Interview with Paul Adcock, Author of Jungle King Secrets – A Libido-Liberating Lifestyle

Tags:

Paul Adcock is an author, aphrodisiac aficionado, sexual super-food supplement scholar, and researcher of how sexual energy can be used for rejuvenation rather than just procreation and/or recreation. He is currently conducting research fulltime for his next book “Sex-Drug: Erotic Energy Ecstasy Elixirs and the Secrets of Passion.”Tyler: Welcome, Paul. I’m certainly curious about your research into sex. To begin, what made you title your book “Jungle King Secrets”?Paul: Thank you. You can take the name, “Jungle King Secrets” many ways. To achieve libido liberation, one has to have self-mastery over one’s animal instincts. The “king” part of the title represents that. The “jungle” aspect came from the fact that animals in the pristine wild always have the vitality needed to victoriously validate their virility. The libido-lowering lifestyle factors implicated in impotence and a lackluster and love life always come from the artificial aspects of industrialized civilization. Therefore, libido liberation is the result of living like a “Jungle King” in the wild, free from the trappings of modern civilization the libido-busting lifestyles that cause domestication.Tyler: Will you tell us how the book is laid out and what readers can expect to find there?Paul: The reader can expect to enjoy an explanation of every lifestyle factor that effects libido, no holds barred. My extensive research took me beyond the politically correct dogma on sexual, medical, nutritional, and lifestyle information. Scientists are making quantum leaps and bounds in scientific discoveries everyday. Why not integrate some of these implications in order to improve the quality our love lives? That’s what I decided to do. I found out that that there are many synthetic substances nowadays in our food, water, medicine, personal care products and environment that can lower one’s libido, reduce the maximum size of one’s sex organ, and destroy the orgasmic capacity of lovers. It’s really quite a tragedy.Tyler: Are you saying that people are not experiencing the full sexual pleasure possible?Paul: I feel ecstasy can be elevated endlessly. However, through modern sexual miseducation and misunderstanding, sex can be an endlessly exhausting, enslaving endeavor that leads to emptiness as well. Therefore, it is important to have empowering sex education. I’m not talking about the kind of state-sanctioned sexual education we were taught in school. I’m talking about the kind of sexual education that allows you and your lover to live an ecstatic existence, full of healthy happiness, fully awake and aware of the marvel and magic of life. I’m talking about the kind of sexual education that allows you and your lover to enjoy an erotic embrace as gliding genital gyrations that generate climatic currents of ecstatic energy that cascade into your consciousness, bestowing creativity, clarity and endlessly enhancing your earthly existence. Really good sex can not only provide soul-nourishing pleasure-sustenance, it can profoundly change our perception of life like the most potent psychedelic drug.Tyler: Paul, will you provide us some examples of what is in our food and water and how it is affecting or reducing our ability to have full sexual pleasure?Paul: Let’s take the pesticides, those “elixirs of death”, as an example. Every year, 4.5 billion pounds of poisonous biological warfare agents called pesticides are sprayed on our food to keep pests away. Many pesticides interfere with the metabolism of a neurotransmitter that is involved in sexual sensation and signaling called acetylcholine. Many of these pesticides also mimic the female hormone estrogen. What are the consequences of estrogen mediated hormone imbalances (the evils of excess estrogen) in men? Shrunken penis, atrophied testicles, feminization, male breast growth (gynecomastia), weight gain, decreased sperm count, prostate problems, weaker erections, etc. Now, do the pesticide residues found in our food and water supplies cause these things? I can’t say for certain. What I can say is that environmental researchers have found alligators in pesticide-contaminated lakes in Florida that have penises so small and testosterone levels so low they cannot function sexually.Another example: independent laboratory tests found toxic chemicals called phthalates in more than 70% of health and beauty products tested, including popular brands of shampoo, deodorant, hair mousse, face lotion and every single fragrance (used in cologne) tested. Phthalates lower the sex hormone testosterone, which can be a real problem for libido and health.In my book, I detail the many other ways our chemical crazy civilization is causing male chemical castration and the simple solutions that people can employ to protect their potency.Tyler: You mentioned these elements in our food and water can even reduce our sexual organs. In contrast, so many of us are bombarded with spam email to enhance our sexual organs. Should we buy into any of these grand claims, and if not, what instead should we do to reverse the problems that are resulting from the elements in our food and water and environment?Paul: The best way to avoid shrinkage of the sex organs is to avoid the hormone killers, the chemicals that mimic estrogen or interrupt the metabolism of testosterone, because a low testosterone results in penile shrinkage.I have found that most of the penis enlargement pills on the market are poorly formulated, contain low quality ingredients, and are generally ineffective. One study commissioned by the Wall Street Journal found significant levels of E. coli, yeast, mold, lead, and pesticide residues in some of the random penis enlargement pills they tested. My conclusion is, as a rule of thumb, a company that is marketing their products for penis enlargement is not going to be reputable enough to have a safe and effective product. The best advice I can give is to find out what kind of supplements work and then buy them from reputable companies that sell products of known quality. For example, if you want an herbal product that elevates testosterone, find a company that has lab tests that prove that their formulation does this. Then look into their quality and purity standards. Of course, these reputable companies will not likely be marketing their products as