Services

Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors will offer the following tests for a used car inspection:

Cranking History Test:
This is a test for the strength of the battery. A battery reading above 9.60 volts would indicate a good battery. Alternator amp readings show the alternators ability, or inability, to keep the battery charged.

Electronic Compression Test:
This test shows engine cylinder compression (power) uniformity.  Good compression is shown by a high % number with all readings being within a 10% range.

Ignition Primary Test:
This test looks for bad primary components such as the ignition coil.

Spark Burn Analysis Test:
This test looks for bad secondary components such as ignition wires and distributor caps. 0.8 to 2.3 burn time milliseconds is the typical range limits. Short burn times could be caused by breaks in ignition wires, a worn rotor button, etc.  Long burn times could be from fouled spark plugs, a rich fuel mixture, etc.

Power Balance Test:
This test measures each cylinder contribution relative to the others by turning off the spark plugs one at a time. All of the % drop numbers should be within 10% of one another. Out of range readings will be compared to other tests to confirm a problem.

In addition to these major tests, the following other information will be determined:

  • Life of brake pads and condition of the calipers and discs/drums.
  • Usable life of the tires.
  • Temperature range of the engine coolant.
  • Condition of the exterior body.
  • Condition of instrument cluster and all working electric features within the interior of the vehicle.
  • Condition of the belts and hoses, CV joints and boots, exhaust, suspension components, emergency brake.

The results of the inspection are delivered on the spot in a 100 point inspection regime.  From the information provided with the inspection, the client will know exactly what is wrong with the car.  This is useful because depending on the condition of the car, it might dissuade the person from purchasing it, or will be used as leverage to reduce the price to account for the needed repairs.

Market Analysis Summary

The market for used car inspections is made up of people typically purchasing vehicles over $5,000.  While the cost of the inspection is $100, not a significant sum, not all people get an inspection.  This occurs for one of two reasons, 1) they are unable to due to the restrictive business hours of traditional mechanics, 2) the people do not recognize the strong cost benefit analysis argument for spending $100 to find out everything that could be wrong with a used car before it is purchased.

These people will be targeted with a marketing message that communicates the thoroughness of the inspections, as well as the newfound convenience relative to other service providers. 

4.1 Market Segmentation

Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’ target customer will be a used car buyer, typically looking for a car over $5,000.  The used car buyer purchasing a car below $5,000 typically is looking for basic transportation and is not all that concerned with the possible problems that might affect the vehicle. In general they accept the fact that there are going to be problems with the car and they are not willing to pay someone to tell them that there are a many things wrong with the car which they cannot afford to fix.

Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’ customer is buying a used car for one of two reasons, 1) they cannot afford what the want in a new car, or 2) they recognize the value that they gain by purchasing a used car.  This value is generating by the fact that a new car will depreciate the most, 20%, within the first year.

The target customer has typically done their research and narrowed down their search to a few different vehicles.  They have looked at the car and found that it meets their needs.  The last step is to make sure the car is in good condition.

Total 9.00% 33,457 36,468 39,750 43,328 47,228 9.00%

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

The target  segment will be focused upon using:

  • Yellow Page advertisement: the ad will be used to advertise Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors to people who are in need of an inspection and do not already have a mechanic in mind. 
  • Website: the website will be developed to provide information about Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors services to the public.  The site will be submitted to all the popular search engines so when an person types in a wide range of common terms, Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors website will be featured at the top of the search list.
  • Partnerships with AAA and other similar organizations: Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors will develop strategic relationships with automobile associations such as AAA so that a large number of association members are brought to it.

4.3 Service Business Analysis

The car inspection business is serviced by two types of companies.  Mobile inspection companies such as Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors, and a variety of different mechanics/garages. There currently is only one other mobile inspection service.

There are many different mechanics that offer inspection services.  Some will advertise their service to the general public as well as to their customers.  These mechanics are marketing their inspection service and are trying to derive a decent amount of revenue from their service offering. 

There are other mechanics that will perform an inspection service if it is requested, but it is not marketed as a normal service.

The disadvantage to the traditional mechanics is their hours of availability.  Most mechanics only have business hours during the week.  This is in conflict with the fact that most people who are looking for used cars have jobs during the day and therefore generally do not have the opportunity to use the mechanic-based inspection service because they are typically looking for cars on the weekends or evenings.

4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns

Please see the previous section Service Business Analysis which details the competitors in the industry as well as the buying patterns of the consumers.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’ strategy to gain customers will based on an emphasis of their competitive edges.  These include a sophisticated level of automobile repair expertise as well as the thoroughness of the inspection.   Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors sales strategy will be to communicate these competitive advantages.  The advantage of convenience should be quite obvious to the consumer.

5.1 Competitive Edge

Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’ competitive edge is its level of expertise and thoroughness of the inspections.  Dan, owner and chief technician is industry certified as a master mechanic.  This certification provides him the requisite background and knowledge to perform any and all aspects of the inspection. 

In addition to Dan’s expertise, Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’s other competitive edge is the thoroughness of the inspection.  With the use of sophisticated test equipment, Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors is able to offer the same level of completeness of an inspection that a stationary mechanic would otherwise be able to offer.  No aspect of the vehicle is left uninspected.  Portland Mobile Auto Inspectors’s inspection will provide the necessary confidence to purchase a used car.

5.2 Sales Strategy

The sales strategy will be based on communicating Dan’s automobile experience and the thoroughness of the inspection.  While Dan is capable of performing a thorough inspection, there will be a bit of ambivalence of the prospective customer that must be overcome in regards to how thorough an inspection can be without a garage.

With this information communicated, it will not be difficult to convince the prospective customer as the mobile inspection service is significantly more convenient than the current service offerings.

5.2.1 Sales Forecast

First month will be used to set up the mobile office.   There will be no sales activity during this time period.  Beginning with the second month, there will be some sales activity, and it is forecasted that sales will steadily grow thereafter.  Profitability will be reached by month six.

Management Summary

Dan Jalopee received his BS from the University of Portland in communication. Armed with his education, Dan went to work as a mechanic at a european car clinic. 

As a youngster Dan had learned how to disassemble and repair his VW bug. Dan started at the bottom of the totum pole at the car clinic, changing oil and repairing/changing tires.  Dan was a quick learner and moved up the organization quickly, taking on more sophisticated tasks.  After three years at the clinic, Dan was working on all aspects of car repair.  Dan thoroughly enjoyed his job but he was mentally challenged when diagnosing the problems. 

After working at the car clinic for two and half years Dan became restless and wanted to run his own business. He considered opening a garage but ruled that out as it would require too much capital.  On a suggestion from a friend Dan looked into a mobile car inspection, an unfilled niche, in servicing used car buyers.

7.1 Personnel Plan
