I have a landing page for used cars, but it's not converting well. The traffic is pretty targeted, having specifically expressed interest in a particular vehicle make & model.
Here's an example: https://zipzip.io/vehicles/9432984
Do you have any ideas about how to better communicate the value proposition and encourage people to complete the on-page contact form?
Thanks,
You have to consider what kinds of people buy used cars. There's probably at least two types (just guessing, but real market research and customer interviews would tell you there's more...).
The value proposition here is: getting details, finding you the best price, being a search engine.
The value proposition here is: making things simple, finding you something that meets your needs.
Now imagine just for those two personas, the user experience of your webpage is going to be totally different.
So my question is... who is your customer? And what needs are important to them?
What do your conversion rates look like, and where do you expect them to be?
I don't know much about used car sales, having never even considered buying one myself. But here are my thoughts on the particular landing page you linked:
Hope this helps!
Thanks those are all really good tips! Especially about the order and commitment
The only reason both phone and email are required is because that's a requirement from the dealers. Otherwise I wouldn't require both.
Stock photo doesn't help. Feels like it is just a generic page.
What did I do to get to this page? Did I search of fill out a form. Show evidence of how I got there to connect my previous action with the next.
Good point about the stock photos. Not all of them have stock photos, many have shots of the actual vehicle in question on the dealer lot. Normally, a user would do a search for a particular make, model and location.
