No one likes to be around someone who constantly toots their own horn. It’s annoying. It gets old. It might even be abusive. Alright…joking aside, we’re here to toot our own horn just a little bit. If it’s okay with you, we’d like to share a story about how darn tootin’ good we are. At Solar Shield, we are proud of the customer service we provide. It’s not about the easy fix to us. We legitimately want the best for our customers and we say that all the time. But what are words without actions?
As we’ve written about a few times before, Minnesota has the most restrictive window tint laws of all the United States of America. We hear story after story about people being pulled over for “illegal” window tint. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a prescription for darker tint, you’re stuck with three options when or if you get pulled over: 1) Receive a warning, 2) Receive a fix-it ticket, or 3) Send financial support to the government in response to your wrongdoing (A.K.A. a fine up to $378.00 according to MN statutes).
We had a customer a few weeks ago come in with a fix-it ticket. This means the police officer was nice enough to let the person go without a fine, but the person still had to pay to remove and retint their vehicle to the legal limit. When this happens, police departments usually request to see the vehicle with the window tint removed and at that point they will sign off on the ticket. Knowing this, we offer to bring the car to our local PD to get signed off, and then we’ll bring it back to tint it back to legal. This saves our customer an extra trip or two and we feel good about taking care of our customer.
Maybe we’re too hopeful, but we believe in good-old friendly service from the olden days. Making the quick buck isn’t us. Developing lasting relationships with our customers is much more valuable.
