• Lowdown: The used car industry should have adequate information about each car on each lot, and the best way to achieve such accuracy regarding a particular auto’s history is to have printed labels on each car window, detailing such critical information as mileage, special features, and life cycle of particular items such as tires and timing belts. All of this information should to be displayed prominently on the inside driver’s side window, and in a professional, standard-looking manner. After all, used car dealers base much of their sales on credibility these days, and they depend on items as seemingly unimportant as your product to build customer trust. The buying public is far too smart to be duped by “lemon” automobiles; those who don’t know a lot about cars are beginning to hire automotive inspection services to check out a car before they buy it. Your main objective in this straightforward business is to sell to dealers on-site, print out the labels immediately, and collect your cash. As at the time of writing this, NO car dealers are practising this which makes you a pioneer in this business!
