Once you’ve nailed the basics of your profile, you might be wondering whether there’s anything extra you can do to make your garage stand out. The answer is yes - here are a few ways to make the most of your account and attract more customers.
Networks and accreditations
FixMyCar members can join prestigious networks and partner with some of the biggest names in the automotive industry, including eBay, Cazoo and Close Brothers.
These shared promotional partnerships make your garage stand out and can help reinforce your pricing since customers can see that you value quality. They also provide you with access to additional workstreams.
The networks you join are displayed on your garage profile - you can see how they look in the image below.
Networks are free to join, but there are specific requirements you must meet first. If you have any questions or want to learn more about which networks you can be a part of, email team@whocanfixmycar.com or contact your account manager.
My discounts
One of the things you can do to win more work is offer discounts. For example, many garages run a Black Friday sale, and some advertise a lower price if customers book two services together. Here’s how to do it.
First, go to ‘my discounts’ in the navigation bar on the left side of the screen.
Then, click ‘create new discount’, which will bring the following text box up:
All you have to do now is search for the job category you want to discount (such as MOT), decide whether to discount it by a percentage or a monetary amount and slide the toggle to ‘on’. Potential customers will see that your price is discounted when they receive quotes.
FixMyCar members benefit from exclusive offers, such as discounted EV training, insurance, tools and other equipment. The platform isn’t just designed to help you win more work but also to offer customers the best possible service by staying up-to-date with the latest tools and techniques.
You can access these discounts by clicking ‘exclusive offers’ in the navigation bar.
