By: Independent We Stand When it comes to taking care of your home and lawn, you need tools that will work and partners you can count on. That’s where local outdoor power equipment stores, like J & J Small Engine Clinic, come in handy. These stores offer quality products, expert advice, top-notch service and an incomparable commitment to the community. Local businesses are known for their outstanding customer service, which makes them the best place to find products and ask questions. Is your lawnmower making an unfamiliar (and unattractive) noise? Are you unsure about the difference between a trimmer and an edger? These questions are best answered by an expert – someone who has used the products in his or her own life and knows how to take care of them. At local outdoor power equipment stores, employees take a personal approach to each customer’s project, and they make recommendations based on years of personal experience. When your equipment needs servicing, they’ll even keep you updated on the progress. You take your home and lawn seriously, and so do local businesses. Local businesses also take the community seriously. They support the local community by returning more than 50 percent of their revenue to the local economy. (Their chain competitors, however, reinvest less than 14 percent of their revenues locally.) What’s more, local businesses have been proven to raise home values in the communities they serve. According to a study by American Express, neighborhoods with thriving local businesses can see home values 50 percent higher than those without. It’s these community-wide benefits, coupled with the superb customer service experience, that makes locally owned, independent outdoor power equipment stores worth the trip. Local businesses are more invested in your project and your community, making them good allies and valuable resources. Whether you’re a seasoned handyman or a green DIY’er, local outdoor power equipment stores will have the tools, answers and services you need to get the job done right, as well as the support your community needs to continue thriving.
