We have found it necessary o put our Ser
vice Department on a strictly cash basis. -~ -
- Experience has taught us that this is the on
ly way we can maintain satistactory service..
The success of the Departinent depends up
on our ability to turn out the work gquickly
and efficiently at small - cost. . It .is - plain
that a Service Station run upder. a large,
overhead expense ¢annot possibly do work °
at reasonable rates. ; R B
We cannot afford, thevefore, to saddle. our
Service Department with the heavy burdens
oft maintaining costly bookkeeping and col
lection departments and the losses from bad
debis. - e ; Gk '
, : B
We refuse to burden our customers by
charging high rates to make up these big
leakages. This will all be avoided by doing
work for CASH ONLY. 5 -
We want you and gvery other customer of
ours to aceept this'new ruling in the spivit
in which it is. intended. Everyone will,
hereafter be obliged to pay cash for serviee
work before his car is reledsed from the
service station. We will, of course, aceept
checks from eustomers who are known to us.
It our workmanship is unsatisfactory, it
will be done over free of charge, provided
we are notified Within Forty-eight Hours.
We aim to make ours a model Service De
partment and will be gratetul to our friends’
« Merviee Station.
Delivery of ears will be made enly at our
for helpful suggestions, . ; 1
