We don't do a single dealer! Everytime (bar one) that we have done work for a dealer they have pulled our pants down and not been very gentle.
So now when they call up for quotes we tell them it's 0% off our normal rates unless they sign a contract guaranteeing minimum numbers of vehicles each week.
Leave them to the people who want to earn £50 per day.

My dealer discount is based on weekly spend.

Under £100: no discount

Over £100: 20%

Over £200: 30%

Late payment cancels any discount: harsh but fair, I think.

Not at all harsh in my book, late payments strangle small businesses.

Firm but fair.
