Luxury Channel EP #4: Dry Run: Major Keys to Event Transportation Success, Vol. #1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjcMcRc8hoI

A "Dry Run" is one of the most POWERFUL and Productive preps you can do to ensure your Event Transportation in NYC is a Success.

 

A "Dry Run" can be done without the Full Fleet of cars that have been booked for the Event Transportation. However, we do suggest doing the Run with a few "Event Captains" that will assist the other drivers on Event Day.

 

We suggest doing the Run 72 to 48 hours before Event Day to keep things fresh and accurate. Things change quickly in big cities like NYC. Consequently, the last thing you want is to have expired guidelines.

 

Try to do a Run even if its not in the budget. We suggest doing a Run with at least ONE vehicle so you can get a "feel" of the Event Route.

 

All of your chauffeurs will be looking to YOU, the Event Captain, for guidance and direction.

 

Completing a "Dry Run" gives you the confidence of knowing the best ROUTE and PLAN possible. Furthermore, use this knowledge to plan Event Transportation and results will be infectious. A client is able to feel when they are good hands. Once you cement that feeling, what could go wrong?

 

Feel free to check out what YOU can book from Luxury Ride, in respects to Event Transportation.

It is a wild time to be alive. Technology has taken us into a world where almost anyone and everyone can find a niche. The Service Industry as a whole is booming.

Executive Transportation | Luxury Ride NYC

Luxury Channel EP #2: What Separates Luxury Ride from Another Transportation Vendor?

IN THE CUSTOMER SERVICE INDUSTRY, A CONSUMER HAS TWO CHOICES: HIGH-END OR AVERAGE.

 

TAKE EXECUTIVE TRANSPORTATION IN NYC AS AN EXAMPLE.

 

LUXURY RIDE IS PROVIDING YOU WITH THE SAME SERVICE AS A WAVED-DOWN TAXI OR UBER: TRANSPORTATIONSO WHY IS THERE A PRICE DIFFERENCE?

 

One Reason: THE EXPERIENCE.

 

The Business World today is becoming filled with new innovators who provide a large landscape of different services. It is great to see so much desire out there - but at what cost?

 

The paradox of Customer-Service, especially Executive Transportation, based companies is that many people can perform or provide said service. In addition, this means that some of those people may be trying to just make a dollar rather than provide a trend-setting service. Furthermore, it is those people who are entering the industry of Executive Transportation in N YC that simultaneously break it down.

 

LUXURY RIDE ASPIRES TO BREAK THROUGH THE MOLD OF NORMALCY.

 

Constantly, Luxury Ride is working in NYC and staying in front of the trends in the Executive Transportation Industry to assure that we are never copping a style, but making a style.

 

& THE MISSION IS TO SHARE THAT STYLE WITH THE WORLD.

 

Listen to Luxury Ride's CEO & Founder, Boris Gachevski, explain what his 3 ingredients to a Flawless Executive Transportation Service in NYC are.

Luxury | Car Service | Chauffeur | Luxury Ride | JFK EWR LaGuardia

What's the Difference Between a "Driver" & a "Chauffeur"?

IT IS NO SECRET;

 

A LUXURY CAR SERVICE COSTS MORE THAN A NORMAL DRIVER. HERE IN NYC, A CHAUFFEUR IS WORTH MORE THAN A DRIVER.

 

AT LUXURY RIDE, WE PROVIDE AN EXPERIENCE, NOT JUST A CAR RIDE.

 

SO WHAT IS THE REAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A "CHAUFFEUR" AND THE OTHER DRIVERS?

 


 

EXPERIENCE

 

First of all, EXPERIENCE is a major key. Luxury Ride has spent time looking for our "Model" Chauffeur. We do not rush hiring - we want to make sure the Chauffeur we are enlisting is experienced. Especially relevant in NYC, it is important that your vendor knows the ins-and-outs. Knows where to go, generally, without having to GPS. Knowing backroads and alternate routes faster than the Navigational System. Knowing how to treat a passenger.

 

Consequently, our quarrel with taxis and companies such as Uber is that; probably, anyone can become a driver. Our man Tony who worked five years in the Finance Department of a big Corporation decided he wants to drive people for Uber or another car service in NYC. And just because he has a degree from a fancy college with a pampered resume DOES NOT mean he knows how to take care of important passengers.

 

TRAINING

 

Much as what we were just saying, the fact that a driver can become part of the market in a matter of two weeks or less should show the minimal skill. Therefore, our experience provided to passengers is built upon our TRAINED Chauffeurs. All of our Chauffeurs, regardless of experience, go through Luxury Ride training upon hiring. Especially relevant in NYC, it is important our representatives are prepared for any task.

 

The just-hired Chauffeur was hired by us because we know that they have the baseline traits of a Luxury Driver. As a result, we then work with our Chauffeurs to detail the Luxury Ride Image we wish them to portray to each and every passenger. No ride at Luxury Ride is ever the same. We made sure of that while crafting our training!

