Challenge the Status Quo and Grow Your Business with Prestone
Episode 321: In this week’s episode we start by talking about 3 common ideas in heavy-duty parts that need to be challenged. First, how total cost of operation should be considered over purchase price. Second, how salespeople are not usually able to both capture new business and nurture existing business; these take separate skill sets and different personality traits. Third, how experience in automotive does not always prepare you for working in heavy-duty.
Our guest interview is with Colin Dilley, the Vice President of Technology at Prestone who we caught up with at HDA Truck Pride’s Annual Meeting. Colin discusses the challenges of making new coolants compatible with changing truck technology, including electric trucks and 3D printed parts. He also gives some tips of what to look for in a long-lasting coolant that will protect your trucks, especially in the summer heat.
