Blog 3

Well it's been a minute or two but I'm back. Been very busy out there visiting customers and potential customers. We now have more customers now than we have ever had. My mom(and boss) has been sending out mailers and getting new customers as well. The economy seems to be getting better, but at a much slower rate than I expected. On the brighter side of things we just had our best June ever. So overall I like where we are and I like where Arizona Tubes & Hoses is going. If there is anything we can help you with or you just want to chat come on by. If you mention this blog we'll give you an extra 10% off.

I'm now married three months. Married life is awesome. We went on the Mexican Riviera cruise aboard the Royal Caribbean. We had a blast and will never forget the great service. We are settled and working very hard for the our Lord Jesus Chris. We have started a non-profit that will focus on bringing communities closer together and helping those who are in need. The organization is called AZ Common Ground. Look for us soon to be in your nieghborhood. That will be all for today. Have a great day and visit us on line at aztubesandhoses.com.

Blog 2: The Recession

The recession and Arizona Tubes & Hoses has been fairly hard. Not as hard as some of some 30 of our customers but still hard none the less. We've had to borrow and come up with new ideas for the structure of our business. Although those new ideas are not really new just resurrected ones. Before we did not pick up and deliver for other businesses. Now we do at no extra charge. We have also lowered our prices through this recession.

Another thing that has happened as is with most businesses is that our competition has increased. More people are opening up hose repair shops. Of course they are not as extensive as Arizona Tubes & Hoses. Nor are they as experienced. They still cut into the bottom line. How we deal with that is we simply offer a better service with a guaranty.

So where we are right now is not a bad spot. Still a little scary because business is so sporadic from day to day. Business is picking up slightly most days. I see that with most automotive businesses right now. People are simply waiting until they absolutely have to before fixing their vehicle. Also our big customers are not producing as much inventory as they were.

Over all it's been a great learning experience for me. I've never seen anything like this before. You really have to look for the good deals all around. Know what your buying and know your field of expertise. Keep it up America. We'll get through this and be stronger for it.

Here's a list of some of our services:

Power Steering Hoses
Air Conditioning Hoses
Brake Hoses
Fuel/Oil Hoses
Hydraulic Hoses
Tube Bending

First Blog

Hello! My name is Keith krenklis. I am the marketing director for Arizona Tubes & Hoses. Oh, when I say marketing director I mean I take out the trash clean the toilets you name it. We are family owned and operated. It's just me and my parents. I have a lot of hobbies like racing cars and hiking. I'm getting married in 2 1/2 months to a wonderful woman named Eva. We met in aisle one at Fresh & Easy where she works. We met in June of '09. We are very happy! More on our life later.

At Arizona Tubes & Hoses we like to say that if we can't make it you don't needed it. Obviously that's not entirely true. It's close when you're dealing with high pressure fluid lines and tube bending. We also pick up and deliver for your convenience at no extra charge. Our prices are very reasonable and we guarantee all our work. Check out our website.
