Why the Traveling Spa Salesman is Not Your Best Option (ahem… Buy Local!)

Have you seen the big hot tub expos going on in our area lately? They’re effective for selling a lot of spas to the community.

But what you may not realize is that the majority of the dealers at those expos aren’t from around here. They come in from out of town with truck loads of hot tubs and swim spas, sell them to local consumers, and then drive off into the sunset, on to their next location.

We want to encourage you to buy local. That doesn’t necessarily have to be from Swim Fitness directly (though we are certainly biased toward the products we offer and our impeccable customer service!), but we want you to see the benefits of buying from us over a dealer from out of the area, which is essentially like buying from a big box store.

First, by buying local, you’re supporting the local economy toward success. It also helps to provide jobs to local residents because, when a business is thriving, more employees are needed to keep it running smoothly. Alternatively, when a local business is suffering because consumers are going outside the local sector to buy, then layoffs inevitably occur.

There’s also the service after the sale that only a local hot tub retailer like Swim Fitness can provide. When you buy a swim spa from a traveling hot tub salesman, where will he be after installation if a service issue comes up? Rather than deal with outsourced service work through a company you’ve never worked with before, buying local means you can request service assistance directly from Swim Fitness, the same company you bought from and people you’ve already met. There’s that local jobs thing again.

Do you know what else a local spa retailer can do for you that a traveling dealer can’t? We can provide you with a stellar warranty! You’ll also get superior customer service helping you to process warranty claims, and if you’re ever confused about what your warranty covers, all you have to do is come into our showroom – right here in your hometown – and we’ll gladly explain it in more detail.

That’s what buying local is all about: supporting your local economy, helping provide jobs to local residents and providing top-notch customer service and support. You’ll find all of that here at Swim Fitness, we promise you.
