How do I sell the current supplements, new supplement and new ATP Solution Simple™?

BULL’S EYE
The Best – Single Purpose Supplements

Part No. AT-203 Friction Modifier and Part No. AT-206 M Five Alternate were specifically blended for certain transmission applications. These products were tested in the same lab with the same test parameters as the original equipment fluids. These supplements create fluids very similar to the original equipment fluids – BULL’S EYE!

One Band Out from the Bull’s Eye

ATP Solution Simple™, No. AT-216, is a multi-vehicle transmission fluid. Blended for today’s fluid requirements, this synthetic fluid provides a worry-free product and a simple inventory solution.

It’s On the Board

Titanium™ Synthetic ATF Protectant No. AT-217, is there for competitive purposes. For less discriminating customers (installers) who have used a competitive product. Best used in vehicles that do not have much clutch plate wear and have regular transmission services. A vehicle with over 100,000 miles with no previous transmission maintenance service could be a gamble.

“The Freedonia Group, a market research firm based in Cleveland, is predicting that the U.S. demand for synthetic lubricants and functional fluids will expand more than 3 percent per year to $4.8 billion, with growth rising at an even faster pace in volume terms to reach 520 million gallons. Engine oil and hydraulic/transmission fluid will experience the fastest gains, the firm contends, as synthetics begin to penetrate the medium and heavy-duty truck market, and as increasing new vehicle lubricant requirements and growing consumer acceptance further expand synthetics’ share of the light-vehicle market.”
