Marketing Strategy for High Traffic Area?

[autowarrior]

So our shop is located on a street with heavy rush hour traffic, and lots of traffic at other times. do spinner signs or feather flags work for areas like this? everyday from 4pm to 6pm, vehicles are lined up and parked for about 3 blocks everytime the traffic light at the intersection 1/2 a block away from our shop goes red.

what sort of marketing can i engage for these vehicles?

Get in your car and drive it at rush hour, look toward your shop and see what parts of your shop stand out. If you can, take someone with you and a camera and take pictures to help you visualize the shop's facade.

 

While you are at it, have a memo recorder, record your observations and anything that stands out. Next, think about what the people stuck in traffic could be thinking about, and the problems they could be having with their cars, e.g.:

 

Check engine light on? ABS light on? A/C doesn't work? Heater doesn't work? Belt's squealing, car making weird loud noises? Etc.

 

Then make a sign that stands out and appeals to them to come into your shop.

I put a lot of the feather flags out when we moved into our new location. They definitely got a lot of attention. You can't just put 1 or 2 though. PM me and I'll send you the link for the best ones I found.

maybe a digital sign if you can fit it in somewhere.
