One Company ... Endless Opportunities ...
Work It Your Way
An AMSOIL Dealership is truly a unique opportunity. It is easily adaptable to your level of commitment, adjustable to your time schedule and diverse enough to accommodate your lifestyle. It can be as large or as small as you wish to make it.
Different stages of commitment to your Dealership will also offer diffcrent opportunities and methods for generating sales and commissions. No one way is the "right" way to work an AMSOIL business, and no two paths through the AMSOIL experience are usually the same. The following are the typical stages a Dealership evolves through as the Dealer's level of commitment increases and sales are generated at greater volumes. These stages do not all necessarily flow in a distinct order, and some will probably occur simultaneously throughout a Dealer's business growth.
AMSOIL Product User
Most people become familiar with AMSOIL through the use of the products. A product user is primarily concerned with purchasing products for self-use and may not yet be familiar or concerned with the other opportunities AMSOIL offers. Many AMSOIL product users are devoted to the quality and value offered by synthetics but have not tried selling the products to others yet. They remain dependent on a Dealer or retail account to acquire their products. As they are made aware of the other opportunities that are available with AMSOIL, product users may decide that becoming Preferred Customers would be worth their time in cost savings and for the convenience of ordering product directly from the company. Dealers should evaluate their product users carefully to determine if they would be good candidates for future AMSOIL Dealers or Preferred Customers. Product users may also recognize the business opportunities and determine that they can make money selling AMSOIL products.
AMSOIL Preferred Customer
An AMSOIL Preferred Customer status is often a more comfortable step forward for a product user that is not yet certain an AMSOIL Dealership is for them. Being a Preferred Customer allows an individual to order AMSOIL products at Dealer cost. However, Preferred Customers cannot register others into their down line groups or participate in other AMSOIL programs without upgrading to full Dealership status.
Individuals register as Preferred Customers for $10 US (6 months) or $20 US (12 months).
To register Preferred Customers, Dealers need a G-7PC Preferred Customer Packet which includes a registration form, price list and other materials to help individuals begin purchasing AMSOIL products.
A G-18C Registration Form can also be used to register Preferred Customers. When using this form, a G-7PC Packet will be sent out to the potential Preferred Customer .
Preferred Customers may upgrade to Dealer status by completing a G-18 US Registration Form.
AMSOIL Dealership
With the upgrade to an AMSOIL Dealership, your opportunities for income begin. AMSOIL Dealers have access to many programs that have been designed to increase their profit potential. The AMSOIL Dealership enables you to enjoy the same product discounts as a Preferred Customer but also enables you to sell the products for profit.
From this stage on, your AMSOIL Dealership growth opportunities are completely up to you. If you are content with using your Dealership for the product discount and do not wish to pursue outside sales, no more time or effort will be required. But if you would like to maximize your Dealership's profit potential, the following stages of Dealership development can offer progressively more business and commission growth.
Individuals register as Dealers for $15 US (6 months) or $30 US (12 months). Dealers registering for six months receive a G-7Y AMSOIL Sales Manual.
G-7Y AMSOIL Sales Manual - This sales manual includes application forms and product literature items that have been designed to offer a new Dealer a level of familiarity with the AMSOIL opportunity. New Dealers can consult the literature contained in the G-7Y Kit for information on AMSOIL products, applications, policies and business procedures. When looking for new ideas and opportunities, the G-7Y is a great place to start.
Dealer Business Manual.
G-700 AMSOIL Dealer Business Manual - This business manual contains a registration form, price list, how-to manuals and product documentation. It is the standard business kit for a serious AMSOIL Dealer. The registration term is 12 months.
Dealers can also be registered by completing a G-18C Registration Form and selecting either a six or 12 month Dealership option. The appropriate sales manual will then be sent out to their address.
Personal Sales
Many AMSOIL product users who decide to become registered AMSOIL Dealers try out selling the products first to their friends and family. This can be a great way to start a prosperous AMSOIL Dealership. Friends, family and business associates are often easier for new Dealers to sell to based on their preexisting relationships. You may want to offer them the same opportunities and value that made you decide to become a Dealer in the first place. And if the products and opportunities are to their liking, they may decide that they would like you to register them as Dealers or Preferred Customers in the future.
