There are some things Lakeside Autowerks customers should know about automotive service and repair in Michigan City. First and foremost, Lakeside Autowerks cares about you and your family's safety. And they really appreciate your business. Lakeside Autowerks wants to build a trusting relationship that becomes the foundation for a mutually beneficial experience for years to come.
Building on that foundation, there are some things that would help you understand the Michigan City auto service and repair business better. First, it can be really hard to fix cars. The days of shade tree mechanics in Indiana are long gone. The majority of automotive systems are computerized. It takes a lot of training and very expensive equipment to diagnose and repair modern vehicles.
The technicians who work at Lakeside Autowerks need extensive computer training – not just how to run the diagnostic systems, but also how to search for the right parts, network with other technicians to help them with a difficult problem and pull together a job order that makes sure that each step of the process is addressed.
The threshold for getting started as a technician gets higher all the time and there is a huge commitment to on-going training every year. This training takes time and money. It contributes to business overhead. The average Michigan City driver may not realize the business and environmental regulations Lakeside Autowerks must comply with. Of course that costs money too. Like any Michigan City business, overhead is a big factor.
When you go into a your favorite Michigan City restaurant, you don't value the meal by what the food would cost at the grocery store. The restaurant has rent, wages, insurance, taxes, utilities, professional fees, equipment, supplies – you get the picture. The restaurant has to charge enough to not only pay for the ingredients, but for all these other things as well while making enough profit to remain in business. If you value the meal and are satisfied with your dining experience, you'll come back and tell your Michigan City friends.
It's the same for Lakeside Autowerks in Michigan City. The value of its service is not the cost of the parts they replace, but in your satisfaction with the results. If they deliver a good product at a fair price, customers are happy to see them succeed as a business.
Your team at Lakeside Autowerks loves to see Michigan City customers whenever they come in, but they would much rather see them three or four times a year for routine maintenance than once a year on a tow truck. They want to work together with you to avoid breakdowns.
Tell your friends and family to go into Lakeside Autowerks for their scheduled maintenance, too. That lowers Lakeside Autowerks's marketing costs and helps keep its labor rates down. That's good for everyone.
Give us a call.
