A major manufacturer of automobile tires sells its products at its dealership retail stores. After a tire is sold, the customer can return to any manufacturers' retail store and the tire can be rotated on the car at no expense to the customer

Should a repair to the tire be needed, the customer will receive a discount from the list price bill as a form of a warranty received at the time of purchase of the tire. Identify and explain the selling approach being implemented by this manufacturer.


Relationship selling is being implemented by the manufacturer at its dealership retail stores. The free rotation of the tire and the discount pricing if a repair is needed are means of developing a long-time relationship with customers who will likely return to this manufacturer the next time they need to buy tires.
