  1. Our engineers did. And decided to do something about it. Previous Next

  2. A Growing Problem It’s a serious problem hiding in automobile ventilation systems. The dark, damp environment found inside modern ventilation systems is conducive to microorganism growth. A prime breeding ground for mold, mildew and bacteria. Every time you get into the car and turn on the fan, these potentially harmful allergens are blown into the passenger compartment and the air that we breathe. Previous Next

  3. A Growing Problem Drivers and their passengers are spending much more time in their vehicles. The average driver spends 1.5 hours/day in an automobile. “Studies have shown that the air inside a car can be a more hostile environment than our workplace or in our home.” Connie Morbach, Environmental Scientist as reported on the Today Show Previous Next

  4. The MiST™ Solution MiST™ was specifically engineered as the solution for treating allergens such as bacteria, mildew and mold. Cabin air filters are barriers designed to trap most air-borne particles, fumes and chemical pollutants, not living microorganisms. Atomized micro-droplets of a specially formulated solution are drawn into an automobile’s vents, penetrating and traveling to where the microorganisms are living. MiST treats the entire ventilation system, including the evaporator, heater core, air ducts and passenger compartment surfaces.

  5. Deodorizers Air Fresheners Shampoos Cabin Air Filters Mold, Mildew Bacteria living inside the vehicle’s ventilation and passenger cabin Atomized microdroplets travel to where the microorganisms live Air-borne particles Chemical pollutants Fumes Keeps them from entering the vehicle and keeps living microorganism from exiting Spills, Smoke, Food, Pets The MiST™ Position MiST™ is NEW and should be treated that way. MiST™ has it’s place, it’s niche in the In-Car Air Quality segment. It is specially designed and should be positioned to treat & prevent living microorganisms. MiST does contain a deodorizer and will deal with most smells, but the best way to deal with extreme odors is to remove & clean the source. Cabin Air Filters work as barriers, blocking and capturing particles. In-Car Air Quality Segment Previous Next

I made a small sign with the price so they didn’t have to ask how much.It is very easy to use and easy to talk to customers about. I like that it is not a pressure sale.

  10. Training the Service Advisor How to Sell the MiST™ Service Display consumer flyers Display MiST™ overview video in customer waiting areas Identify the Problem and Increase Awareness Ask every single customer… “Have you ever thought about the air you’re breathing?” Then hand them a consumer card. Engage a discussion on air quality; in the home, workplace, environment and lead it to the air they breathe in the car. Provide the Solution “The MiST™ treatment is available for $39.95 and only takes 15 minutes. It is a highly effective service that restores in-car air quality by treating mold, mildew, and bacteria. Don’t give it a second thought, breathe easier with MiST™” Previous Next

  11. Training the Service Advisor The Power of the Up-Sell The customer is already in the shop, engaged and involved in getting their vehicle serviced. Offer the MiST™. It adds value that benefits them not the vehicle and more importantly provides the customer peace of mind. So the next time someone is at the service counter, instead of just saying “thank you for your business.” or “Your car will be ready at 3pm.” add, “Have you ever thought about the air you’re breathing?” “We have the MiST™ treatment available for $39.95. It is highly effective at restoring in-car air quality by treating mold, mildew, and bacteria.” “Would you like to add a MiST™, it takes only 15 minutes?” When you up-sell someone who’s already sold you’re more likely to get a yes. That’s the power of the up-sell. While they are in a “buying” frame of mind, give them the opportunity to get even more than they ever imagined. You’ll end up with a happy customer and a bigger sale. Previous Next

  12. Training the Service Advisor The Power of the Cross-Sell/Purchase with Purchase Think about the ways you can partner your services with MiST™, if need be, add to them to give your customer a better experience. They key is to add MiST™ as a companion piece to what you’re already selling. These products can then build on one another, each time adding additional value to each purchase. MiST™ with Cabin Air Filter Replacement Summerize A/C check plus MiST™ Winterize Package including MiST™ MiST™ and Oil Lube & Filter The reality of business is that customers want to be sold. They love to buy for their own reasons. Not manipulatively bombarded with sales pitches or indiscriminately pressured with endless offerings, but intelligently informed, guided and suggested with related, logical and natural purchases that further their goals. Previous Next

  13. Training the Service Advisor Your Obligation as a Service Advisor • You are making expert, informed recommendations as a knowledgeable service advisor • You are informing customers of options they may not be aware of. If there is a potentially dangerous condition with the vehicle (i.e.. Bad tires, faulty brakes, harmful allergens in their vehicles, etc.),it is the advisor’s responsibility to inform them and offer a remedy. To withhold this from others would be selfish, and poor service. • You are in the business of solving problems and giving customers peace of mind. Safety, and now Health is a key component of the automotive market • Any time you can fulfill more needs, address more issues or solve more problems you are easing your customer's life and building trust Previous Next

  14. Training the Service Advisor The Only Way to Sell the Service is to ASK! …every single customer After you've completed the initial transaction or gotten the initial indication your customer wants to buy, try the following : “Mr. Younger, I'd like to take a moment to inform you of a new service. I’ve noticed you have put a fair bit of mileage on your car since your last service – your car is fine, but you are spending more time in your car – have you ever thought about the air you’re breathing? “Mr. Jones, while your car is in getting an oil change, I can run a MiST™ treatment?” “Oh, by the way Ms. Smith, did you know that adding a MiST™ treatment in addition to the new cabin air filters we replaced, the mold and bacteria will be treated as well as the outside air being filtered?” Previous Next
