Visit Hickleys at the MLA Expo
Hickleys are great believers in meeting our customers face to face, so we are looking forward to meeting readers of Locks and Security News at this year’s MLA Expo.
Our focus for this year’s display will be our two main key programming units: the Smart Pro from Silca/Advanced Diagnostics and the Zed-FULL Plus from IEA. We firmly believe that these are the two premium units for vehicle key programming in the UK today.
Our team are fully tooled up to support you all the way through from day 1 of auto locksmith training in our Taunton training academy, to technical support once you are out in the field with customers vehicles.
We are keen to demonstrate to visitors at the show that adding key programming services to their businesses can quickly be lucrative. While on the surface key programmers appear to be a bit of capital investment, often just programming 1-2 keys a week can easily cover cost of finance for these units. Anything more than this can start to bring healthy profits via key programming services. To help new starters out we will be offering a discounted ‘New Starter Package’ at the MLA show that will include training, equipment, and support.
We are so confident in our range of consumables and our level of technical support that we now offer a loyalty program called ‘Locked In’. The scheme is free to join and offers… 20% discount on keys, remotes and transponders, free technical support, and free extended warranty. All Locksmiths need to do to obtain these benefits is spend a minimum amount on consumables each month. Many of our existing customers have worked with us for a number of years, and we know that once auto locksmiths try Locked In they will realise the benefits they can reap from working with Hickleys year after year.
Visitors to the show will also be able to take advantage of a rare special offer on Advanced Diagnostics Smart Pro key programming unit. The Smart Pro can be paired with their ‘My Keys Pro’ mobile based software that gives the most comprehensive and easy to use video guidance available, to auto locksmiths.
We look forward to seeing you at the show where we will be exhibiting on stand H13.6 & G36 for the duration of the show.
