To become AskPatty.com Certified Female Friendly®, the personnel at these local Meineke® Car Care Centers completed an extensive training program on how to best serve women. These Meineke® Car Care Centers employees will participate in year-round instruction to enhance their awareness, appreciation, and commitment to a female-friendly service experience.
"Women influence 85 percent of the buying decisions in North American households, effectively becoming the family's chief purchasing officer," says Jody DeVere, CEO of AskPatty.com, Inc. " AskPatty trains and certifies automotive businesses on how to communicate more effectively with women and ensure they feel safe, respected and empowered, which creates tremendous customer loyalty. Meineke® Car Care Centers’ commitment to women shows that management is serious about earning their business."
In conjunction with AskPatty.com, Meineke® Car Care Centers in Virginia Beach have launched two female-focused micro-sites that provide the tools and resources most requested by women. The micro-site gives women the ability to schedule service appointments, access coupons and discounts, and learn more about car buying and maintenance online from the comfort of their home or office. The micro-site is easily accessed by searching on AskPatty.com, or by going directly to their site.
