Thank you guys for responding We are limited with what we can offer, as tanks and contracts are currently not in our structure (we do offer floor mats and oil change stickers). We can provide tanks at cost, but do not offer them to attract new business. I suppose I should be focusing on the high level of customer service that we can offer, as well as the competitive pricing we offer. Thanks again for the great input guys!

Thanks! Much appreciated. What kind of problems do you commonly run into that an oil salesman could assist with? Outside of oil change stickers and floor mats, I am limited to "extras" I can supply with the oil itself. As far as service and "same day delivery", I have a much higher chance than most of my competitors.

Hey everyone, I will be honest and upfront, I am not a auto-shop owner. I do work in the industry however, as I represent a lubricant manufacturing/distributing company located in Ontario. I have a question, and I would greatly appreciate some feedback. I know that the second I walk into most shops, as the salesman for my company, I am not met with much adoration or appreciation. I understand this. I know that you are extremely busy, and I am interrupting your day. I DO however come with options that can potentially allow you to earn more money. Which is how I look at it, as opposed to simply trying to make sales and pad my wallet (which is not the case.) What I am hoping to achieve here is some insight on how to get through to my target demographic in a more effective manner. If I can provide a product that allows you to increase your margins, I would imagine that you would be excited about this prospect. This is not, however, how I am usually received. Which is more important to you? Brand? Service? Or does it simply boil down to cost? I apologize if this is perhaps not the best avenue to be seeking information from, but I thought getting a response directly from the source might be the best way to get direct responses. Thank you very much everyone, and all the best.
