In this episode…

If you are the owner of an auto repair or tire shop, have you noticed that you haven’t seen several of your quality, loyal customers in the last 18 months? Maybe it’s time to help them realize they haven’t seen you either! What if there were a way that was almost certain to bring them back to your shop? If you’re ready to start serving your best customers again, you don’t want to miss this episode of the Gain Traction podcast!

Just because it’s been a while since you’ve seen someone who was once a regular customer at your shop doesn’t mean you never have to see them again. According to Neal Maier from Tread Partners, good customers often get sidetracked by traveling, quick oil changes, and coupons. It’s not that they don’t like your shop anymore — they just need a gentle reminder that you’re still there for them.

In this Gain Traction episode, Neal joins Mike Edge to introduce ReTread, Tread Partner’s reengagement program to win back previous customers. Neal guarantees that any shop owner who uses ReTread to bring old customers back through their doors will see an income of ten dollars for every one dollar spent. Tune in to hear how you can serve some familiar faces once again!

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: 

• Neal Maier explains how the idea for ReTread came about
• How ReTread helps auto repair and tire shops reconnect with customers they haven’t seen for a while
• Why shops who use ReTread are guaranteed a ten dollar return on every one dollar they spend
• Identifying which previous customers ReTread will target
• The advantages of targeting known, qualified customers over acquiring new, unknown customers
• Why 90 days is a good amount of time for ReTread to bring old customers back
