In the latest episode of The DL, Diesel Laptops Founder and CEO, Tyler Robertson, talks about the Heavy-Duty Market with special guest David Martin from David’s Heavy Duty Tool Sales. This week’s topics of conversation include the story of how Tyler and David met, how to grow a business, and a little something called "Safe For Work Tool Porn."

A Chance Meeting

The two recalled how they met a Bosch seminar. At the time they were both encountering similar issues with Bosch ESI tools. When Tyler started asking questions the engineers didn’t want to answer, David took notice. 

“I remember looking over my shoulder and thinking ‘I need to talk to that guy’ because my customers are having the same questions.” - David Martin

They exchanged business cards and agreed to talk later about TEXA, which Tyler believed would be game-changing for the heavy-duty repair industry. Once Tyler was up and running with Diesel Laptops, he brought David on board to help him sell TEXA diagnostic kits.

Solving problems brings Success.

David’s Heavy Duty Tool Sales started at David Martin’s dining room table and grew into a thriving business. David has hired several employees including salespeople and an operations director. They are currently in the process of moving into a larger office location. 

The success of his company comes doesn't come from selling tools. Instead, success comes from helping customers solve problems. As David explains...

“...when you’re able to solve customers’ problems, they keep coming back and they tell people about you.”
