Michelin North America announced application and billing enhancements to its Michelin Advantage program, introduced in 2007 to help support the needs of small fleets and owner-operators.
The Advantage program provides competitive, consistent nationwide pricing on new Michelin heavy-truck dual and X One tires for trucking fleets operating under 100 power units, according to the company. It's also available for fleets using bus and RV tires; car and light-truck tires; earthmover, construction, and Tweel tires; Michelin Retread Technologies retreads; Michelin services; and BFGoodrich heavy- and light-truck tires.
The enhancements include a simplified application process, available in the U.S. and Canada, that can be accessed by desktop computer or mobile device and offers same-day benefits. The billing process also has been improved, allowing dealers to take control of the process, including registering the credit card for the fleet. The online application is also now available for customers in Canada, in English or French.
"We listened to our dealer network and fleet participants to improve the program with the goal to be more user-friendly for our 20,000 participants," said Coy Jones, senior operational marketing manager, B2B – Regional and Small Fleet, Michelin North America. "This improves the purchasing process, and new members do not have to wait to purchase tires. This enhancement continues Michelin’s customer-centric journey."
