On the other hand, if you, the mechanic, aren't buying, he isn't going to stop every week either. I've known guys that worked on race cars in their own one/two man shops that had the tool truck stop weekly. Again you need to be proactive as a salesman and chase the business. We also guarantee and service the equipment we sell.
Our product line now numbers more than 19,000 items.
MAC TOOL TRUCK FRANCHISE PROFESSIONAL
20+ mechanics come out to see your latest and greatest suck money from them tool. Matco Tools is a manufacturer and distributor of quality professional automotive equipment, tools and toolboxes. Sort of like the roach coach pulling up to a construction site. I'm sure there are even more specialty tools and more expensive tools in the truck repair industry or other specialty mechanical repair businesses.īig dealerships are to the tool trucks advantage. The everyday sockets and wrenches just get you in the door the 1st time and keep the good will up when you have to replace them. It seems to me its the specialty tools that make the tool guy the real money. Yep, take a couple of them too in various lengths. Or how about an extension that positively locks the socket on. Beats piecing smaller extensions together. Or how about a 3' long 3/8" extension for those damn transmission bellhousing bolts. If it breaks and needs repairing the good tool truck guy will give him a loaner while getting the broken one fixed. Some extra, outrageously cost batteries, yep, give me 3. For instance, hauling around a air hose 8 hours a day gets old in a hurry. Show my son a $50 something that will save him 10 minutes on a job he does every few days and he will buy it. Besides, After a few years you already own every tool that Sears could possibly sell you.Īs a tool truck salesman you have to know what will save the savy mechanic time. With time being money you don't have time to waste going to Sears or any number of other places to see if they either have what you need or have a replacement for the one you just broke. Everybody scares you about getting into a business, Whittington says.
MAC TOOL TRUCK FRANCHISE MAC
He opted to start a franchise with Mac Tools, because he had bought from and appreciated his previous Mac Tools distributors when he was a technician. However if you are only getting paid by the hour there is much less incentive to buy the latest/greatest tool gizmo. Whittington said he had weighed his options when determining if he should commit to the tool business. My kid probably spends $100/week on an average for any given year. New model years require new specialized tools too.
Time is money to a mechanic when he is getting paid 'book time'. You need mechanics that want to make money to buy your tools. Remember there is also going to be the MAC, Matco, Cornwell tool trucks to compete with. I'd agree with it needs a densely populated area (with mechanic type shops) to make a good buck at it. My son is a Toyota mechanic and I get a lot of insight to his profession.
