Hamilton Addresses W.A. • ee 4, Belmore Personal Notes ; 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.
