What Custom Content Does Dealership Tools Offer?

Dealership websites do more than show off the dealers’ cool boats and motors, they offer a place for the potential customers to interact with the dealership before taking the drive into the shop or marina. Some companies do not think this is important, that if the customer wanted a boat bad enough, they would come to them. That’s not how things work in Today’s world. Now-a-days it takes communication, trust and effort to make your customers feel comfortable with buying such an expensive item.

Building a rapport with your clients will ensure that they feel good buying a boat or motor from you, recommending you to their friends & family, coming back to you (specifically) for service & repair and buying parts and accessories (if you offer them).

Custom content creation is the backbone of a website. While your boat and/or motor inventory is what your users originally come to your site to view; interactive, helpful, informational and encouraging content can make your users stay on your site. Running a successful dealership is not only about having cool boats. Conversing, whether in person or via written words, with your possible customers makes them feel safe wanted and appreciated.

Making your customers feel wanted is a whole other side of the business, some may not think of or even agree with. If you are amongst the group of companies that don’t necessarily have the most informative site, DT’s can help generate and create the most helpful content and then display it prominently on your site.

If you are part of the industry that disagrees with displaying content on a website or maybe even having a site at all, give the DT’s Team a chance to show you how much of a difference some simple content can do for your clientele. Finally, if you are part of the business owner population that is just too small or too busy to keep up with a website and add custom up-to-date content, that can be done for you as well.

Based on the package you choose, DT’s generates various forms of content. Most companies don’t have the time or a large enough team to do it themselves, and that’s why this service exists; to be your one-stop-shop. The DT’s team continually researches the marine industry and generates content that pertains to marine life, the marine economy, dealerships, manufacturers, boat shows, seafood recipes, or any other information you see fit.

Website content is a general term. DT’s creates content for various types of recommended pages, such as a services page, founders page, staff/locations page, upcoming events page, blog page, community/ sponsorships page and if your dealership offers financing, a financial services page as well.

Articles are a special type of content that offers a separate power to your website. If an internet user is interested in a specific piece of information or seafood recipe and you have a version displayed on your site, if written properly, upon a Google search your article or recipe may pop up and you can potentially gain a new customer.

Adding articles and recipes to your site will give you a leg up, meaning it will give another avenue for your potential customers to find you. Additionally, adding these to your site may keep your current customer/ user base on your site longer and provide another item for your users to talk to their friends and families about.

Generating monthly newsletters to a group of interested customers/ potential customers/ users will keep them in contact with the company and continually remind them that you are there to help or offer them a sale or special on something they may be interested in.

Dealership Tools can create customized newsletters that can be sent out as frequently as you may like. The newsletters typically include new boat models, models for sale, articles, recipes, upcoming events and anything else that will draw attention to your dealership. Reports are then generated after the month’s end so you can see how well the newsletter did. Reports can be adjusted based on your companies needs.

Press releases are essentially short “news worthy” alerts about your site, special or event. Our team will generate the content for you, as well as distribute the press releases out to only the best of press release directories. These directories will determine where they display and how.

Press releases are an optional marketing feature. If you are unsure, start with testing the waters and reviewing the reports. If press releases don’t seem to be helping out your business as anticipated, the budget for these can be moved to accommodate PPC campaigns or additional content.
