Automotive Businesses:
How You Can Increase Your Profits
A unique and profitable way for Dealerships or other automotive businesses to
increase their profits is to offer your customers an uncommon upgrade. You can offer a custom look with an auto
gold plating package. Most people don't buy a car strictly for practical reasons and everyone wants to feel special
and stand out from the crowd.
Gold Plating car emblems and wheel logos will add a touch of class that is not
available everywhere. If you are selling a new or used luxury or upscale type vehicle, your buyer most likely wants
to be noticed.
There are many possibilities such as: car emblems, hubcaps, wheel logos, wheel
rims, door handles, fenders, bumpers, window chrome, chrome mirrors, luggage racks, grille emblems, full and
partial grilles, exhaust tips, keys, lug nuts, hood ornaments, steering wheel logos or any interior chrome items
(if you remove and apply again for us)
The most common metals to gold plate are chrome, we also do silver and stainless
steel. We have done brass but it is a duller look. One thing to remember is if it is shiny when you start, it will
look like shiny gold. If there are scratches and dullness, order a new emblem or polish and repair before hand
as the gold reflects the metal it has been added to.
Create A Special One Time Offer
To increase sales you may want to offer the customer a better deal if they
purchase the gold plating package that same day (but can make appointment to have it done for another day) Also
if you or the same customer adds another vehicle, motorcycle or faded gold item, an extra discount
can be offered.
If your customer is not interested at purchase time, give them a "countertop
post card" to take with them or just put in the glove box of all your newly sold vehicles. These cards will
have your dealership (or auto business) stamp or sticker on the back to call you for an appointment at a later
date.
Our business name or number is not on the card. You can call us and we will
come and service the vehicle at your dealership or business. If you need any other special service, we are willing
to work it out. Our aim is to please.
You can also give our number out so there is no phone tag for quick
customer service.
There is no hassle or upfront expense to you, we can gold plate a showroom
floor vehicle and pay us when it sells, you choose your markup. We also offer a discount for more than one
vehicle package per trip. Some dealerships we have worked with have doubled their price, it's not uncommon for
dealerships to charge $500 for a standard gold plating package. For convenience, some
businesses give the customer our number so we can give a personal service right at their home, weather
permitting.
To contact us by email or message line see our Contact page. Be sure to let us know if you want
immediate same day service and we will get back to you a.s.a.p. Many times we are called to service within
24hours and the only time we are unable is if we are out of state, otherwise we have been able to give same
day service for dealerships whenever it was needed including holidays and Sundays.
We offer a 1 year warranty on used vehicles or 3 year, 36K mile warranty for
new vehicles and discounts for future touch ups (if needed) for your customer. You can also refer to our
Gold Plating Service About Us page
for more information about gold plated emblem care which should be mentioned to the customer to keep their gold
looking good.
Gold
Care
The gold should last as long as they own the vehicle (guarantee not transferable
to 2nd owner without registering) (It is recommended to protect emblems with the waxless best car polish and not to wax emblems. It is also recommended not to rub emblems
hard to shine them up, just wash with a gentle soap and water, rinse and lightly dry with a towel, that’s
it! (and preferably use the best car polish protectant as we recommend)
So thanks for keeping us in mind and remember you can increase your customer value
by offering an Auto Gold Plating package.
P.S. If your auto related business has a website- please

us. Thank you!
