The Interrelationship Of Gas Station Infrastructure
As with any component of the business world, the gas station and gas station owners occupy a single role while at the same time being at the center of their own complex web of business, commodity, and financial relationships with a lot of overlap and business possibilities.
Few Americans realize it, but the gas station is not just all over America; it is a uniquely American idea. Gas pumps had existed since the 1880s, as parts of other businesses, but the world’s first purpose-built gas station to open to customers occurred in 1905, in St. Louis, Missouri. The second opened up in 1907, in California, by Standard Oil, which continues to operate to this very day as the petroleum company Chevron.
Today, of course, the gas station is now a fixture throughout the United States; whether in a rural area or heavily urbanized population center, anyone that owns an automobile that runs on gasoline requires a periodic visit to a gas station. However, the gas station itself has undergone major changes in technology and customer service potential in the century since it has been in operation. Gas stations are now constructed far more safely and efficiently, but they are now more than just gas stations. Refueling a vehicle will always be the primary function of a gas station, but they have branched out now in terms of offerings, services, and even value propositions for different kinds of drivers. This means that gas stations offer many more marketing and business opportunities, depending on the type of product or service marketed to them. Many more decision-makers are involved, from the gas station owner to partners in ancillary business operations that work in tandem with the gas station itself.
Premium Brands
One of the givens is that major petroleum companies have an extensive infrastructure for gas stations that spans the entire country. Big names such as Shell, Chevron, and Exxon, to name a few, are familiar sights in American towns, cities, and highways. Unlike other countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia, American gas stations are not owned by the state but rather run by both large, multi-national corporations and small business owners. The premium brands are examples of the larger national and multi-national companies with a large reach.
However, whether large or small, it’s important to remember that individual gas stations are franchises, meaning that even a premium gas station is not run strictly by larger the larger management of the parent company but a business person that has invested in the franchise and is still looking for ways to get a better return on that investment.
Convenience Brands
It’s no longer just big petroleum companies that have the financial muscle to offer franchises around the country. More and more convenience store companies such as 7-11 or Circle K have expanded their services into the fuel provision industry.
For these businesses, it’s a natural extension of the convenience store philosophy of quickly entering a single facility to get whatever goods are required, only now, instead of just snack foods or certain types of grocery product, there is the added lure of being able to refuel an automobile as well. This ability to offer gasoline and a range of food items and other consumer retail products with either large, branded companies or smaller regional or even local businesses. As a result, there is a very large potential marketing footprint in these convenience store franchised gas stations.
Discount Brands
There are also gas stations that offer lower pricing on gasoline, but they are typically attached to a larger retail organization. Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Costco are examples of this type of “discount gas station.” They offer lowering pricing on gas but often require that to access that gas station, a special membership is required. In other words, subscription or membership dues reward the customer with not just special discounts at the store but also lower gas prices should they choose to the station at the discount facility.
In these cases, the gas station owner can sometimes be a point of contact towards larger product or service offers with the management of a bigger company. Products and services may be relevant to the gas station or to the host facility on which the gas station is based for even greater marketing potential.
Independents
It’s not strictly large corporations that have a stake in gas stations. All businesses started out once as small businesses, and in many areas, small businesses still flourish even under the shadow of bigger ones. Independently owned restaurants, for example, have not been wiped out by McDonald’s. The same is true with gas stations, where there are still small, independently owned stations throughout America.
In these cases, the gas station owners are not beholden to a larger franchise protocol, so there’s much more freedom to decide on the acquisition of products and services. Marketing opportunities can make a big difference here if the right product or service is offered to the right gas station owner.
Fortunately, there are a variety of different products and services that can benefit from marketing to gas stations of all sizes, including:
Food & Beverage
Perhaps one of the most popular purchases that people make on the road is something to eat or drink. While big brand snacks and sodas will always be available at nearly any gas station, there’s also a market for premium products and better quality food or drink. This is especially true for regional favorites. If there is a local brand of food, snack, or beverage that does well in other retail settings, adding gas stations to the possible channels of sale can be a good idea.
Accessories
Smaller items are easily lost, especially on the road, and this is one area where gas stations are very useful for drivers. The smaller size of some accessories and the rush people are sometimes in when leaving can require immediate replacement, especially if the accessory was important.
Some accessories are more for fashion, such as sunglasses or various implements for hair like ribbons, scrunchies, and others. Other accessories, however, may be required for recreation or even work purposes, such as needing a charging cable for a device like a phone or tablet or earphones to listen to audio in privacy. Marketing these products to gas stations can make for significant growth in sales.
Financial
Gas stations are also significant real estate and financial investments. It’s not unusual for a gas station owner to have invested a few million dollars into a single franchise facility. This means that for insurance, real estate, or even upgrading purposes to increase value, there are a lot of marketing opportunities here.
By appealing to the economic and business side of gas station owners, different financial products and services can do everything from providing real estate opportunities for expanding other franchises to protecting the investment with a better insurance policy. It’s just a matter of seeing the needs a gas station business owner has and being able to approach them to offer the relevant product or service.
