    A Happy New Year to you, Ben. I hope it brings many more tows! Thanks for all the videos 👏👏👏
    Oh, and.... Someone once asked me if I had a fear of tow trucks. I said,
    “No, I’m just hooked on them!”

    Happy New Year Ben. Loved this one and I must have heard that joke a dozen times and told it hundreds more. It never gets old. But my wife says I never grow up so I must be the same. I've been watching Casey forever and pleased that you like him too. You are oue British Casey, especially in the kindness league. Give Malcom a big fuss for the both of us and hopefully will meet you soon (but not at the side of the road).

    I hope business picks up for you soon . In most businesses theres a lull from Jan-March but I hope it's different in the recovery business. Let's hope for flat batteries and cars spinning off roads... no injuries of course! 😊
    I always think theres an unknown fear as to the cost of calling out an independent recovery company hence people join the big companies or have breakdown recovery on their insurance as I realise I have.
    Wishing you Ben, and your business all the very best in 2025.

    I hate insurance too *but* I have found with the NFU that it hasn't been going up randomly.
    It's gone down consistently over the last couple of years, they've been good to deal with etc etc.
    The only issue I've had was when I first moved to them and declared all the modifications they wanted a letter from an engineer saying that my rear diff upgrade (fitted a torque biasing one) was done properly because I'd done the work myself. Specifically an engineer not a mechanic and they didn't care what sort of engineer which was especially odd. Thankfully I'm an engineer and have worked with lots, so getting a letter was easy enough. They didn't care that I do all the brake servicing myself, that I've swapped the whole front axle or anything like that because they're all like for like. Even if I had screwed up the rear diff it's difficult to see how that would be anything like as much of a safety issue as the front brakes!

    • @Fighting_Torque
      @Fighting_Torque  14 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      That's really interested...I may have an engineering background myself..but my insurance didn't ask for this stuff. Ah well. Happy new year pal

    Happy Christmas to you and your family Ben. Rehoming a working vehicle opens up a new opportunity for it, and it looks like you're doing a home check for it too. I hope something that better suits your business model finds its way to you in early 2025. You mentioned Casey Ladelle (one of the best towing and recovery channels). Casey has a catch phrase: "I never said I was any good at this". But he's great at what he does, might even be amongst the world's best at reversing a semi in tight places . He doesn't sign up to the car organisations to get most of his work either. You can find a similar niche too Ben. Problem solving and customer care look like the added value you bring with you. Social media stories involving good deeds are the best advertising you can get. If anyone sponsors you they know we won't skip the ads because it helps your TH-cam algorithm. If you have a speciality vehicle like the little skid-steer Mr GBD Official brings along then prople will talk about it.

    Ok so we slipped to that level now, don't blame me, you started it.
    Just in case you've had a rough day or you ARE having a rough day.
    Here is a quick 7-Step stress management technique recommended in the
    latest psychological texts.
    The funny thing is - this really works.
    Try this:
    1. Picture yourself near a stream.
    2. Birds are softly chirping in the cool mountain air.
    3. No one but you knows your secret place.
    4. You are in total seclusion from the hectic place called "the world."
    5. The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity.
    6. The water is crystal clear.
    7. You can easily make out the face of the person you're holding under the water.
    See - You are smiling already.

    Insurance works on what the marketplace will stand for. They just wait until customers complain, then react. My house insurance doubled until I questioned it, then they came back and the renewal was even less than last year! 🤷🏼‍♂️

    I got rid of my traders after it went up several thousand when someone drove into my trailer. I wasn't even moving and it was still my fault because she claimed for a front end on her car and i didnt claim for the reflector she cracked (yes, that trailer was well made).

    My motor traders went up this year.
    Went up by £800 and have taken off HGV, motorbikes and super cars.
    It's crazy. When I work on cars we have to go on test drives, so I'm covered.
    Now I get the customer to do test drives.
    Been in the trade for over 40 years.
    My first motor traders insurance but I. 1984 was £300 and I was covered for any motor vehicle.
    I'm thinking of retirement in 2025. Time to call it aday.
    Fuel.costs, insurance, road tax, tools, and I am drawing less now for myself

    How true this is I don't know HOWEVER, it's done on footfall and sales not on retention of customers. Now that there are so many comparison sites you can have exactly the same policy with the same company for cheaper than if you auto renew. I'll take my tinfoil hat off now

    Insurance is a scam . I have 2 policies , 1 for a car the other for a van . I have to accrue two sets of no claims but if I claim on either policy I have to tell the other and lose no claims on both. It's a scam .
