Pit Crew Marketing: product details

Pit Crew Marketing's pages describe a customer loyalty program for independent auto repair shops built on a theory it calls its own version of self-determination: that people are motivated by four needs, to love and be loved, to belong to something bigger and to feel competent. The program uses charitable giving and community good deeds in place of traditional advertising.

Its solutions page lists a customer grading report, a marketing playbook, iMatrixPro customer account pages, email and SMS reminders, reward dollars and gift certificates, digital gift cards, referrals, roadside assistance, an oil change club and segmented messaging.

The pages describe repair shops, not franchised dealerships, so a service department should ask whether the program connects to its DMS and CSI process and whether rewards can be issued within manufacturer rules. The site says the company has built loyalty programs for 26 years, which a store can test by asking for shop references and retention numbers.
