THE
HOME TOWN
DEALER
I recently heard a dealer acquaintance who had moved
from, a very large city to a medium size place explain the
difference between the two,
Re summed it up by saying that in his large city dealer.
ship he rarely lutew his customers personally and almost
never met them socially. But since moving to a smaller
center the opposite was now true.-he seldom DOESN'T know
the people Who are buying from him. quite a few on a first
name basis and many as personal friends.
He admitted that he now felt compelled to be scrupu-
lously honest with his customers for the obvious reason that
if he ran his business any other way, word would soon get
around and his business would suffer.
This basic truth about the ear business accounts for the
fact that a so-called "volume" dealer Who does not provide
adequate service, can't operate successfully in a small town
or city. He must pull buyers from miles around, usually
on a basis of misleading price ads,
It logically follows that since he doesn't expect Co see
his customers again (the distance involved discourages driv-
ing hack fur service or complaints) this typo of dealer con-
siders his out-of-town buyers fair game for any corner
cutting that will squeeze an extra dollar of profit out of the
sale.
If you deal out of Wingham with this type of dealership
to "save" a few dollars, you may regret it. as thousands of
buyers who !have will testify. See you next Thursday.
