Independent Garage Association offers websites

The Independent Garage Association (IGA) is offering to help its members set up websites in order to increase trade. Stuart James, RMI IGA Director, explained: "Offering our members a website is helping to bring additional business into their workshops and is an opportunity to market their garage to the modern consumer."

A recent IGA survey discovered that thousands of garages are missing out on one of the most effective, efficient and up-to-date ways of promoting their business due to not having a website.

In order to assist IGA members with no website for their business and to help them become part of our increasingly web focussed society, the IGA is providing this as an additional member benefit which will enable garages to have a website built for them.

The only additional cost they will incur will be minimal which will pay for the hosting of the site and purchase of the address which they will remain the owners of. This will still cost less than placing an advert in the local press and will raise their profile substantially

James continued “The IGA is committed to ensuring that all its members are able to take full advantage of internet marketing. This is why we made the decision to offer this new scheme. We can now ensure that members have the tools to promote their businesses to the best of their ability.”