Gas Station Owners Are Made Up Of Different Demographics
In the same way that not all vehicle owners are the same, with different priorities and needs, the same is true for gas station owners. Depending on their location and focus, what is of interest to one gas station owner may not be relevant to another. However, Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing has comprehensive lists for gas station owners all across the country that are not one single, messy list but broken down according to different metrics.
The lists have been ethically and meticulously compiled, with usage from official government sources, such as the Department of Energy and other Federal, State, and municipal agencies. Each list is verified and updated to ensure currency and relevance.
Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing has gas station owner lists to meet any geographic demand. Whether it is targeting only gas station owners in one urban center, like New Orleans, or a broad marketing attempt to approach every gas station owner in the Deep South, the database offers contact details at the municipal, regional, state, and national levels.
Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing also categorizes gas station owners according to different metrics. So if a business wishes to offer food and beverage products and wants to approach only gas stations with a convenience store or other food and drink vending facility, that specific breakdown is available. These contact details exist in multiple formats depending on marketing needs. Physical mailing addresses are always available for direct mail marketing, but email addresses can also be accessed for digital marketing purposes. Telemarketing efforts can use phone numbers, while cellular phone numbers will be useful for any SMS/text-based marketing efforts.
Business Mailing Lists & Leads Require Careful Curation
Business to business (Or B2B) transactions fall under a different class of business interaction. Like the general consumer, no company can do everything by itself and will require an outside product or service to accomplish some of its objectives. However, unlike a general consumer, a B2B transaction can be extremely significant for both parties due to economies of scale. A general consumer might require a single product or one-time service. A B2B transaction could potentially mean a huge volume purchase or ongoing service provision to multiple channels. In other words, B2B can often mean big money.
However, as with reaching out to general consumers, approaching other businesses to offer products or services can be a haphazard affair depending on the kind of access you have. While it’s true that there are fewer businesses around the planet than there are people, simply having the physical mailing address or general email address for a company isn’t very productive. There is a chain of command to the company staff that decides on whether or not to make B2B product purchases or service requisitions, and a general address with a specific name can often put a proposition several steps behind where it needs to be.
Approaching The Right Business
Beyond the specifics of knowing which employees or executives to contact within a given company, there’s also the question of knowing whether this company is even the right one to approach. A company that is in the food and beverage industry, for example, may not have a need for the very specific construction industrial product or service that you offer. And while some businesses may make their focus apparent from the company name, others will take much more guesswork if the business name is just a series of names, as with many legal practices.
There is also the matter of formatting. While businesses respond to marketing just as general consumers do, the type of marketing must be more considered. Companies can’t generally be reached by paying for a television or radio ad or putting up print ads on places like bus stops or roadside billboards. Mailing directly to the business or putting together digital marketing and sending it via email to the right person is often the better way to reach out, be taken seriously, and be considered for the product or service you are offering. This is where Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing can be of service with business mailing lists and leads.
Helping Businesses To Grow
Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing has been helping businesses to find the general consumers that form their customer base, as all as providing business mailing lists and leads for those businesses aimed more at B2B ventures. The company first got its start in the physical, direct mail sector, serving companies looking to grow in the Las Vegas, Nevada area.
Since then, the company has grown to service every market in the United States as well as those targeting the entire North American sector, including nations like Mexico and Canada. For those with ambitions of reaching the international market, such as crossing the Atlantic to countries like France, Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing is ready to help here as well, with a suite of lists and data serving both general consumer and B2B needs.
Maintaining Veracity & Relevancy
Lists are living things that are prone to change. Business mailing lists and leads that were compiled 100 years ago, for example, are no longer valuable today. Many of those businesses are no longer in operations. The people in those staff positions not only no longer work there but are unlikely to be still alive. The companies themselves may have moved to different buildings or established new corporate HQs elsewhere. In other words, once a list is compiled, there is a “duration date” on useful that data is unless that data is curated and periodically updated to reflect changes.
Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing understands the importance of currency and relevancy in data, especially with a moving target like business contact details. With staff changes, address changes, and many other variables at play, the relevance of business mailing lists and leads is often more volatile than general consumer lists. It is crucial that these details remain up to date. Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing doesn’t stop the job at just compiling lists but has an ongoing mandate of curation, verification, and maintenance. This ensures that businesses never waste time or money addressing staff at a company that is no longer there, or sending marketing materials to the wrong address, or to a company that is no longer in business.
Choose Your Approach
Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing is ready to help businesses reach out to others in the B2B sector. While there are comprehensive lists of general consumers, there are also extensive compilations of business mailing lists and leads. The contact details come in a variety of different formats. For people that want to use direct physical mail, mailing addresses are still available. For those that want to use digital marketing techniques, email addresses can be acquired. And for those who want to direct, verbal contact, or even want to use a text message; phone numbers are available both for calls or SMS/text usage.
The business mailing lists and leads are also, of course, categorized into different classes according to needs and demographics. Businesses in a certain region of the United States can be made available, or just small businesses, or medium enterprises, depending on the size. And of course, companies in different sectors are available, so whether the targeted companies are medical, construction related, hospitality, food and beverage, financial, or some other sector, the business mailing lists, and leads will only be relevant to the focus of interest. And that means a much higher chance of engagement, response, and business growth for everyone.
