Marketing Company

Has anyone used a company called AutoRepairMoney.com and their marketing called Auto Repair Dollars? Customers would buy coupons with discounts to be used at your shop. It is no cost to the shop other than the discounts you would be giving. Just wondering if anyone has heard of them or used them and your exprience with them.

Their website doesn't work? You can't click on anything. Would make me suspicious.

I don't like to make quick decisions without knowing what im getting myself into. Sales people always try to get you to do it now and I don't roll that way. AAA is endorsing this company and it still made me feel uncomfotable. There was no cost to me other than dicounted repair work. I talked to another local AAA shop and he felt the same as myself. It looks like we're all on the same page on this. Thanks for your responses.

The reason why the website is not working, is that the website will not be active until January 1. it is a new AAA North Jersey approved progam with many of their Approved auto repair shops participating. If you want more information contact us at 866-779-8996 or [email protected] and after website launch [email protected]. thanks

The website, as far as it went worked fine for me. when I entered a zip code it entered a circular argument where it kept returning to the "Enter Zip Code" screen. I assume that is becaase there are no participating shops in those zip codes, but it owuld be nice to be told so instead of it looking like it doesn't work. And a few sample zip codes for ASO members to play with would be nice. I was put off by the discounts of 25-30% though. If I want to cut my own throat there are ways locally to do that.

We are still tweaking the website, and are only starting our program in Northern New Jersey with the AAA North Jersey club. Put in zip code 07470 if you want to see the whole site. As for cost, we are prepared to show every shop that not only is this cheaper than what your cost of advertiisng is now, but it brings guaranteed qualified buyers not leads or shoppers with no risky advertisng costs to the shop, a win -win win. Call me if you are interested 805-708-5333 or [email protected]. to re-iterate, since you pay us nothing and get extra business on our advertising dollars, you have nothing to lose by contacting us. We do not ask for any money or long term commitments. Don't be put off by the discounts, as they actually work out to be a much cheaper cost for getting a new customer, and we can show you why. Thanks for your interest
