Central Spares have launched two of their biggest pre-season campaigns to date, on pre-season orders for Briggs & Stratton parts and the very popular Gardencare machinery range.
With strong traffic numbers - the momentum continues. In our launch phase, on average Garden Trader delivered 560 users who were actively looking to make a purchase (product or service) to individual dealer profile pages. The majority of these also clicked through to individual dealer web sites - so very warm leads. Not bad in a tough year. All subscribed dealers can check their listing's analytics just by logging in. Garden Trader delivers amazing value for just £1.84 per week and we don't believe any other form of highly targeted digital promotion can rival this. Better still, it is promoting our highly skilled dealer network in the UK and helping fight discount based zero value online retailers and DIY stores.