herbal aphrodisiacs or botanical erection power boosters, but you can use them as such if you know how.Tyler: Can you give us an example of a healthy product people can take to enhance sexual pleasure?Paul: One erotic essential is chocolate, better yet raw cacao (raw chocolate). Cacao naturally contains many chemicals that improve genital blood flow, and improved swelling of the sex organs generally spells better sex. Cacao also contains many psychoactive chemicals that can increase sexual desire and sensation. But you have to obtain real dark chocolate to get the benefits, not that watered-down wimpy stuff cut with loads of additives and sugar. I like chocolate from a company called Dagoba. They sell bars that contain 70% cacao and up. It’s even better if you can find raw (unheated, untreated) cacao nibs. These bad boys don’t taste that good but they retain much more of the beneficial properties of the bean. If you obtain them raw, you just have to learn a little bit of aphrodisiac alchemy. You can blend them up in a blender, add the sweetener of your choice and maybe even some additional sexual super-foods and bam, you got an authentic erotic elixir. I include several recipe examples in my book.Tyler: You referred above to your book discussing lifestyle. Will you expand on what you mean by lifestyle? Does your book include sexual techniques? Would you describe it as a manual?Paul: The book extols the virtues of a libido-liberating lifestyle paradigm, which is based on a philosophical principle best described as harmonizing and harnessing the primal power of nature. All the libido-busting lifestyles and substances I detail in my book stem from a synthetic belief system, which I jokingly call “Better living through chemistry.”This paradigm has failed us. Just look at all the obesity, degenerative disease, and unhappiness alone. These things are normal, but not natural. What I am trying to turn the reader on to is world-class wellness, better living through better living. Improved virility naturally emerges from improved overall vitality.To answer your other question, the book includes some commentary on sexual positions, and styles of lovemaking, with the emphasis on methods that allow a man to maintain an erection so that lovers can linger longer in the magic of the moment.Tyler: Paul, you starting out by saying, “libido liberation is the result of living like a “Jungle King” in the wild, free from the trappings of modern civilization the libido-busting lifestyles that cause domestication.” How do you suggest a person bring about a change in lifestyle to live like a “Jungle King”?Paul: The archetype of a king is a royal and rich ruler. If one is in touch with their sacred spiritual source, they will respect themselves (and all life) as royal. If one has sovereign selfhood, they will make their own rules, be the master of their destiny and therefore be their own ruler. If people ecstatically enjoy their experiences on earth and love the lives they live, they are rich.A certain style of sex can help crown one with this kingly consciousness. Why? Our nervous system is the temple of consciousness. Our endocrine system creates the chemistry of our consciousness. Our hormone structure and nervous functions fluctuate depending on our neuroendocrine function. Therefore, a style of sex that improves our neuroendocrine function can help create crystal clear consciousness of a royal rich self-ruler. The style of sex I am referring to here I termed making love at the “rhythm of rejuvenation.” It is detailed in my book.Tyler: What about the Jungle Queen? Are women going to find help through your book as well as men?Paul: About 95% of all the information contained within the book is applicable to women. Women are wired differently than men in many ways. However, they have spongy erectile tissue that engorges with blood during sexual arousal just like men do, only it is mostly on the inside of their body. The chemicals that lower libido in diverse ways and sexual super-food supplements that enhance sexual ecstasy are generally the same for men and women, give or take. Women can certainly benefit from the rejuvenating aspects of sex (by making love at the “rhythm of rejuvenation”) as much as men can.Tyler: You talk a lot about sexual ignorance in our culture. Will you explain further what you mean by sexual ignorance?Paul: Everyone wants sensational sexual satisfaction, but many go about it backwards. Some seek imprudently to increase the intensity of the sexual excitement, often in ways that desensitize their nervous system and diminish the brain’s capacity to experience heightened pleasure in the process. A whole industry has sprouted up around novel sexual stimulation that becomes necessary to become aroused when people engage in styles of sex that cause them to become increasingly dull and desensitized. Sex toys, pornography, phone sex, fetish supplies, casual sex partner connecting services, etc., all feed this need. I’m not morally judging these activities. However, I feel endless ecstasy elevation and sustained sexual satisfaction lie in sensitizing one’s self to sensational soulful sex and cultivating it so it becomes more and more sublime, which is completely in the opposite direction.Tyler: Paul, you said you are not a fan of pornography or casual sex partner services? Are you advocating monogamy? Is greater sexual satisfaction achieved by having one partner so you can train each other, or is variety the spice of life when it comes to sex?Paul: Variety is the spice of life when it comes to sex. However, one does not need to have multiple partners to enjoy the vast variety of exquisite sexual states of ecstasy. To do this, lovers need to cultivate their sexual sensitivity so that sex becomes more and more sublime. One way to enhance erotic ecstasy is through sexual super-food supplements, which tweak hormone and neurotransmitter levers. Another way is through making love at the ” rhythm of rejuvenation” (explained in my book). Another way to enhance one’s love life is through energizing exercises. Multiple partners, porn, etc. tends to move one in the direction of dullness and desensitization. This is a vicious downward cycle because desensitization causes people to seek the neurochemical (brain chemical) buzz / thrill of novel partners or novel porn even more.When constant conventional sex with one’s cherished, committed