Service providers are sometimes so busy managing the comings and goings and fixings of vehicles that it’s easy to forget what a pain in the neck it can be to be on the other side, as a vehicle owner. Not only are they without a car or truck for hours to days on end, but they’re presented with an often-pricey bill at the conclusion of its service. And most vehicle owners don’t even have an understanding for what the service entailed, so having a vehicle serviced is triple the pain.
One area where Openbay seeks to help is via Openbay Recommended, a program that directs consumers to the very best service providers near them.
Here’s How to Become an Openbay Recommended Shop:
-
Be Super Responsive
Today, more than ever, customers appreciate immediacy. Openbay Recommended providers usually use OpenbayASP. They’re quick to get back to customers with price quotes and to answer messages.
-
Get Great Ratings and Reviews:
Behind location, the #2 reason consumers select a service provider is ratings and reviews. Openbay Recommended shops have received fantastic ratings and reviews from real customers. Someone can only review a shop on Openbay if they’ve actually completed service there.
Ratings from Google+ and Yelp are also cross-checked on the Openbay platform. -
Use the Platform Often
Openbay Recommended service centers have processed a good deal of work through Openbay. They’re completely familiar with the platform and how it works.
-
Send Automated Quotes
Openbay knows that its users want quick answers when they’re ready to book their car repair. When shops have Automated Quotes enabled, their quotes are immediately blasted out for standard-priced services. No wait needed.
If you think you have what it takes to be an Openbay Recommended shop, please get in touch with our member services team to find out what you’re missing, so you can work to fix it, and get that badge of honor associated with your business.
If you’re a customer, wondering why certain businesses have that badge, now you know. We hope this helps to narrow down the shop that’s best for you, knowing that the Openbay Recommended program is a meritocracy. And know that those shops will continue to work hard to earn your support.
