Wow Customers this Holiday Season with the gift of Valet Parking
The Holiday season is the busiest time of the year for both customers and businesses. Unfortunately, this spike in activity also leads to an increase in traffic accidents for a variety of reasons. The Winter weather is a major factor causing road hazards with uncontrollable variable conditions. However, road rage and negligence can also be factors that play a role in frustration and increased accidents involving motor vehicles.
Fortunately, there is something you can do to ensure your customers are safe and help employees avoid these frustrations when attending company events or their scheduled work shift. Your business should consider giving the gift of Valet Parking. The following are five different ways in which valet parking can help your business and make it stand out against the competition when it comes to customer experience.
Save your Customers money on Parking
Nobody likes to pay for parking, it often starts the shopping experience on the wrong foot. Being received with complimentary valet parking, sets the tone for a pleasant experience and provides a sense of saving money which in turn leads to a shopping mood. Giving a shopper the opportunity to save money before they go in the store will motivate them to spend more when inside.
Wow Factor
Valet parking can make your business stand out by providing an elevated, memorable experience. Customers love the idea of being treated like a V.I.P. Everytime they are treated as such, it becomes something they will remember and often share with friends and colleagues. Word-of-mouth is the easiest and most effective form of advertising. Make sure your business stands out and shoppers will let the world know. The investment will pay for itself and likely provide dividends in the form of return customers and referrals.
Fewer Traffic Accidents on Premises
Valet parking attendants are seasoned drivers with parking skills that are above-average. Allowing them to assist customers in complicated parking lots and fitting into tight spaces will ensure there is a lower risk of accidents. Traffic incidents often require police presence and even towing trucks. The additional congestion caused by blocking lanes during a traffic incident investigation is definitely not what your business needs during the most hectic time of the year. Valet parking helps reduce incidents and allow for normal business operations. Avoid issues by providing the necessary equipment for valet parking staff to assist your customers.
Increased Customer Safety
Dark parking lots and long walks to find your car are some of the top reasons customers turn away from visiting their favorite stores when looking to shop. The peace of mind that comes with complimentary valet parking gives shoppers the confidence and sense of security to shop peacefully.
Employee Punctuality
Not every business has assigned employee-parking, and in the holiday season, finding parking can be a hassle that leaves employees struggling to find where to park. Oftentimes, just trying to find where to park can take up to 30 min of driving around, resulting in your staff coming in late to their work shift. Not only can this be very frustrating to the employee and manager, but also to the customer who is affected by the negative experience of a short-staffed business.