companion becomes boring, don’t have conventional sex. Make love at the “rhythm of rejuvenation,” which will balance out brain chemistry and provide a deeper fulfillment and satisfaction so that so called “novel sex” acts no longer have the same appeal.Tyler: Our culture seems obsessed with sex, and yet so much about sex appears to be taboo. What kind of reaction have people had to your work and your book?Paul: Sexual repression and sexual obsession are two sides of the same coin. The reason there is so much sexual obsession is because there is so much sexual repression and vice-versa. The minute you try to condemn (repress) something, it suddenly becomes irresistible, hence the sexual obsession. Morality is obviously a good thing, but it needs to be elevated. The traditional religious moral rules, regulations and restrictions on sex multiply its already attractive allure a million-fold. It is the law of reverse psychology working here.To answer your second question, so far the feedback for my book has been positive.Tyler: I understand you are continuing your research, to help people enjoy the drug of sex without the soul-corruption of other drugs. Is sex potentially soul-corrupting? We hear a lot these days about sexual addiction. Where is the fine line between intense enjoyment of sex and becoming sexually addicted?Paul: Compare sex to the strongest drug or medicine. Can a strong medicine or drug be used in ways that are beneficial? Can a medicine or drug be used in a way that is destructive? No external authority can prescribe the correct dosage of the psychoactive drug we call sex; it is up to the individual to investigate the issue independently. However, I can say that soul-corruption starts when one begins to become a slave to a substance or activity. It’s all about balance. When one “self medicates” with sex in excess, seeking the orgasmic highs, he exhausts his sexual energy and becomes empty (strung out), which creates a cycle of craving to get high (often through sex) again. This cycle is highly addictive and can cause one to become enslaved. On the other hand, when one is conservative with their sexual energy, they can cultivate pleasure plateaus and peaks that makes the experience of sexual ecstasy more and more exquisite, in addition to energetically enhancing every other aspect of one’s earthly experience exponentially. The neurochemistry of this is all explained in the book.Tyler: Paul, “Jungle King Secrets” also talks a great deal about Taoism. Will you tell us about how Taoism can be used in relation to sex?Paul: Our attitudes and beliefs about sex tend to be shaped from religious moral regulation and/or mass media titillation. However, the ancient Taoist mind was not influenced by modern mass media, or the rules and restrictions of organized religion. They observed the organic pull and power of orgasmic sex has on the psyche from a nonjudgmental and scientifically perspective. Their primary pastime was the quest for immortality. Therefore, they tried to harness the power of sexual energy for things like physical rejuvenation and psycho-spiritual illumination rather than just procreation and recreation. From this perception, they devised practical methods of harnessing sexual energy to achieve these goals. I include some of the Taoist sexual wisdom that can be validated by modern science in my book.Tyler: Paul, tell us about your company, Unity Foods. What is the relation between your interest in food and your interest in sex?Paul: In terms of food and sex, nutrient supplementation and dietary modulation for better sex is a big part of “Jungle King Secrets.” Food provides the essential elements of the earth that the body needs to bio-synthesize bio-chemicals that cause the sex organs to swell, making sex possible. Supplementing the diet with sexual super-foods (real aphrodisiacs) that are rich in specific raw materials is a science that can spice up a couples love life infinitely. There are many sexual supplements that enhance the genital blood flow, tweak hormone and neurotransmitter balance in ways that are favorable to male ejaculation control, sexual stamina, etc. Certain sexual nutrients are also helpful in increasing sexual desire and drive, enhancing sexual sensation, and increasing female sexual engorgement and lubrication as well. Some herbal aphrodisiacs / super-foods can even aid in the alteration of our awareness during sexual arousal so that it is easier to get out of our minds and lost in loving sensation.Tyler: I won’t ask what these foods and supplements are, but rather, are they readily available in the supermarket or a mall? How difficult is it to find these products?Paul: Most supplements are relatively easy to obtain, especially with the advent of the Internet. It is, however, tricky to source quality sexual super-food supplements. I provide a lot of tips on sourcing supplements in the book because the difference between a quality super-food or supplement and a synthetic supplement or degraded natural source supplement with fillers, binders, etc. is like night and day. I have tried many products that I have not been happy with, and only a few rare jewels that I find to have noticeable results.Tyler: Paul, would you say “Jungle King Secrets” is your answer to Viagra?Paul: We all want simple solutions, and popping a pill is a lot simpler than rejuvenating one’s self through lifestyle adjustments. However, the results are not as rewarding as a libido-liberating lifestyle. The little pill you mentioned is a savage synthetic pseudo-solution with potentially severe side effects such as heart disorders, eye trouble, and infertility. It does not help heal the underlying condition that is causing the potency problem; it merely suppresses the symptoms of erectile dysfunction (impotence).Tyler: Thank you for joining me today, Paul. Before we go, would you tell us about your website and what additional information can be found there?Paul: Thank you. I wish everyone life-long libido and a lively love life that lasts a lifetime. The website is http://www.JungleKing.biz. Check it out often, as I try to post new articles and videos that warn people about chemical castration, and explore valuable information about libido liberation.Tyler: Thank you, Paul, for so much educational information. I wish you much luck with “Jungle King Secrets” and your continued research.Paul: Thank you.Tyler R.

