It has been established that one of the petroleum products that is marketed by the National Petroleum Sierra Leone Limited (NP-SL Ltd), which is Castrol GTX, is more than just oil as it is considered to be liquid engineering.
What is really indisputable is the fact that as opposed to other cheaper and inferior engine oil, Castrol GTX is very effective on how it works in engines as well as less costly.
Less costly in the sense that it can last longer compared to other lubricants of inferior quality meaning that when consideration is taken of the amount of money spent on changing engine oil of inferior quality in comparison to Castrol GTX, then it discerns that indeed it is one that is cheaper because unconsciously much money is spent on procuring inferior engine oil of various variety than what is spent on Castrol GTX within the period of purchase under review.
Besides lasting longer, Castrol GTX lubricant enhances the good performance and efficiency of motor engines, minimizes hazardous gaseous emission and helps to properly clean motor engines or machines that may have been clogged by particles.
As a company which is very passionate of offering its esteemed customers with high quality petroleum products, NP (SL) Limited thought it fit to make it possible for its customers to identify themselves with this effective lubricant engine oil through bringing to them the Castrol GTX Loyalty Lucky Dip Promotion.
It is a promotion that started on the 15th February 2021 and will last up to the 14th March 2021. In other words it will last for four weeks as part of the company’s annual activities which is geared towards giving back to its esteemed customers in order for the latter to identify with the brand.
For now every time a customer buys 5 Liter of Castrol GTX from any NP Dealer Stations, he or she automatically becomes eligible to be part of the promo and stands to win an attractive prize.
When the customer buys 5L Castrol GTX (20w50 or GTX Diesel) he or she will have the chance to have one dip and for GTX Ultraclean he or she has 3 dips.
There are two things to be discovered on the slip after any dip which are WINNER or Sorry! Buy More GTX.
The winner leaves his or her name and telephone number with the Station Manager of the Filling Station where the Castrol lubricant was bought and he or she is later contacted by the Sales Supervisor.
As far as the promotion is tailored no customer goes empty handed as even losers will have some form of compensation at the end of the day.
Already there are flyers that provide information about the promotion and certain sales points have been activated in order to give the Promo wider coverage.
It must be noted that the Ultraclean 10w40 Castrol Oil is a multi-grade oil that can be used in hotter countries. GTX 20w50, though good for petrol engines, is also a multi-purpose oil.
It has been established that the Castrol oil in the white rubber is the one that is most often used as it maintains temperature and can be used on petrol engines.
This medium learnt that, NP-SL Ltd, from time to time conducts trainings for automobile mechanics and the company’s pump attendants in order for them to know the various specifications which could help them to guide customers on the actual type of Castrol GTX that will suit them.
Again, from what this medium has so far observed, since the promotion started it has been gaining momentum as many customers are finding it very entertaining in participating in it and every day the number of participants keeps increasing.
