How it works

One campaign. Your customers. Booked appointments.

01

Start with your database

The event runs to your existing customers. No bought lists, no cold data.

02

We build your event

A bespoke event website in the theme you choose, with artwork to match your brand.

03

Customers are invited

Text messages lead, with email in support. Customers play, win and book a time to visit.

04

Your team fills the diary

A day of Prospecting & Showroom Training on site: your sales team phones your customers and books appointments live.

Example event pages

What your customers see

Every event gets its own landing page, built around a game your customers want to play. These are demo pages for a made-up dealership; yours carries your name, your logo and your offer.

    Example event landing page on a phone

    Hundreds of themes. Your choice.

    The same journey, dressed for your event.

    Black Friday, a plate change, a summer event or an idea of your own. The game, the colours and the artwork are yours to choose; the booking diary behind it stays the same.

    The text invitation

    Most effective

    Text is the most effective way to reach your customers. It lands on the phone in their hand and it gets read.

    Prospecting & Showroom Training

    Every event comes with a trainer in your showroom.

    The campaign gets your customers playing and booking. Prospecting & Showroom Training gets your team ready to make the most of it: a full day on site with a Hayward & Partners trainer, included in the price. It is the part of our events you will not get from a campaign alone.

    1. 1

      Brief the team on the event

      The offer, the prize, the dates and how the booking diary works, so everyone can explain the event in one breath.

    2. 2

      Train structured prospecting

      Who in your database to call first, how to open the call, and how to turn "I'll think about it" into a time in the diary.

    3. 3

      Make the calls, live

      Your team phones your customers there and then, working from the prospecting portal, with the trainer coaching call by call. Every call adds to the bookings the campaign is already bringing in.

    4. 4

      Book appointments on the day

      Every yes goes straight into the event diary. Your team finishes the day with appointments booked and a call plan for the days left before the event.

    The campaign

    • Texts and emails invite your whole database
    • Customers play, win and book online
    • Appointments land in your event diary
    • Runs from launch to the last day of the event

    Plus Prospecting & Showroom Training

    • A trainer on site with your team for the day
    • Your team phones customers to add more bookings
    • Everyone knows the offer before customers arrive
    • A prospecting skill your team keeps afterwards