Let Us Help You Spring Clean Your Finances!

Since spring has sprung we are taking every opportunity to open our windows and let the fresh air in. Most of us start cleaning out the garage, clean off the outdoor furniture and pack up our old clothes to donate to charity. Why should spring cleaning end with your home? This is the perfect time to tidy up your personal finances as well. Consider these recommendations to “clean” up your finances.

Contribute to your 401(k). Make sure you contribute enough to your 401(k) to qualify for maximum matching funds. Your employer is willing to give you this free money so don’t leave it on the table.

Open and IRA. If you own your own business or work for a company with no retirement plan, open an IRA. You can get big tax breaks from opening this type of retirement plan. If you don’t know which IRA is right for you, you can search “Types of Retirement Plans” at irs.gov.

Rate check your credit cards. The interest rates on your credit cards can have an impact on your balances and have the potential of adding up over time. If your interest rate is increasing your card balances, it’s time to shop around to find a lower rate. Other items that are options for rate checks are mortgage loans, auto loans and even your checking and savings accounts. For a real feeling of gratification, pay off the balance that costs you the high interest. If you want to zero our your balance by the end of the year, divide the amount owed by 7 and pay that amount every month. Can’t bite off that much every month? Move the balance to another card with an introductory rate and pay it off before the deal runs out. Make sure there are no high transfer fees.

Open a savings account. Follow these three steps when opening your savings account:
1. Set a financial goal and timeline.
2. Decide how much to save each month to help you reach your goal.
3. Setup automatic transfers into your savings plan from your checking account. This way the transfer is done for you and you won’t miss the money.

Review your credit report. Make sure your credit reports are free of mistakes. Remember, you are able to order one free credit report every year from each of the three major credit bureaus. You can get one free of charge from annualcreditreport.com.

