Summerize Your Auto Repair Shop’s Website

May 9th, 2016

You had to winterize your website, just like you had to winterize your customer’s vehicles. Now it is time to start updating your website to help get your customers’ vehicle ready for the summer. Summer is coming and that means hot weather is on the way. How can you help your customers prepare for the heat?

You can make your customers aware that they need to prepare for the heat by updating your website with relevant information such as summer car care tips. They will be looking for answers to questions regarding the cooling system, fluids, brakes, tires, and more. It would be great to have testimonials on those services and to make sure that all of those summer auto maintenance services are listed on your website.

You can also bring in more business during the summer by running seasonal promotions. This is possible through the coupon section on your website, and your customers are able to print them out. Some good examples of specials include: FREE Cooling System Check or Summer Tune-up.

It is quick and easy to summerize your website because Repair Shop Websites does all the work for you. You can get your shop ready for summer, while we get your website ready. Please contact us at 866-665-1605 to summerize your website today!

Show Your Customers You Care – It’s National Car Care Month!

April 6th, 2016

As an automotive repair shop, you work on vehicles all of the time, but do you actually have a strong relationship with your customers? It’s National Car Care Month, so this is one of the best times to show your appreciation for their business. What can you do to show your customers that you care?

There several ways to demonstrate to your customers that you care, but one of the quickest ways to do this is by updating your website to make it more professional, engaging, and user-friendly.

Here are some updates that can be made to your website to show your customers that you care:

  • Your customers are busy and always on-the-go, so you need to make sure that your website is easy to use. You can do this by providing your customers with all of the information that they’re looking for when they visit your site. Such as, making sure all of your information is accurate, all of the appropriate services are listed, and that you list all of your certifications.
  • Reaching out to your customers shows that your shop is still in business and ready to assist them. You can express this by adding customer testimonials, coupons and promotions, and by staying active on social media.
  • Showing your customers that you are part of the local community can help you form a stronger relationship, and bring repeat business. You can do this by dedicating a page on your website to charity work and other local organizations that you support.

If you need help with any of the updates from above, please contact Repair Shop Websites at 866-666-1605 today!

Celebrate Earth Day By “Going Green”

April 6th, 2016

When was the last time you celebrated Earth Day? Is your automotive repair shop involved in any activities that support a “greener” world? Consumers are starting to care even more about the environment. Earth Day is on April 22nd this year and we recommend that you try to “green up” your shop in 2016. How can you become more environmentally friendly?

Your automotive repair shop can “go green” by learning about your local environmental laws and then adopting some of those for your business, and making them routine business practices. Here are some examples of ways that your shop can “go green”:

  • Clean up your spills right away and use dry clean-up practices
  • Put recycling containers in your shop
  • Don’t use spray cans
  • Avoid using paper and instead use online records
  • Only purchase lights with low energy use

If your shop chooses to “go green,” make sure you call us at 866-665-1605 and we can work with you to update your website to show that your shop is environmentally friendly.
