Times Of Swaziland: BUHLENI AUTO SPARES UP FOR GRABS BUHLENI AUTO SPARES UP FOR GRABS ================================================================================ Kwanele Dhladhla on 28/10/2019 16:15:00 MBABANE - Do you want to run a business in the auto parts retail industry, which enjoys resilience even during times of economic downturn. An auto parts store which could be a profitable venture has been placed on the market. Noteworthy is that before you open an auto parts store, you must pick the right location which in this case is Buhleni, which is located at the northern part of the kingdom. It has been reported by professionals that as an auto parts retailer, location becomes important for the viability of the business. Investing in the spares shop makes financial sense given the fact that the town is not saturated. The potential clients of the shop have purchasing power as well. The number of people needed will depend on the size. It was also advised that staff must be familiar with, if not experts in, auto parts and the mechanics of auto parts replacement. “It helps if they have training in the repair and maintenance of vehicles,” the businessman advised. Engine Finder explains that the reasons why plenty of businesses, especially auto spares, fail is they are lacking effort in marketing their goods or company. Even with an auto parts store, you will have to market correctly. Distribute flyers with the information on your parts. You may also distribute business cards to vehicles that go by the shop. Using the contact details on the business card, your clients can very easily reach you. “Additionally, you should have sufficient understanding of the various auto parts so that whenever a customer is searching for a particular spare part you can quickly advise the customer and help them find the product,” it was added.
