Mobile Marketing and Your Car Detailing Business

Mobile phones are used at home as much as they are used on the road and they encourage multi-tasking. Smartphone users look for a wide variety of information ranging from news to restaurant information to sports to games and to shopping. When they do search, 89% of them do so with a degree of urgency. They want results now, and if your car detailing business can't give it to them, they will go elsewhere. Sorry, you just lost the sale! Many will be looking for express detailing services and car hand washes. They want something better than just driving their expensive, well cared for car through a tunnel wash.

Mobile marketing is expanding at a remarkable speed and also has the most upside potential, although less than 6% of businesses are doing any type of mobile marketing today. Companies that generate less than $10 million per year that percentage drops even more drastically to less than .05%. What this means to the car detailing business owner is that now is the best time to start leveraging mobile marketing. Now is the time to strike and separate your car detailing business from the competition by developing a marketing campaign to expand your brand to the Smartphone users.

There are various mobile marketing methods to advertise your car care products and car detail services to Smartphone users. The most popular is sending SMS, or short messaging device (text messages). Other forms of mobile marketing include MMS (multimedia messaging service), in-game marketing, and mobile web marketing. Your business should also have a mobile web site that can be found when searched and provides information simply and quickly to the searcher. If your current web site is difficult to easily view on a Smartphone then you should consider having a mobile website developed. Or you may also want to consider having a mobile App for your business. The App can be a great compliment to your main web site.
