Survey claims that consumers find car show rooms intimidating. 06/07/11
A recent survey conducted by the Auto Trader new car website has claimed that 74% of customers feel uncomfortable about visiting new car show rooms. It was claimed that this figure is higher than for any other sales environment.
The survey states that almost half of the respondents stated that the 'perceived attitude of staff' caused them to be anxious about visiting a show room, in addition to this it was found that 47% of people found the lack of price tags on cars to be a contributory factor.
When asked what factors may help make the whole experience more pleasant, 37% said that being provided with more information would be helpful and 49% said that being able to browse at their leisure would also help.
In seems that as we have become accustomed to browsing for purchases on the internet at our leisure, there may be more work needed to help consumers feel more at ease during an actual visit to the show room.