Organize or discard old financial documents. Sort through all your bank statements, invoices, bills and other financial records and keep those that are only necessary. Be aware you need to keep tax returns, canceled checks, receipts and any supporting paperwork for your taxes for at least six years. Make sure you don’t just trash your important documents in the trash without shredding them. You don’t want them to be picked up by an identity thief.

Set up automatic bill pay. Spring-cleaning just isn’t about de-cluttering. It’s about making your financial life more efficient. Set up automatic bill pay and link it to your checking account in an effort to eliminate any chance of missing a payment and paying late fees.

Review your budget. Take a close look at your current budget and decide if you need to make any changes.

Pay off as much debt as possible. Spring is a good time to review your outstanding debts and which loans or credit cards you could pay off. If nothing else, develop a stricter payoff plan. Cleaning up your outstanding debt quickly will put you in a much better financial position for the rest of the year.

Record your financial passwords and store all your records in a secure place. Make sure you’re not using the same password for all your financial accounts. Protect yourself against identity theft by protecting your passwords and other financial documents in an online secure vault.

Be a community steward. Try and make a difference in your community. Believe it or not, giving of yourself to others will make you feel a lot wealthier.

It’s Time For Millennials To Get Their Finances In Shape

Most millennials are now in there 20s and 30s, beginning a career climb and also the time when you are making major financial decisions. These financial decisions can include home ownership, investment strategies, and family planning. Certainly, you want to try and avoid some of the financial hazards that have transpired in the lives of previous generations.

Financial literacy is seldom taught in school, so if you didn’t learn it at home growing up, your first time in the “real world” may get you into some financial distress. Read below to learn some of the top financial tips that will help millennials make smart financial decisions.

Take online money management courses

Because most millennials excel at technology, I would suggest signing up for courses in basic economics, accounting and budgeting. These types of courses can be very affordable and very well delivered by the online professor. I feel this is a very efficient way to update yourself on financial topics that may simplify and improve your financial life.

Build up your retirement savings

Did you know that Wells Fargo revealed that almost 50% of millennials weren’t planning for retirement? Make sure you participate in your employer’s 401(k) plan, even if you can only afford to contribute the minimum every month.

Make a list of your whole financial picture

I recommend you make a list of everything that is spent each month. After you have digested this information, ask yourself this question. How am I going to pay for all of this? There are also four essential things everyone should know about their finances: income, expenses, assets and liabilities. Having a firm comprehension of these items will help you make sense of your finances. There are many online tools that can help you connect all your accounts – Mint, Quicken just to name a few. I believe this is your first step in improving your finances.

Research passive income opportunities

Most of us work for money all our lives and never really put it to work for us. It is possible to use your job income for passive income from your investments. For example, the IRS says passive income can come from two sources: rental property or a business in which you do not actively participate. Make no mistake; passive income is not about getting something for nothing. It involves a lot of work and is definitely not a “get rich quick” scheme.

Start a savings account

Open up a share account at your credit union even if you can’t make regular deposits. You can use this account to put extra money aside for your short term and even long-term goals. This can also be used as your emergency fund. Shoot for 3-12 months of expenses, put aside for emergencies.

Pay yourself first

Once you have money in your hand from your paycheck, IRS refund, etc. always pay yourself first. Arrange for automatic transfers from your checking account directly to your share account every payday or on a monthly basis.

Do you know the impact of your credit score?

Everyone, but especially entrepreneurial millennials need to understand that their personal credit can be the defining factor in getting working capital in the future. Getting approved for a loan can be very challenging when your credit score is low. Learn how to read your credit report and check it frequently.

Reduce your debt faster

Pay off small debts first and gradually tackle the larger ones. This will allow you to see results and stay motivated.

Enlist the assistance of a trusted mentor

There is an overabundance of information online regarding financial literacy. However, picking the brain of someone you know and trust is better. Their insights are often tailor-made to your specific needs.

Remove extra costs

It is a proven fact that millennials have expensive habits ($5 lattes every day, eating out on a regular basis, designer fashions, etc.). Keep a close eye on your expenses and trim them where you can.

Raise your children to be financially savvy

At this point you may already have young children or planning to start a family. Teach them that saving money is essential. When they are old enough take them to your credit union and help them open up their own accounts. This will hopefully excite them to continue saving their own money.

