What a shop should prepare before becoming a window film dealer

A fitting bay, an installer and a way to explain the product: three things that decide whether a new brand sells in your shop.

Adding window film to a car accessory or detailing shop can raise what each car spends with you. The result depends on how the shop prepares, not only on the brand.

A clean fitting bay

Dust is the main enemy of a good installation. Set aside an enclosed space with good lighting and a floor that is easy to clean. It does not need to be large, only big enough for one car with its doors open.

A trained installer

Installation quality decides your reviews. If you do not have a permanent installer yet, start with an experienced freelancer while you train your own staff.

A way to explain the product

Customers compare price first, then how cool the car feels. Keep film samples to hand and learn what VLT and TSER mean so you can explain the difference between series honestly.

A sensible opening stock

Window film is sold by the roll. Start with the shades most often asked for in your area and add more as demand shows itself.

Warranty

Ask your distributor how warranties are registered and how customers can check them. A warranty that is easy to verify makes the sale easier.
