AMSOIL
Sales Boost Bottom Line
Quick lube owners and operators report greater
profits selling extended drain interval AMSOIL
Synthetic Motor Oils and other lubricants.
Tom and Kay Garrett, owners of Kwik Kar Lube
and Wash of Grapevine, Texas, are no exception. AMSOIL
XL-7500 motor oils have boosted their bottom line.
They’ve had success with
AMSOIL
High Performance 15W-40 and AMSOIL
XL-7500 synthetic motor oils.
“The XL-7500 oils are the most cost-effective
that we offer, with XL-7500 5W-30 being the largest seller. For those customers
who want the best for their cars, we also offer the
AMSOIL SDF oil filters,” Garrett
said.
The Garretts also have
AMSOIL
Automatic Transmission Fluid available for hard-working, hot transmissions.
“Texas heat puts a lot of stress on our customers’ cars, and the auto
manufacturers are specifying higher quality transmission fluids. Having the best
products available enables us to protect our customers’ cars, and is also
keeping my business ahead of the pack in a competitive industry,” he said.
Recently, Garrett simplified the store’s gear
lube inventory by converting to AMSOIL
Synthetic 75W-90 and 75W-140 Gear Lubes exclusively.
“We used to have five or six pails of gear
lube, plus product in our bulk gear lube tank,” Garrett said. “It often created
problems for my employees to locate and dispense the correct product. Our new
method of having the 75W-90 in bulk handles most of our needs, with the 75W-140
on hand for heavy duty applications. It has simplified our operation and we
haven’t had any customer complaints about price of gear lube service.”
Garrett displays
AMSOIL motorcycle oils, filters and
two-cycle oils in his customer waiting area. “Many of my customers have
motorcycles, jet skis or boats,” he said. “While they’re waiting for their cars
to be serviced they can look at some of the other products they frequently use.
The chrome motorcycle oil filters and 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil attract a lot of
attention, and frequently end up as an added sale on the ticket.”
