Spring is here and the weather is heating up and that means one thing for boat dealers – the chance for more sales. Fisherman, divers and folks who just love to relax out on the open water are all more likely to be looking to head out boat shopping now that the weather is more suitable for those activities.
While an increase in sales is certainly welcome in any business these days, increased activity on the lot could pose some issues for a boat dealer that isn’t prepared with the appropriate equipment. Boats are easy to transport when they are hooked to the back of your truck, but dealer lots are often far too cramped for employees to be able to use a full sized vehicle for maneuvering stock.
A piece of equipment like the trailer mover from DJ Products can instantly make the task of moving new and used boats around the lot faster, safer and easier. The small frame size and tight turning radius of the trailer mover make it a very convenient option for navigating cramped and crowed lots. The trailer mover is very easy to control which could result in a dramatically reduced risk of accidents on the lot. This helps to keep valuable employees safe from injury and valuable inventory free from damage.
Using a trailer mover on a lot also allows employees to easily and safely rotate stock when new inventory comes in. This means that lot owners can constantly put the most desirable boats directly where prospective customers will be sure to see them.
In order for a boat dealer to keep up with increases in traffic and to maximize profits in the process there needs to be a safe and effective means available for moving inventory. A piece of equipment like the trailer mover will instantly make a boat lot safer and allow employees to adequately and attentively serve any customer that walks through the door.
