How to Sell Compliance— A Marketing Kit Exclusively for NATM Dealer Affiliates By Savana Morrison, NATM Marketing Director
Talking about the importance of trailers built to meet required Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) can be a daunting task. End users do not understand the complex regulations governing compliant trailer manufacturing. They recognize they would not purchase a car without seatbelts, but they do not understand that purchasing a trailer without key safety features can be just as dangerous. With limited face-to-face time with customers, dealers can struggle to sell compliance. But to improve safety and reassure customers that their trailers meet all FMVSS, it is important to sell National Association of Trailer Manufacturers (NATM) Compliance as a key feature of a trailer. To make things easier, NATM has created the “How to Sell Compliance” kit for its dealer affiliates. This kit aims to help close the gap of communication between trailer manufacturers, dealers, and end users by providing trailer dealers with informative marketing pieces to assist them in selling compliant trailers to customers.
