We refer here to an excellent article that outlines how organized crime is increasing it's involvement in auto theft! Just when the public was feeling confident that the RCMP and ICBC efforts to reduce auto theft were achieving good results, we have a new development to concern ourselves with:

...“We’re seeing two very different forms of auto theft,” said Rick Dubin,Vice-President, Investigations, IBC. “One type of thief is just looking for a car that’s easy to steal, with no approved anti-theft electronic immobilizer, which can be used for transportation, stripped for parts or used to commit other crimes. The other type of thief goes afternewer, high-end vehicles. Although these are harder to steal,sophisticated organized crime rings can make a strong profit by shipping them overseas, chopping them for parts, or changing their vehicle identification numbers (VINs) and selling them to unsuspecting consumers.”...To read the full article, click here.

The etching or anti-theft systems offered in the business office are a practical means to help subsidize your customer's loss in the event of being victimized by auto theft.  These programs typically have a lump sum payout to the client if the vehicle is stolen and not recovered within a certain time frame.  That in itself may not be enough to get the customer excited about purchasing the anti-theft program.  However, once you personalize the presentation so the benefits are specific to their circumstances, your sales will soar.  Watch for our article next week with tips on HOW to personalize your presentation.  In the meantime, print out the list of the TOP 10 STOLEN VEHICLES in CANADA as featured in the referred article....if your manufacturer is represented on this list, it should be displayed for all your customers to see in your office and your sales staff should be informed.  Doing small things consistently produce impressive, lasting results!
