Why we are so much cheaper that our competition

Perhaps the most common question we are asked is this:

 ‘Why are you so much cheaper than KwikKerb®”

There is a very simple answer – we choose to be – we don’t want to make HUGE profit while helping people get into their own business.

Since developing Zippykerb in 1982 (many years before KwikKerb® began in business) we have evolved to own a number of highly successful and profitable businesses here in Australia, the USA Asia and NZ

We invented the Zippykerb Continuous Concrete Edging Concept way back in 1982 when we owned a substantial building and building materials manufacturing business in Sydney and Newcastle and as such it has always been our “baby’ that we really do enjoy sharing with others.

We are very happy to be able to help you get into business with very little risk while making a low net profit as Zippykerb is all about success to us and not profitability.

PLEASE! For the sake of yourself and family don’t buy a KwikKerb® business until you really look into what you are paying relative to what you receive.

Just to show what people are willing to sell a used KwikKerb business for, here are some of the second hand machines I have found on the Net... See my notes below these ads'

Here in Australia the average price I can find for the package second hand is from around $40,000 to $65,000

How on earth can this be justified when you can purchase a New Zippykerb package – add a locally purchased ( even second hand) trailer and mixer etc and still be 10’s of $1000’s cheaper than a used KwikKerb® business?

I genuinely feel sorry for people who have purchased a KwikKerb® before finding us.

Zippykerb is genuine value for money

I’ve just found this on EBay:

Business Opportunity  --   Edgemaster Continuous Concrete Edging Machine,
6 profiles, Cement Mixer, Ground Preparation Machine, Wheel Barrels plus a Variety of cement processing tools and ALL Manual

hi bidders i am selling my kerbing setup it is a kwik kerb setup which i have used for the past year and a half its is a very good money making business for full time or part time

my setup is a kwik kerb setup but i have created my own business name which is registered in Queensland it is called graingers kerbing kings i did this to save myself some money on start up as i brought the setup second hand and it costs an extra $28,000 to do a 7 day course and call yourself kwik kerb which is a waste of money in my opinion

kwik kerb setup 4 years old all in good condition  it has all moulds and tools  cement mixer  2 wheels barrows  4 shovels 2 rakes  turf cutter  kerbing machine  various buckets and watering can  drill with mixer attachment   all metal stamps for paving looks  2 rubber stamps one for wood grain effect and one for slate effect 1000 business cards  and may other tools  inspections welcome

 

While the figures below are only an educated guestimate work it out for yourself as to what things are roughly worth to manufacture or purchase.

A machine with moulds & hand tools Say $5000
An enclosed sign written trailer Say $4000
A Trench Digger Say $2000
Training Costs $1000
Signs - brochures etc $1000
Tools - shovels wheel barrows bits & pieces $1500
Rubber stamps $500
Other bits Manuals etc $500
Total $15,500

Stuffed if I can see where the HUGE difference is in value between the new asking price and this rough guestimate. We are manufacturers and it’s fairly accurate as to what we would think it would cost us to produce.

However; It’s only our rough opinion… work it out for yourself.

Hope this is helpful – purchasing any business needs careful consideration; there is not a lot of risk with ZippyKerb with our low entry price compared to our competition.

Price is only ONE of the reasons why we are better:

  • Our machines are powder coated and made in Australia by hand by 3rd generation engineers.
  • We believe our quality of manufacture is superior to our competition… we have NEVER had a machine returned for repair or NEVER had to supply a single spare part in over 25 years!
  • Our ‘stamping’ system is far easier and faster with better results.
  • Our trench digger is far easier to use and far faster
  • We give you a FREE website Guaranteed on page 1 Google with your contact details etc. ( one of our businesses is a leading website building company)
  • Our training manuals are superb in all aspects of the business – we have been doing it since 1982!
  • Our customer service person Lorna ( who has her own Zippykerb Business) is the best operator we have ever had and is a pleasure to do business with – gives superb customer service / follow up and knows everything there is to know about doing the work

Look forward to conversation


All the best
