Selling Nitrogen In Tires - Is It All A Lot Of Hot Air

Actually... no. But it will require a little explanation and some basic chemistry discussion so here goes -

The earths atmosphere is composed primarily of Nitrogen (78%), the remaining balance is a mixture of Oxygen (21%) and a small percentage of Ozone, Argon and Carbon gases. Isnt it ironic that the very gas (oxygen) that sustains life also causes organic materials to decompose and metals to rust?

Remove The Oxygen And Stop The Rot

To stop this decomposition you simply need to remove the oxygen from the air. (Incidentally, removing oxygen also means that you remove water because water is two parts Hydrogen gas, and one part Oxygen gas.)

Removing Oxygen from products is not new, we do it all the time with our food and drink. In fact, if we did not remove the oxygen our food would not likely last long enough to make it into the hands of the consumers or it would taste stale and unappealing.

Nitrogen In Tires

Here are a few other benefits of using Nitrogen in tires:

[1] Nitrogen is denser than Oxygen: This means the larger molecules escape less easily from tires resulting in a more gradual loss of pressure over time. According to the Michelin Tire Manual, a tire that is inflated with Nitrogen loses its pressure 3 times slower than if it were inflated with air.

[2] Nitrogen is moisture free: Pure Nitrogen inflated tires experience less steel belt and rubber degradation. Nitrogen use also reduces valve and wheel corrosion.

[3] Nitrogen provides longer tire life: Nitrogen inflated tire run cooler and require less maintenance according to the Goodyear application bulletin.

[4] Nitrogen is non-flammable: Nitrogen technology has been used in aircraft, military and race car technology for over thirty years.

Does Joe Consumer Get It?

But can we expect Joe Consumer to start paying for this new air anytime soon? As always, the answer is it depends. If enough businesses and corporations get behind the idea and promote it steadily, uniformly and explain the numerous safety and cost savings, then eventually the message should make it through.

However, you do need to be realistic its still considered by Joe Consumer to be new and anything new is usually avoided until it becomes familiar its called the product adoption process.

Its Still Weird Science

The other point to consider here is selling Nitrogen is still science and most people are not that comfortable with the whole science thing. And if you recall I mentioned that regular everyday air is 78% nitrogen anyway so what would they be paying for?

Regular air is approximately 80% nitrogen anyway, are we to believe that an extra 20% makes all the difference Ironically we now know that the answer is yes.

A Moral Dilemma

You and I both know that if using Nitrogen means your clients tires last longer they will save money by not having to purchase as many tires. So Nitrogen use could mean less tire sales And thats the moral dilemma for you. Do you want to make a few dollars on tire inflation services that might ultimately reduce your tire sales or do you want to keep on doing business the way it is now?

Make Mine A Light Air

One things for sure, with regular air and diet air (or is that Air2 with half the carbs) Nitrogen as a tire inflation option will slowly seep into the main stream (and yes the seep pun was intentional).

Now take a deep breath you just inhaled 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen and a few other lesser gases. Could you tell? Did it taste or smell different? Thats part of the challenge isnt it. If regular customers are wary about the things they cannot see, what makes you think selling new air is going to be any easier.

More Creative Birthday Party Ideas

Storybook Birthday Party

This is a fun party theme for any age child and is a perfect setting for a gift like the KidKraft dollhouse bookcase or Avalon bookcase. Send out invitations that look like books and encourage guests to give books as their gift. Also asks your guests to dress up as their favorite storybook character.

Provide plenty of comfortable seating for the party and decorate with a variety of storybook decorations, concentrating on your childs favorites. Begin the party by guessing each guests character and voting on the best costume. Activities may include a craft project, like making a bookmark or designing a book cover, a special story time that may involve a storyteller, and book games, like word puzzles or building towers of books.

Refreshments for your book birthday party could be foods from a favorite book or traditional party foods. A cake shaped like a storybook or decorated with favorite characters will fit the theme perfectly. Give your guests small book totes or decorative bags with an inexpensive book, bookmarks, an interesting pen or pencil, books of candy, stickers, or other inexpensive storybook favors.

Lets Get Cooking Birthday Party

This is an ideal birthday party theme for preschoolers and young elementary age children. A cooking party may be more appropriate for little girls, but can be adapted for boys or a mix of children. Recipe card style invitations are a creative way to announce the details of your party. Remember to tell parents that the children will be cooking and that they may get messy. You will also need to enlist the help of another adult to monitor the oven.

Before the birthday party begins, prepare a few batches of cookie dough, as well as some pizza dough. As guests arrive, get their hands washed and give them a small bowl of cookie dough and a variety of items to mix in to it, like marshmallows, chocolate and peanut butter chips, and nuts (check with parents about food allergies before the party). Then let the child drop the dough onto a small baking sheet and put them in the oven.

Once everyone has arrived, let the guests roll out their pizza dough, spread the sauce, and create a personal pizza with their favorite toppings. While the pizzas are cooking, let everyone help mix cupcake batter and pour into muffin tins. After eating pizza, if the cupcakes are cooled, let each guest frost their cupcake and top with sprinkles, adding a candle to the birthday cupcake.

Games to play at your cooking birthday party could include a shopping race to fill a bag with food items, a name the spice sniffing game, or a relay race to fill a bowl using a teaspoon. Send your birthday party guests home with an inexpensive childs cooking apron, their own set of measuring spoons, a cookie cutter, a recipe card, and the cookies decorated during the party.
