RPM’s New Direction

rpmauto — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 22:23:04 +0000

Our thought for this week - “Change is the essence of life. Be willing to surrender what you are for what you could become.” Rick and I have decided to close our Abercorn location. Maybe it is because the building is too far off the road or maybe it is the economy but we just could not generate sales like we do at Chatham Parkway. Howard Spiva has been great to us in that location and we are greatful for the opportunitiy he offered us, but Rick and I have never been comfortable with leasing. We will now pursue expansion through ownership which has worked so well for us at Chatham Parkway. We also had a particularly difficult time finding staff who we trust with your vehicles. Yes, there are a lot of applicants but not a lot that we felt would work well in our environment. And, the person who could manage one or both stores continues to elude us. We did have people at both locations that we feel are truly great so it made sense to us to combine the two staffs at Chatham Parkway. What this means to our customers - our turnaround time at Chatham Parkway will be MUCH better! You will have your vehicles returned to you sooner. To our Abercorn customers - we hope that you will make the 10 minute drive to Chatham Parkway if you’ve never been here before and we are offering a 10% discount on your first visit to Chatham Parkway.

“Excellent shop. I was surprised the waiting area was nicer than any doctors waiting room I’ve been in. All the staff was very helpful and friendly. New to the area with my family, I have suggested your shop to everyone who asks me. Thank you also for your reasonable prices. In comparison with other shops I priced for my simple mount and balance of tires your price was near half. Combined with the rest of my experience it was the best bang-for-the-buck in the low country.”

“I’ve taken my vehicle in twice for repairs. Both times I was given a range of what the repairs would cost. Both times the final bill was less than expected and once it was less than the lowest estimate. I’ve told everyone how great the service is and how everyone at RPM goes beyond!”
