Reading Time: 2 minutes

Are you considering the transformation of your bike shop into a comprehensive solution catering to the needs of both your existing and potential customers? Velotooler presents a diverse set of entirely free features designed to support you in this endeavor.

One of our most recent enhancements is the At Shop Assembly feature. This feature enables Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) brands to provide their customers with the convenience of shipping to local stores. What’s more, it comes with complete pricing control, allowing bike shops the freedom to set their own pricing and expectations.

But that’s not all. When bikes arrive at the shop address, there’s an option to be authorized by a brand as their preferred or exclusive service provider. This feature, too, comes with full price control, empowering bike shops to determine the price for new assembly or after-sale services. If any additional charges are needed to resolve a service issue, bike shops can easily create an extra charge and receive payment. This streamlined multilayer process eliminates the need for time-consuming communication via phone, email, or checks.

The At Shop Assembly feature is excellent for attracting new customers to your shop. However, Velotooler offers even more features to bring in new customers and enhance profitability.

These features include:

1. Allowing customers to book in-store appointments through your website.
2. Introducing mobile services such as pick-up and delivery during specific dates or hours.
3. Setting up premium in-store services with higher charges for service priority.

By offering these three service types, your bike shop can provide customers with a diverse range of options directly from your website. You can charge premium prices upfront for emergency services and pick-up and delivery options.

What’s more, trying Velotooler as a bike shop won’t cost you a thing. You get access to all the software for free, and there are no fees for listing your services on your website. The only fees incurred, by you and your customers, are the standard credit card transaction fees. Velotooler can also assist in implementing a booking widget on your website, making it even simpler for your customers to schedule appointments.

In summary, Velotooler offers an array of features to help your bike shop attract new customers, boost profitability, and streamline communication with brands. If you’re interested in learning more about how Velotooler can benefit your bike shop, schedule a call session here.
