Repair Shop Websites (RSW) and Body Shop Websites (BSW) recently surpassed supplying 1,250 customers with Web site services for the automotive aftermarket.
The two brands of WingSwept’s Vertical Market division provide Web sites for shops to satisfy current clients while gaining new ones.
A recent study done by Sageworks, a company that focuses on developing financial analysis tools for private companies, has gathered data that indicates the seven industries that have experienced above-average sales. Auto repair shops, as one of the seven succeeding industries, have seen an average of 2.4 percent increase of sales over the past 12 months.
This growth can partly be accredited to the economy and people focusing on fixing their older automotives rather than purchasing new vehicles. While the automotive repair shops are aiding car owners during the recession, RSW and BSW report they are reaching out to auto repair and body shop owners.
The Web sites offer key benefits such as leveling the playing field with new car dealerships and giving competitive advantage over local shops without websites. The RSW and BSW’s customized Web sites help owners to expand and diversify their client base through 24/7 advertising.
More and more shop owners are seeing the importance of a professional, functional, and low priced website in this time of technology and frugality. In turn, the WingSwept’s Vertical Markets division should expect to see their customer base grow 8 to 12 percent per month, the company reports.
