How do I win fleet accounts for my shop?

You want steady work, but fleet accounts feel out of reach. Here's how Nolavi works through it, the same way a good mechanic works on a car: find the concern, the cause, the correction, then verify the fix.

1

The concern

Nate had two small fleet accounts and lots of open bay time on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

The cause

Nolavi looked at his best fleet customer: a plumbing company with 8 vans, nearby, paying on time. There were 37 similar service businesses within 10 miles.

The correction

We built a fleet service page, ran ads to local business owners, and sent a short intro offering Tuesday and Wednesday drop off with same day turnaround.

The verification

He signed 4 new fleet accounts in 10 weeks, worth about $7,500 a month, mostly on his slow days.
