bulbs


Recommended Posts

How many different types of bulbs should I be stocking? Is there any kind of bulk way to buy them where I can get everything at once? Trying to implement an inspection process where we check bulbs, wipers, etc and upsell this stuff.

 

How many different types of wipers would you say to carry?

Rooster,

I can not even count all the different bulb #s we stock now. Wagner has a cabinet that you should be able to purchase thru your local supplier to give you a good starting point, but you may need to add additional part numbers. I believe we are stocking about 45 to 50 different bulbs. On wipers we use Anco Profile beam blades. The blades have multiple clips that allow coverage for most every vehicle we service.

They had a starter kit that I believe was around $300 to $400 that gave you 6 each of the different length blades, plus all the different clips. We've used them for 2-3 years with great success.

      A recent study, done by Harvard Business School, concluded that the real problem with attracting and retaining employees has more to do with the workplace environment, not pay or benefits. While the study did find that an adequate pay plan and offering an attractive benefits package did help with recruiting and retention, it’s not enough to satisfy the needs of employees, especially those of front-line workers.
      The study also stated that in 2021, many companies were convinced that giving raises, sign-on bonuses, and other perks would solve the worker shortage problem and prevent people from quitting. However, this strategy did not work. So, what does work regarding attracting quality people and keeping them employed?
      Essentially, it all comes down to the culture of your company.  Management: do all it can to consider the individual needs of your employees. Your employees want to feel that they have a voice, that their opinion counts, and that their role in your company is both respected and recognized. Yes, pay and a great benefits package will go a long way toward making your employees feel secure, but that’s only financial security. People want more than money.
      To attract and keep top talent requires creating a company that people feel proud to work for. You need to reach the hearts and minds of your employees. Become a leader that people are enthusiastic about working for. You want your employees bragging to their friends and family that your shop is a great place to work!
      Step one to attracting and retaining quality employees: Create an amazing workplace environment for your employees!  Trust me, happy employees make happy shop owners too!
