With over 12,000 listings on ebay.com for Car DVD Player, it is
clear that this is the next big thing in in-car entertainment. If you
happen to stock the product then you are going to be in the
money.
But how can you maximize your returns from your site.
One way is to accessorize. By offering car accessories on
you store you will increase the amount your customers are
spending and increase your revenue.
Seems like a little bit of a no-brainer doesn’t it?
But what are some of the accessories you can list alongside
your automotive DVD products?
Car PC: This is probably the ultimate accessory for the Car DVD
Player.
Hook up a car PC that will convert the DVD player into a mobile
internet, gaming, security and communication center.
When a fully functional PC is connected to a car DVD Player then
it goes from being just a DVD player to being a mobile internet
platform right there in the customers’ car. They also work as a
semi GPS option thanks to the development of Google maps and
Yahoo maps.
These computers don’t exactly break the bank and start from
USD 150 onwards.
Reversing Cameras: Now provide your customers with the
ultimate parking tool.
Reversing camera are visual aides that are mounted on the
rear of the car. They hook up to the DVD player and give the
driver a better visual guide of what is going on behind them.
There are also reversing aides which give drivers spoken
feedback on exactly what is behind them and when to stop.
Stock these cameras and see your customers smile all the way
into tight parking spaces. With prices ranging from USD 35
onwards they are very affordable impulse items after that big
car DVD sale.
Bluetooth Car kits: Another great accessory that adds to your
store and is reasonably priced is the range of Bluetooth car kits
that can be connected to Car DVD players. These enable drivers
to talk on their cell phones while driving.
The receiver is routed via the car speakers, while there is an
external mike that the driver talks into, without having to take
his hands off the wheel and eyes of the road.
Fun Accessories: The addition of a video screen to the car
entertainment system opens up a world of possibilities for in-car
entertainment.
For example, connect the DVD with a car video recorder and you
can get instant playback (and record) of what is happening on
the road.
This, of course, takes the back seat driving experience to a
whole new level, but that’s probably a small price to pay for the
fun and entertainment these cameras provide.
Amplifiers, video boosters, Digital TV receivers and sound
activated lights, the list of products that you can offer along with
your car DVD player is sure to keep your customers interested
and happy.
Listing these products on your store alongside car DVD players
has a number of benefits that you are likely to notice
immediately:
* You can offer more special bundling deals
* You will be able to differentiate from other car DVD vendors
* You will increase your average return per user
* You will increase your longtail keyword traffic
* Your customers will be tempted to spend more than they
initially planned to.
When listing these car DVD accessories take the following things
into consideration:
** Does This Enhance the Drivers’ Experience? **
The critical issue for listing an accessory is how it improves the
experience that can be derived from the car DVD player.
Safety products are generally always hot, and products like the
rear-view camera or Bluetooth calling kits that enhance car
safety will be hit, especially with parents.
Sound quality has always been a critical issue in car
entertainment and any accessories that enhances that is critical.
** How Easy Is It To Install? **
The products featured here are a mixed bag when it comes to
installation. Some of them can be installed even by novices,
while it is best to leave the installation of others to experienced
professionals. Make sure the customer knows exactly how much
work will be involved in the fitting of the unit.
Car DVDs are to electronics today what the netbook is to
computing. What that also means is the number of resellers
competing for buyers is huge. Use these accessories to get
ahead and get noticed.
