Why Should Car Dealers Advertise Their Opening Hours Early This Christmas?
As Christmas fast approaches, car dealers and garages are beginning to confirm which days and hours they’ll be open across the festive period, with early communication being key to ensuring profits can be maximised before the new year.
Advertising December opening hours on your website as soon as possible will give car buyers and loyal customers plenty of time to plan their visit, whether they are looking for their next car on the forecourt or considering booking their vehicle into the workshop for routine maintenance.
When browsing your stock online over the Christmas period, car buyers are likely to get in touch sooner rather than later to arrange a test drive if they know when you’ll be open, giving you a chance to sell another car in 2025 and bring more money into the business.
Service customers will also want the reassurance of knowing your opening hours so they know when they can contact the workshop and rely on your mechanics in case any emergency repairs are needed over the holidays.
Sharing your festive schedule online well in advance can also help reduce the number of repetitive phone calls later in the month, and with customers and prospects already well informed, your staff can spend less time fielding calls asking the same questions regarding opening hours.
The time saved from taking these phone calls could be used much more productively both in the showroom and in your service centre, making it essential for automotive businesses to upload their seasonal hours to their website, as it is a simple step that will lead to happier customers, and stronger performance during the festive season.
Car dealers and garages with a website powered by Dragon2000 have the tools to easily advertise their own festive hours online, which means customers will be made aware of your schedule as soon as your website loads in front of them.
We even have a colourful variety of festive pop-ups to choose from, so you can use the theme that best suits your dealership or garage.
If you have a car dealer website provided by Dragon2000, then you already have instant access to the custom pop-up feature in our web-based Portal, allowing you to quickly upload your seasonal hours for the convenience of your customers.
Our popular car dealer websites have been designed to work alongside the DragonDMS dealer management system, which is why so many car dealers and garages have made the switch to a website powered by Dragon2000.
