The Big Problem with Old Fleet Trucks

Sometimes you got to put them down.

Old, Busted Trucks

Sup,

It is reported that home services have grown to $500 billion dollar industry in the US. And that means a whole lot of fleet vehicles.

If you’re a business looking to scale, the question becomes:

How do you handle your fleet? Buy? Lease? Old? New? Brand? Size?

It can be a lot to handle in a hurry, especially if you’re coming out of an acquisition.

If you need to lighten the load without sacrificing quality—or losing track of your leads— then you absolutely should look at Hatch as your main way to stay in contact with your customers.

We made the switch to Hatch this year as a way to stop letting customer follow-ups fall through the cracks. Before, our CSRs and sales teams were spending a lot of time and energy on it.

And we were still letting customers fall through the cracks. We haven’t missed a single follow-up since the switch.

We’re seeing more responses and bigger closing rates, all while we make sure customers don’t miss new offers and promotions.

Start scaling with Hatch—check them out now.

Hatch is fantastic, but it can’t get your trucks up to snuff. That’s all up to you.

Time to talk today about what to keep in mind when it comes to your fleet, the struggle of older trucks, and leasing versus owning.

Let’s do it.

  • Old vehicles are more than just repair costs.

  • The strategy: Cycling Your Fleet.