I hope you use these financial tips to keep your finances on track while you are young. Remember, you have a very bright financial future ahead of you if you start now and stick with it!

PAT Testing Procedure

Portable Appliance Testing (or PAT Testing) is a legally required method of testing portable appliances. There are many stages that go towards the testing process. It will end with either a pass or fail result.

Portable Appliance Testing needs to look at certain safety elements. Amongst the things that can cause the failure is damage to cables, plugs and wires, overheating and signs of water damage. There should be no bare wires and no sign of internal damage.

The testing needs to be done according to the IEE (Institute of Electrical Engineers) guidelines. Before testing takes place anyone who is not part of the testing team should leave the premises.

The most basic part of the testing process is the visual inspection. Over 90% of problems are said to be found during this part of the process. It consists of the tester looking at the appliance and seeing if there are any obvious issues.

Here the tester will be able to see any poor wiring, cracked casing, bent pins and other damage. These are the most basic areas where appliances fail the PAT test.

The location that a particular appliance is used needs to be inspected. There must be sufficient ventilation (depending one the needs of the equipment), the area cannot be unreasonably damp, and controls to the equipment must be easily accessible.

An Earth Bond Test needs to be carried out during the testing process. Electrical Test Equipment is necessary for this part of the procedure. This is a test between the earth bond and continuity between the plug pin and external components. The voltage and test current is assessed during this process.

Other parts of the test are the insulation test and operational test.

The insulation test is necessary to ensure the insulation resistance is safe. The operational test simply consists of the tester switching the equipment on and testing out certain regular functions that it should perform, and making sure its performance is as expected.

Once testing has been completed the result of the PAT test should be clearly stated. The most common method of this is simply placing a label on the equipment. The label will say whether the appliance has passed or failed, and should also include more specific details of its condition. It will give the date of the test and the date at which another test will be necessary.

Equipment that is faulty or damaged should be removed from service immediately. It can then be determined whether or not the seriousness of the damage is sufficient for the equipment to be out of use.

PAT testing records are required to be kept for the duration of the life of the appliance. This is a legal necessity as it shows that tests have been carried out and the results of them.

Since the nursing positions are temporary, the employer will be expecting a nurse who does not have for being trained or supervised.

The Automotive Industry Marketing Plan

The auto industry is one of the largest industries in the world. It includes dealers, service shops for repair and body work, parts suppliers, insurance companies and even towing companies just to name a few. All areas of the auto industry share a common interest and that is cars. The interest in the auto industry has done nothing but increase over the years and all areas of the industry are learning to implement new marketing techniques in order to gain their customers attention.

Promotional products have been proven to be very effective marketing tools for businesses within the auto industry. Repair tools, key chains, safety tools, road side kits and many other promotional products that boast the company’s name or logo can not only be useful to the consumer but can be very effective in gaining more business for the company.

Tow companies often use roadside kits as a promotional part of their marketing campaign and it works. Think about the times of accidents, emergencies or break downs and that feeling of desperation while wondering who you should call. When you reach for the bag in your trunk that supplies your road side safety and emergency supplies and the logo of a towing company is clearly printed with a number for assistance, who else would you call? Many companies offer elaborate kits while others offer simple ones, the effectiveness of the advertising in those situations are not easily compared so there is no real proof that creating a kit complete with jumper cables and hazard signals works any better than one with road flares and a few simple tools.

Insurance companies and parts suppliers can also benefit from this promotional method of advertising. Any event that requires assistance will cause the driver to look for items they already possess in their vehicle to rectify the situation at hand and with those items and the contact information that is the number that will 9 times out of 10 be used.

Branding is another great way to use promotional advertising within the auto industry. When people take great lengths to accessorize or customize their vehicles they often want to show off the brands that they used. By incorporating engraved key chains, branded licensed plates and other accessories that sport the company brand or logo will be a great way to grab the attention of admirers. When consumers see the vehicle looking great and your company brand is located on it you will get the majority of the credit and they of course will come to you for all of their customization needs.

Parts suppliers and service garages often use tools as part of their promotional advertising campaign. This is due to the fact that when a vehicle breaks down or is in need of service or maintenance those tools that are on standby with the company logo on it will often be the reminder for the consumer to contact that company for their parts or service needs. You can use anything from flashlights, tire gauges to multi set tool kits to offer the advertising that you need to get that customer in your door.
