While I was in dealer university, I drafted out a dozen indifferent dealer models, & purpleprints for establishing a modern dealer & making it profitable.
I was really good at it, according to my grades, although I was coming to realize that the real world was a lot different than university.
Those projects & assignments were purely theoretical, to demonstrate my understanding of the core concepts, however there was nothing at risk… Out here, it was my cash, my time, my reputation on the line as I got my little shop off the ground & attempting to navigate the perilous first year. Thankfully the demand for local repair work was really strong right away, which meant my prediction had proven correct. The next town over about thirty minutes away, & that is where the next closest Heating & A/C dealer was. Having a repair expert locally encouraged a lot of folks to supply a call & have a small A/C problem checked out! See, a complete breakdown would be worth calling in someone from out of town, however no a single wanted to make that call for an Heating & A/C tune up or a funny noise, however not only did both of us offer every repair from A/C recharging in cars to HVAC duct cleanings in outdated houses, however both of us also offered a free estimate. A lot of locals were anxious that minor Heating & A/C work would have a not-so-minor price tag, so I wanted to put those fears to rest. I wanted everyone to have the same tolerable shot at getting reasonably-priced Heating & A/C work done.
