Tow Business Podcast

I stumbled across a few towing news websites I hadn't seen before. Without surprise, the majority of stories were negative but we found one good story about a tower in Georgia. We discuss some of the tops stories we found on these Geocities era websites.

The title says it all. We as an industry have been labeled predators. If you start peeling the layers of that onion off how can we be predators? Why are police departments calling predators to the scene of a wreck? They aren't, they are calling professionals to provide necessary services. 

Thankfully The National open Commerce and Safer Highways Coalition is a group that's finally fighting back for us and they need your help. Visit https://www.nocshc.com/ to get the truth. If someone tries to bad mouth or start a rumor about that hard working group call out the person telling it. Ask them what they have done to help our industry.

There may be a new twist to your competition trying to get you to run a fake call at your expense. Are you thinking of adding an outside salesperson? How do you pay them and when is a new customer actually a new customer? We also have a few more problems invoices to talk about. Keep them coming to [email protected]

There's a new scam popping up among the bad players in our industry. We explain how it happens and why these dirty towers must be stopped. We also discuss the new tactics some Canadian towers are using to greatly increase their odds of being paid for recovery work as heard on episode 139 of The Towing Life Podcast. Finally, we discuss those special employees who think they are too good to be terminated and why do co-workers only come to complain about them after they are gone.

Our industry is under attack by a well-funded, well-organized group using the FTC and FMCSA to accomplish their goals. Unfortunately, it seems that most U.S. towers are still unaware. The National Open Commerce and Safer Highways Coalition needs your support! Please visit www.nocshc.com for accurate, up-to-date information. Please consider a one-time or recurring donation so that they can represent our proud industry in Washington D.C. The coalition is already starting to tackle the issue of low policy limits and non-payment of recoveries. They are fighting for you, will you help spread the word and donate? Imagine if every tow operator in America donated only $5.00.
