If Money is a Factor...
The recent article by AAA stating 25% of the American public would have problems paying to repair their vehicle comes as no surprise to us here at Autopartstomorrow. We hear from our customers every day about how much they were quoted for a repair, and how they were greatly relieved to find us on the internet.
Problems with the economy have long been known to bring about real change in the business environment. When everything is going great, anyone who has a company (for the most part) can make money. But when things go bad, only those companies that are well run, financially sound, and cater strongly to their customers can survive. At Autopartstomorrow we are not only surviving, but we are expanding rapidly! Our business model based on allowing the general public access to our wholesale auto parts inventories, at real wholesale pricing, is one that is greatly needed during times of stress.
Take the example from the AAA article. People were asked how they would handle a $2000 car repair. I don't know about you, but my first reaction would be to pass out. When I awoke I would get to the internet as fast as I could and search for some alternative. That is where we are getting our growth from. First it comes from the consumer that buys his auto parts from us at about half of what it would have been otherwise. Second it comes from the mechanic that agrees to install that part at a discount to keep his shop busy... and finds that our prices are better than even he has been paying for the same parts. Then finally it comes from each of them asking their friends, "Have you heard of Autopartstomorrow.com?"
I love working here because we are offering a genuine solution for peoples troubles. There are enough other things around to worry about. We want to help you keep your car on the road so you can keep working towards overcoming those other things. We will all get through this recession... we just need to remember to help others, get creative with our finances and work to make things better, one day at a time.