 

REPUTATION

 

Most of all, the concept of Chauffeur puts forth the concept Luxury and Upper Class. A driver is someone who can drive you to your

destination. No matter where the Chauffeur comes from, the passenger will know the difference upon booking. Furthermore, The reputation behind a Chauffeur is not easily acquired. Many a car service will let a driver just get behind the wheel, while a Chauffeur must earn their title.

 

IMAGE

 

Most noteworthy, The reputation of a Chauffeur is Luxury. If you book one, how does that look for you? As a result, their reputation of Luxury turns into your Image of the same. Furthermore, showing your associates that looks do indeed matter is important. Trust us; there will be a difference, overall, when you are dropped off at your Noon meeting on in NYC Madison Ave by our Luxury-suited Chauffeur in a

crisp Mercedes S550 - as opposed to Tom, from the no-name Car Service, dropping you off in his Nissan Sentra. Finally, five minutes late.

 

Therefore, maybe not much needs to be said on this aspect; but in conclusion, the fact that a Luxury Driver is in a suit, and another driver, from the no-name car service, is in cargo shorts, SAYS ENOUGH.

 

BUT WHAT DO I KNOW? BOOK A RIDE, SEE THE DIFFERENCE FOR YOURSELF. WE'LL BE WAITING BY THE PHONE FOR YOU!

Luxury Channel EP #1: How to Choose a Luxury Car Service in NYC & Why Video is Important

 

How to Choose a Luxury Car Service in NYC:

Why Video is important

 

The Problem:

 

The over saturation of the Car Service Industry has caused a deep level of mistrust for the consumer, especially NYC. 

Any average joe with moderate credit and access to the Internet can claim to be a Professional Transportation Company!

These Amateurs have tainted the Industry's name and lowered the expectations of the consumer.

 

4 WAYS AMATEURS HAVE TAINTED THE INDUSTRY:

 

1. Continuously Arriving Late

Why does your car arrive late? In our experience it is because of a lack of or breakdown of communication.

 

 2. Using Old & Dirty Vehicles

Why does my Car Service send me old cars? Because quality is not high enough on their list of importance.

 

          3. Lack Of or Poor Customer Service

Why does my driver make me feel uncomfortable? Lack of proper training and chauffeur education

 

4. Downright Dishonesty

Why does my provider tell me the car will be their in 5 minutes but it takes 25 minutes?

 

This has lead the Consumer to question "Why am I paying a premium for a Luxury Car Service and the vendor resembles a Taxi Service?"

 

 

How to Choose a Luxury Car Service in NYC:

The Solution:

 

VIDEO! Not all Transportation Companies are the same and video can prove it. The companies that take the time to educate their customers are the ones that are transparent. Meaning: the ones you can trust.

 

When you continually put the customer's best interest first, you do not have anything to hide. Video lets you get a behind-the-scenes peak into the operations systems used by top Luxury Car Service providers.

 

Now the Consumer has the opportunity to make an educated choice and control the level of service they receive because of the truth Video provides.

 

WHAT TO LOOK FOR? Look for companies with video's on how their operations system work. How their chauffeurs are trained, and the culture and vales their company represents.

 

In conclusion, If your Car Service provider is not using Video to showcase it's operations - it might be time for you to look for another Transportation Vendor!

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

 

David :Hey Luxury Riders we are here at the Vegas LCT conference with Jessica from "Inbound Marketing Solutions" and she's gonna give me some great advice of how to do video, so the first question we have for you Jessica is why is video important?

 

Jessica : Sure David, video is one of the most highly converting mediums you can use in marketing today. Whether you shoot your video with an iPhone like we're doing right now, then you post on your Facebook page, then you put it on your YouTube channel, and then you send it in an email to your friends. Video is the number one platform people use. It is so engaging, it is personal, you can capture information in real time, and people love it.

 

David: how does video effect you as far as your SEO and Google rankings?

 

Jessica: video is optimized when you post it on YouTube, Facebook , and on Google. It continues to optimize and boost your SEO numbers up.

 

David: Thanks Jessica that is very good information. As far as limousine operators, what is the best platform to drive sales?

 

Jessica: So there's not one blanket social media platform that works well for everyone. It really depends on what your primary customer is. And where those customers are hanging out online. So if your retail driven you're doing a lot of weddings, proms and social activities you're gonna want to be on Facebook or Pinterest. Where as your more corporate driven, travel managers, DMC's, those audiences are primarily on LinkedIn and a little bit on Twitter. Pick the social media channel that's best for your audience. And really target them there before you move onto another area.

 

David : How do you feel about Instagram in regards to celebrity clientele? People like singers, actors, athletes - do you think Instagram is a good vehicle to reach these types of people?

 

Jessica: I think so, Instagram is great! Much like video photographs are doing a great job of converting. You can even add your video to Instagram it does a great job of telling your story to potential clients.
