FIRESTONE DEALERS PREPARED
TO BEAT MAIL ORDER TIRES
j “Firestone is using its immense re-
sources in rubber plantations, manu-
facturing equipment, warehousing and
service dealer organization to support
the principle that the prosperity of
the local dealer And merchant is vital
to the growth of every community,”
says Charles Rimes, Firestone <lls-
| trtbutor here. “The company’s nat-
*ional tire distribution of 26,000 outlets
is built around local organizations,
which are part of the community, in
: contrast to mail order houses.
I "Values are on the side of Hie man-
ufacturer and the local dealer. The
: mall order houses buy their tires
from a manufacturer who will not put
his own name on them. Firestone
makes Its own product, puts Its name
on It, and sells it through local deal-
ers who spend their money locally.
There is no Jobber or middleman or
mail order system Involved,
j “Our sales are promoted by local
newspaper advertising supported by
national advertising, and the mail or-
der houses through an expensive cat-
alog, which isn’t even print' d locally.
The mail order houses have to main-
tain central warehouses just as Fire-
stone does, and they have to keep
larg organizations tabulating, corre-
sponding and shipping at distant
points, which is a much more ex-
pensive way ot operating than thru
j u dealer organization.”
According to Mr. Rimes, the av-
I erage motorist is beginning to un-
| derstand that he can do better for
' bin)self as well us for local business,
by walking into a Firestone dealer’s
service store. We have cross sec-
tions of the tires, he said, to show
that Firestone offers more tire, for
the same money.
