points.
However, it would do well for quick lubes to
own a minimum of one mobile oil service vehicle. This will help in changing the
oil in vehicles of local plumbing companies, delivery companies, two truck
companies, or even government agencies. After all, with an increase in number
of personal cars being done by people at the quick lube, there is a greater
customer base, and those who does a change of their lubrication fluids,
obviously has someone known working at some other company.
This is to say that the social network they
have in the real work should be made use of to take advantage of the referrals.
The mere owning of a mobile change service Lube trucks or vans at the quick lube in the parking lot and having a small sign
asking people for getting their fleet mobile services on-site is going to bring
in few fleet businesses. This is quite easy to perform without costing much,
and with a good return on investment.
However,
if a quick lube does not plan to go ahead with investing in a mobile change
service unit, they can possibly give contract to a mobile oil change company
existing in their local area and take a cut of 20% off the top, and pay the
remainder to their subcontractor after doing the billing. With enough
insurance, garage keeper’s liability and $1 million of general liability, the
deal made by the mobile operator does make sense, and the downside risk is
quite low.
