SANFORD, Fla., Aug. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The founders of Clix Wipers have been in the wiper blade business for over 25 years. Over the years, not much has changed. All new style wiper blades just increased confusion and increased prices with giving little additional value to drivers. They knew that they had to create a better wiper blade.
The journey began quite simply by reading thousands of online reviews from real customers of the largest internationally known branded wiper blades. Not to their surprise, ALL of these wiper blades were (and still are) very poorly reviewed. How poorly? In lots of cases, over 40% of the reviews from real drivers were either 1 STAR or 2 STARS! Yes, that means over 4-in-10 drivers were incredibly dissatisfied. Yuck!! That is an embarrassment and not something you hear on their national TV campaigns.
To conquer this issue, the first step was to DRASTICALLY improve installing and replacing wiper blades. This sounds very easy, yet simplifying a century old technology and breaking a few paradigms can be difficult. But the Clix Wipers team succeeded even beyond their initial expectations.
Another major goal is to completely take away the headaches of buying and replacing wiper blades. What style wiper blade do I need? What kind of wiper arm do I have? How do I get the old ones off? How the heck do I..... and the story goes on. No more! Drivers should simply know their vehicle and get what they need. It's not that difficult. But the way the industry is currently organized, it is quite difficult. By simply adding a vehicle's year, make, and model, customers receive what is needed...nothing else! And now they can replace their own wiper blades every time in under 10 seconds!
Clix Wipers kept asking themselves, what is the quickest and best way to replace worn wiper blades? However, the mind set began to change more broadly to, "How do we take bad wiper blades off the road? Period!"
Currently, when drivers first start to realize that they need new wiper blades, they probably either wait until they need an oil change or mechanic visit, plan a trip to an auto parts store (on their busy schedule), plan a vehicle swap with a family member that can take their car and get their wipers taken care of...or they just wait so long that you can no longer see out of their windshield! Bottom line, it's an interruption to their life, at best. At worst, the driver and their family are driving in dangerous conditions with poor wiper blades. That shouldn't be! But they never had any other options...until now!
For Clix Wipers to fix this, they understood that drivers needed to have access to new wiper blades wherever they are and at any time. With the Clix Spare Pair, drivers keep an emergency pair of wipers in your trunk or the back of their vehicle. Most drivers keep a spare tire. Some keep first-aid kits. People keep lots of things in our car "just-in-case." Why wouldn't they have wiper blades "just-in-case"? Because, before today, wiper blades were way too difficult to put on by the everyday driver.
The optimal way to change the relationship with wiper blades would be to always have a spare pair in every vehicle. By keeping a spare pair in the vehicle, the driver will have a fresh pair of windshield wipers whenever that time comes to make the change. With a subscription plan, drivers simply re-load the trunk or back of their vehicle with a new spare pair. And now they NEVER have to drive with poor wiper blades again.
Clix Wipers is solving a problem that hundreds of millions of people deal with. In a world with such great progress in so many areas, it's about time that simple issues, such as poor windshield wiper blades, are solved!