Catalog Sales
Catalog sales are a great way to earn more monthly commission bonuses with a limited amount of personal selling time involved.
G-100 AMSOIL Retail Catalog (G-300 in Canada) - This catalog has been designed to be the comprehensive sales tool for an AMSOIL Dealer. The G-100 contains virtually all AMSOIL products and their retail pricing information. This catalog can be handed out to anyone who is interested in purchasing products. It includes the AMSOIL toll-free ordering number and a space for your Dealership ZO number. By filling in your ZO number and distributing the catalog at trade shows, fairs and conventions, you generate retail profits and commissions from all catalog sales that are made. The Catalog also contains Preferred Customer and Dealership information, and many customers select those as options.
Internet Sales
AMSOIL Dealers also have the option of doing business on the Internet. Dealer websites come in many forms, from those that Dealers create and update themselves to sites that are created and hosted for Dealers by AMSOIL INC. The Internet is an excellent place to sell AMSOIL products. Being linked to the AMSOIL corporate website allows web orders to be tracked and processed by staff at AMSOIL corporate offices while still generating commissions for the Dealer whose site drew the original business. Dealers interested in starting AMSOIL websites have several options available to them.
G-159 Computer Services Order Form - This form includes four different options for AMSOIL Dealer Websites. They vary in their prices and amount of Dealer participation involved. The form can be found, along with other AMSOIL forms, in the Dealers' Zone under Dealer Downloads at www.amsoil.com
- Option #1: A basic site for someone without a computer. AMSOIL web staff will handle the upkeep of this site, and visitors who request information or make purchases will be identified with your ZO#.
- Option #2: A hosted site that you can modify. Pre-made templates are available for modification.
- Option #3: A hosted site with your personalized domain name.
- Option #4: A self-hosted site linked to AMSOIL INC. Registering your own site allows customers access to the AMSOIL Online Store and more.
Sponsoring
Sponsoring new Dealers and Preferred Customers builds a "downline group." The commission value of your downline group's purchases is added to yours, increasing the percentage of your commission and giving you a bigger commission check.
Sponsoring is the key to building a very large AMSOIL business. By building large down line groups and providing the proper training, there is virtually no limit to a Dealer's income.
The Commercial Program
Commercial accounts can provide a steady source of income for an AMSOIL Dealer. Commercial accounts are businesses which have company-owned vehicles, equipment and machinery that use the quality lubricants and filters available in the AMSOIL product line. These accounts do not sell AMSOIL products, but choose to use them in their equipment and machinery.
The G-1007 Commercial Account Program Packet ($2.00 US) is used to register an AMSOIL commercial account.
G-1007 Commercial Account Program Packet (G-8107 in Canada) - This packet contains all of the necessary forms to register commercial accounts and the information to get them started using AMSOIL products. Once a commercial account is registered, AMSOIL extends them credit, takes their orders, ships their product, invoices the product and collects their payment. AMSOIL then sends the Dealer the commission earnings from the commercial account's orders.
The Retail On-the-Shelf Program
Selling AMSOIL to retail accounts is another way to earn commissions. Retail accounts are retail outlets such as auto parts stores, motorcycle dealerships and automotive service centers. These stores stock AMSOIL products to sell to their customers or install AMSOIL products as part of a service such as with oil changes.
The G-1001 Retail on the Shelf Program Packet ($2.00 US) is used to register an AMSOIL retail on the shelf account.
G-1001 Retail on the Shelf Program Packet (G-8101 in Canada) - This packet contains the necessary forms to register AMSOIL retail on the shelf accounts and the information necessary to get them started working with AMSOIL INC. Once a retail on the shelf account is registered, AMSOIL extends them credit, takes their orders, ships their product, invoices the product and collects their payment. AMSOIL then sends the Dealer the commission earnings from the retail on the shelf account's orders.
