Help me understand this - Car owners (2/N)
We (few friends and I) are planning to start an automatic no-touch car wash, which would primarily reduce the wait time from hours to minutes and expecting an increase in frequency.
I previously stayed in Blr, so there the market is time-sensitive and also need to be washed more often because of traffic, metro and construction dust etc. Here, in warangal, I feel the market is sensitive towards money over time, and city dynamics too change.
I checked with very few close associates here, got mixed reviews. I want to assess on a larger/significant pool.
- Does reducing the queue waiting time, do truly catalyse the revisits more? Or it doesn't affect much.
- Why don't other veteran car washing centers, wants to get into this LOB, only because of high Capex and late ROI, or people didn't accept?
- I see the cars increased a lot on the roads now, so is the drift towards automatic will be accepted too?
- Have you previously tried auto car wash, and how was the experience?
- How many times you currently visit car washing center? What would be the increased number, if this is implanted.
