New Educational Campaign Shows the Right Way to Sell an RV

(Newswire.net — June 21, 2016) Tucson, AZ —Deryle Jensen, founder of RV Wheelator® announced in an interview with You Be All You Are TV, that he plans to use digital media to educate RV owners on the right way to sell an RV, using Webcasts, free reports and YouTube videos to get the word out about a revolutionary movement in the RV industry.

“A lot of the RV owners we speak with are frustrated or even angry about the hassles they have to go through trying to sell their RV,” explained Jensen. “The decision to sell their beloved RV is usually initiated by a change in their lives. Sometimes it’s good news but too often it’s not; a spouse dies or becomes ill, investments underperform or extended family needs help with a financial crisis. Whatever the reason, the decision was not reached lightly and if they’re not careful they become victims of an old, out-dated system for selling and marketing their pre-owned RV.”

Mr. Jensen went on to explain that prior to RV Wheelator® recreational vehicle owners only had three options for selling a Camper, Trailer, 5th Wheel, Toy-Hauler or Motorhome: put it on a consignment lot, sell it to an RV Dealer, or go the “For Sale By Owner” route. All three come with their own set of hassles and frustrations.

In new campaign, RV Wheelator® hopes to educate RV owners about the potential pitfalls of each method and how to avoid them. Using live interactive webcasts, YouTube videos and downloadable reports, they hope to elevate the understanding and prevent poor choices. A few issues that will be covered in the training are: 

1. RV Dealers will buy the RV at Trade-in or worse – Wholesale value, keeping any equity in the vehicle for themselves, leaving a desperate seller in an even more dire situation; no asset – no equity. Consignment lots can help the seller control the resale price, but often charge lot fees or other hidden expenses the RV owners have to pay, even if the vehicle never sells.
    
2. Many RV owners choose to put their RV on the market “For Sale By Owner” to protect their equity and keep control of the sales process, only to discover the advertising media they used has too small a footprint, or they’ve improperly priced the vehicle setting the price too high or worse, undervaluing the RV.

Shortly after immigrating to Arizona from Saskatchewan Canada, Deryle Jensen decided to revolutionize the industry and market RVs the same way real estate agents market homes and in 2012 he trademarked the term Wheelator® a play on words, for someone who sells property on wheels.

RV Wheelator® gives RV owners a better option for selling their beloved recreational vehicle. They list and sell RVs the way real estate agents list and sell homes. There is never an upfront fee. Jensen proudly stated, “We work first, get paid last.”  

Intentionally designed to be a great benefit to both the buyer and the seller, RV Wheelator® applies this tried and true business model as a fresh approach in the RV industry and is getting rave reviews from both sides of the deal. The transaction covers the marketing costs and are only paid when the RV is sold to the new owner – never any out of pocket expenses for the seller.

RV Wheelator® helps the seller set the RV sale price using the same software banks use to set a loan value. “It’s only common sense to price the vehicle at the maximum amount the buyer can borrow for the purchase of the RV, making it easier for the buyer to finance the vehicle and eliminating all the negotiations required to make a deal work,” stated Deryle. “The buyer gets a fair value and the seller gets a good price. Everybody wins because the vehicle is priced to sell using its real world value.”

Currently there are over 8.9 million RVs in the USA. Statistically, each of these recreational vehicles will be resold at least once. RV Wheelator® is uniquely positioned to serve the nearly 75% of RV owners who plan on upgrading their RV sometime in the near future (Source RVIA).

According to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association’s Dr. Richard Curtin, “The data indicates that the basic appeal of the RV lifestyle remains as strong as ever. Consumers want to enjoy the same cherished experiences of RVing while staying within new budget constraints.”

With RV owners 35 to 54 years old posting the largest gain in ownership rates, rising to 11.2%, RV Wheelator® plans on helping this growing segment discover a great value and easy buying experience upon entering the RV market and assisting them with a hassle free upgrade as their budget allows.

To achieve this goal, RV Wheelator® is launching a series of educational webcasts, downloadable reports, and YouTube videos, the rising generation’s preferred source of information, to inform them of a new, innovative resource for the buying and selling of recreational vehicles.
