Why do I need valet?
Our top 5 reasons you should consider valet services, beyond the insurance savings benefit.
1. Relief from parking Anxiety
Have you ever pulled into a busy parking lot only to find you cannot fit due to the inadequate parking skills of others? Alternatively, have you ever been forced into a parking spot that seems crude at best? We’ve all been there…
Having a valet can alleviate parking anxiety for potential customers. Rather than having to try and squeeze into a lot that isn't secure, that may not have any spaces, or stressing over if you can even park there; the customer is now worry free. They can hand the keys and car over and know their car is secure, safe, and in the correct location/space. When they’re ready, the car is brought right back to them! Valet can ultimately simplify your clients experience, especially in a high traffic areas. Having a parking professional managing logistics at your location will maximize parking capacity and overall business value. This will result in more customers in your business. It’s a win/win/win for our clients, the valet, and the customer!
2. Security
Having a valet present in your parking lot can help to discourage damage caused by would-be thieves or reckless drivers. Your customers can enjoy their time at your place of business knowing that their cars will be safely looked after. Moreover, it can deter non-patrons from parking in your parking lot. You don't want people utilizing your parking area to patronize another business. Having an attentive valet determine if someone is intending on going to your business or not can even boost the potential for new customers!
3. Professional first impression.
Having valet can make your business look and feel more professional, it can draw people in, and make them feel "taken care of" before they reach your doors. No matter the weather or time of day, having a good valet take care of your customers when they arrive and leave is sure to make them feel pampered. This results in a high probability of repeat customers, remember, valets have regulars too!
4. Cleanliness.
Having a proactive valet service working with you can help maintain a parking-lots appearance. We don't just park cars, we look after your parking lot as a whole. We will do whatever we can to help in its appearance and functionality. Let us help streamline parking efficiency for you, and ultimately your patrons!
5. Damage control.
The last thing anyone wants, is to come back to a car that's been damaged by the careless actions of others. Scratched door panels, a dinged fender, or even missing mirrors are all examples of damage people have returned to after leaving their cars unattended in parking facilities. Our clients know that having a dedicated location for valet parking means that all the parking is done by a professional. Your customers can rest assured that they won't have a nasty surprise waiting for them. Of course, we recognize no one is perfect, mistakes can happen. For those rare circumstances we carry a minimum $2,000,000 aggregate insurance policy that will cover the cost of damages. Coverage and accountability is always better than an illegible note left on the window!
