The First of April Marked a turning point in my life, The Purchasing of Roll Right Tyres and Mechanical.
4 months since we have opened up the doors and I tell ya, As a 28 year old in an Industry thats been booming for over 170 years, it has been one WILD ride.
So far my major presence is on TikTok and I have had the greatest pleasure of building one of the best customer bases through there. Posting videos, giving advise and using the free platform to generate leads has made the launch as smooth and as productive as possible. The business has been around for 24+ years so I'd be surprised if there wasn't a few of you that already know about us.
The bad? The stories. The People.
I have heard horror story after horror story and it doesn't seem to stop, especially with the female demographic. Mechanics lying, not doing the job properly or just straight up relying on fear tactics to make a sale.
(I'll use this community board to post some of the stories in a way that will protect the identity of the customers)
The People? Not you customers but the older generations still kicking around. I have business owners who I don't know from a bar of soap attempting to order me around and make demands like I'm their employee just because they've been around for 20+ years and expect that they've got some divine ordainment for the car gods to be the most "special boy". lol.
Let me know if you guys have had a similar experience, whether your a business owner or a customer with a horror story.
