Newport Beach, CA Sep. 17, 2007 - Small business owners across dozens of industries, from body shops and auto dealerships, to auto detailers and entrepreneurs seeking to start their own paintless dent repair business has joined the eBay marketplace. This enables them to access the training, equipment, supplies and resources they need to start, operate and grow their own auto reconditioning business. As a result of this trend, The Ding King has introduced its new online superstore for paintless dent repair training, auto reconditioning supplies and PDR tools to millions of potential new customers. They estimate $5 million in global PDR tool and related auto appearance equipment sales in 2008.
Today, there are more than 430,000 sellers on eBay and it’s become an important destination for many small business owners. The Ding King believes it can help customers achieve success by offering a value proposition that comes with providing quality training and guaranteed equipment. As an example, Andrey from Russia, owner of Precision Dent Repair in Moscow needed to purchase dent repair equipment and PDR accessories to train an additional technicians for his growing business. He turned to eBay and spent approximately $3,500 with Ding King, but estimates that his savings equaled more than $1,200 versus purchasing from middlemen in his own country. Another recent customer named Michael from Texas bought himself a new IPOD and took his wife out for a night on the town with his savings. Jennifer and William Jeffries, owners of a Dent and Paint repair business in Minnesota, wanted to expand their services to include Ding King’s Total Recon Program when they decided to look on eBay for some auto reconditioning equipment. Today, they operate a full service auto reconditioning business with an increase in monthly sales exceeding $4,500 per month. According to Sean Elfsten, an Admissions Representative with The Ding King Training Institute, "selling on eBay has proven to be an effective method for attracting new customers.”
Combine eBay with Ding King's newly launched dingking.com websites in August 2007 and it’s no wonder sales are on the rise. "To further meet the needs of our paintless dent repair customers, The Ding King is adding new services that will help address issues that small business owners often face. They include the creation of custom television commercials, customer referral programs and effective PDR business marketing strategies; all aimed to help Ding King customers improve cash flow and increase profits,” says Todd Sudeck, President of The Ding King Training Institute, Inc.
In addition to the new services Ding King offers its customers, we have also secured guaranteed funding for all students seeking student loans for PDR equipment and auto reconditioning training. "Ding King is enabling small business owners to build a richer future," said Allen Oakes, V.P of Admissions for The Ding King's Training Institute. "Over the past ten years with The Ding King, I’ve seen our business and marketing services help small business owners succeed, and it makes me proud to know that our company is making such a powerful impact on our customers lives.”
