Month: October 2018
You have recently opened a limousine hire service targeted towards tourists and others who are looking to enjoy a luxurious chauffer driven ride on a special occasion. Your biggest problem is that business spikes at certain times during the year (college graduations, wedding seasons, etc) and experiences a lull the rest of the year.
This strategy will help you stabilize your business all year round and keep the cash coming in even during times of traditional slowdown.
Who is your customer?
Be it a college graduation, prom night, wedding day, or tourists day out, your customer is typically a luxury seeker. He or she prefers to drive around in style, but can only afford to do so on special occasions. To work around this, you need to focus on customers who can afford limousine rentals on an everyday basis. Hence your target profile should be large corporate companies who have their head offices located in the vicinity of your service. This way you would be able to ensure business all year round by becoming the preferred vendor for the companys board of directors and other staff entitled to luxury cars.
What is the best thing you can do for that customer?
Corporate offices expect the very best in terms of service from their vendors and are willing to pay a little extra to get it. Offer dedicated cars and chauffeurs to each corporate that signs an annual contract. Offer value added benefits to retain such customers by guaranteeing them additional cars within a one hour notice period and so on.
How are you going to do it?
Ensure you have a sufficiently large fleet of new limousines as well as professional chauffeurs. If required, you could enter a sub-contract with other limousine hire services located around you to make up for excess demand. Create a database of all the offices within a predetermined radius of your rental office.
Invite them, via email, to join your Privilege Club of customers who are entitled to special benefits when they signed up for half-yearly or annual contracts. Incentivize such deals not only with discounted pricing but more through value added services such as dedicated cars and chauffeurs.
Dont forget to say thank you
Every new member of the Privilege Club gets a thank you email and a gift hamper. Also include a link to a survey with the following suggested questions and others of your own.
What is your companys daily requirement of luxury cars?
Is this a fixed or flexible requirement? Are there any times of the year when the can foretell a spike in requirement? What are the key factors that decide their choice of a car vendor service, pricing, availability, newness of fleet, etc?
When to communicate with your members
In order to maintain ties, send out email newsletters on monthly or quarterly basis. Use the newsletter to inform them of any special offers for employees and one time hires as well as of upgrades to your fleet or service.
Of course you must also contact them one month prior to the expiry of their contract urging them to renew it. If you do not hear from them, send a follow up email one and two weeks after your initial mail.
How do you measure success?
Conduct quarterly surveys of your existing customer database to judge their level of satisfaction across various service and pricing parameters.
Build Build Build. Measure new as well as lapsed corporate partners on a monthly basis and compare numbers and turnover with like periods across the past few years. The more people that sign up for annual Privilege Club memberships, the more stable your business will become!
Our granular activated carbons have a wide range of uses for the automotive industry. Boyce Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is excellent for low pressure drop, high-efficiency purification of liquids, gases and vapors. Available in several grades, it covers a range of pore size distributions, surface chemistries, particle size distributions and purity levels. Granular activated carbons are used for gasoline vapor recovery, air purification, catalysis, and decolonization/deodorization/contaminant reduction of chemicals.
Automotive Industry Applications
Automotive Evaporative Emissions
Vehicle activated carbon canisters are designed to capture fuel emissions generated by the evaporation of the fuel tank vapors during day to night temperature variations. Emission regulations vary throughout the world. In the United States (US), requirements call for capturing fuel vapors generated during a 72-hour test, while in the European Union requirement are for a 24-hour test. Fuel vapor generation rates are approximately 25 to 30 grams a day for a mid-size vehicle. Our granular activated carbons are used by leading industries for this application because of their superior volumetric cost, performance and proven durability.
Automotive ORVR
On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR) is a U.S. regulation that requires the capture of fuel vapors generated during vehicle refueling events. ORVR presents a unique challenge for the vehicle by requiring the canister to have high fuel vapor capacity at fast loading rates and low pressure drop. ORVR canisters are typically two to three times the size of a standard evaporative emissions canister because of these capacity requirements. Our carbon pellets are the industry standard for this application due to their high capacity, durability and low pressure drop. Further, our special grade of Boyce carbon helps to reduce canister size due to its industry leading capacity.
Automotive PZEV
Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV) is a California initiated emission category that is expanding across the country. PZEV requires the vehicles fuel system to have no more than 54 mg of emissions during a 72-hour test. PZEV presents a unique challenge to control canister bleed emissions to very low levels, typically less than 10 mg. Boyce special grades gives solution to control canister bleed emissions.
Two-Wheelers
There is a global expansion of canisters on motorcycles to control fuel tank evaporative emissions generated by the evaporation of the fuel tank vapors during the day to night temperature variations. These canisters are typically much smaller than an automotive canister. Our granular activated carbons are chosen for this application throughout the world for their superior volumetric cost and performance and proven durability.
Air Induction Systems
Vehicle regulations in the U.S. sometimes necessitate the control of vapors emitted through the vehicles air induction systems. Unique solutions are required to solve these emissions because of the high airflow within the AIS and the potential to affect engine performance if these airflows are inhibited. Our uniquely designed granular and powder carbon are used to reduce hydrocarbon emissions to targeted levels.
Small Off-Road Engines Fuel tanks for weed trimmers, leaf blowers, lawn mowers, generators and similar products are being mandated to control fuel evaporative emissions. Our granular activated carbons are chosen for this application for their superior volumetric cost and performance and proven durability.
Marine
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is evaluating evaporative emission control regulations for recreational boats.
Cabin Air (Vehicle Interiors)
Exposure to volatile organic compounds that off-gas from interior components in new vehicles is of increasing concern in many parts of the world. Recent tests have demonstrated significant reductions of VOCs in the cabin by the use of activated carbon sheets. Boyce supplies special grades of activated carbon to make activated carbon sheets. This confirms ACS as a low-cost and effective method for reducing VOC content in the cabin before delivery to the consumer.
Hybrid Electric Vehicles and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles
Automotive equipment manufacturers are increasingly turning to advanced engine technology to increase fuel economy. HEV and PHEV, while allowing for improved fuel economy, present a unique challenge for the activated carbon canister primarily due to severely restricted purge volumes. While our carbons are recognized for their superior purge performance, to meet the challenges of HEV and PHEV our carbons are typically combined with activated carbon honeycombs to meet emission targets.
Gasoline Direct Injection Engines
Gasoline Direct Injection Engines (GDI), while allowing for improved fuel economy, present a unique challenge for the activated carbon canister primarily due to reduced purge volume. Our carbons are recognized for their superior purge performance to meet most global GDI canister challenges. Additionally, our carbons are combined with our activated carbon to meet PZEV level emission targets.
Fuel Loading/Transfer Facilities
Bulk fuel and chemical transfer facilities use large-scale activated carbon absorbers to capture the vapors that are displaced or generated during the liquid transfer. The characteristics that make Boyce products the premier activated carbon for automotive evaporative emissions control apply to fuel loading as well.
