Howards auto glass Nc LLc | Application Preview
Howards Auto Glass NC LLC is applying for government grants to secure funding aimed at enhancing their working capital and facilitating business expansion. The funds will be utilized to hire additional auto glass technicians, acquire more work vehicles, and purchase necessary tools to improve service delivery.
The business plan includes increasing the number of technicians in the field and adding customer service representatives to handle new appointments and attract more clients. This strategy aims to boost revenue and potentially expand their coverage across North Carolina.
In justifying their funding request, the company emphasizes its identity as a family-owned business aspiring to become a premier auto glass provider in the region. They take pride in their 5-star rating and the satisfaction of their existing customers, which they aim to maintain as they grow.
Regarding competition, Howards Auto Glass faces larger companies such as Safelite and Gerber. The owner highlights that, despite their competitors' size and financial power, they have received negative feedback from customers who have dealt with them.
The company’s competitive advantage lies in its personalized customer service approach. Unlike its larger competitors, Howards Auto Glass focuses on treating each customer as an individual, offering competitive pricing and dedicated attention to their needs, fostering loyalty and satisfaction.

Self Identified Competition
The top competitors in this area are Safelite auto glass, Auto glass now (formerly Glassmaster's) and Gerber glass and mirror. These are the top companies only because of their size and financial advantages. I have personally worked for the first two and they are not all they are presented to be. Our customers tell us complaint stories all the time. We are more of a one-to-one service-oriented company than the others. We focus on our customers with laser precision and accuracy. We also focus on price line that customers want and love. We basically treat our customers like individuals and not just a dollar.
