There's No Such Thing As A Car Without A Ding The next time you're in a parking lot, look around and notice all of the different types of damage that cars attract. Millions of cars and trucks have some form of minor cosmetic damage: scuffed bumpers, paint chips, dings, dents or hail, windshield damage, a cracked dashboard, curb damaged wheels or a car in need of a professional detail - Ding King can help you to repair them all. Paintless Dent Repair, commonly referred to as PDR, has taken the automotive industry by storm and has quickly become the preferred method for repairing door dings, dents and hail damage. The process is approved by all major insurance companies and is utilized by car dealers, rental car companies, insurance companies and auto auctions. It's said that less than 20% of the general public is aware that dents can be removed without painting. Imagine the demand when the retail public learns about PDR! History of PDR Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) was established in the 1940's on the assembly lines of Mercedes Benz in Stuttgart Germany to repair small dings created during the manufacturing process. These technicians were commonly referred to as "ding men" and would use special tools to gently massage the dents to perfection by working the metal from the inside out. In the early 1980's, PDR found its way into the Midwest region of the United States by an Argentinean body man who became frustrated with having to fill and paint small dings and dents utilizing traditional body shop techniques. Today, the PDR industry has developed into a multi-million dollar industry and is recognized by all major insurance companies and auto dealerships as the preferred method of repair for dings, dents and hail. Potential Customers Equally Equally important as receiving proper training and quality equipment is learning the most effective tools for developing your customer base and increasing sales.  The Ding King has practiced the same marketing concepts as we present to you in our Business and Marketing Courses.  These concepts really do work!  We grew from a "one man in a van" to employing over 250 full time auto appearance technicians servicing over 450 dealership accounts and operating a chain of retail service centers. Our goal is to share our marketing strategies with you and help you grow and prosper by operating your own successful auto appearance business.  We can't promise instant riches, of course - there really is no easy money.  But if you follow the basic concepts we'll teach you, you will be successful in growing your business. Retail Customers Some of the most popular methods for developing the retail business are done via print advertising, yellow page ads, direct mail, cable television and vehicle lettering.  The least expensive and often the most effective method is "word of mouth" referrals from satisfied customers. Over the years, we've found that our business has grown exponentially because a satisfied retail client will tell ten of their friends about how happy they were. This will turn into a tremendous resource for repeat and referral work down the road.  Retail Customers can include: Detail Shops  Car Washes Limousine Companies  Insurance Companies Office Buildings  Parking Lots Fleet Accounts  On any Road or Highway Wholesale Customers The most efficient and successful ways to generate wholesale customers is by face to face interaction.  Wholesale Customers can include: Used Car Dealers  Automotive Wholesalers Body Shops  Rental Car Companies Auto Auctions  Government Agencies
