The journey to work is a daily reality for many Australians with many social, economic and environmental consequences. In Australia 9.2 million people were recorded as commuting by car to work on Census day, on average travelling 16.5 kilometres (km) to reach their workplace. Of the 9.2 million commuters on Census day, 79% travelled to work by private vehicle, 14% took public transport and 5.2% either cycled or walked. Think about it – that’s a lot of people commuting by car and a lot of car parks needed.
By utilising Share with Oscar’s platform, you can instantly reach our community of almost 10 million drivers, including those specifically looking for parking in your area. Did you know that there is only 1 parking space for every 6 drivers in our urban cities? Yet there is so much unused space for the most part of the day that’s hidden, locked away and private.
Instead of building more unsightly parking lots, let’s help each other by lending what we already have, and making the most efficient use of space. Oscar helps members of the community to earn some additional income whilst unlocking more parking spaces for the drivers who need them. You rent out your home parking whilst you are at work, unlocking space for someone else to use on their commute.
You’ll have your own profile page, so drivers can see parking instructions, Google Street View photos & images of your facilities, enhancing the overall parking experience for drivers. We believe that as a community, we can help solve our city’s commuting by car and parking woes.
Today’s customers enjoy the modern, stress-free experience of booking services via apps. From holidays to taxis to your weekly shopping, people want a quick and seamless solution – and parking is no different especially when commuting by car.
By allowing bookable parking at your car park you’ll be tapping into an audience who look for this experience – in fact, car parks without these options are already seeing less traffic to their sites. So, stay ahead of the curve and move your offering into the ‘Bookable Age’, it’s good for your customers and great for you.
A huge part of maximising the revenue generated from your spaces is repeat bookings. The game changer for this is the driver’s experience and that relies on how smoothly things go at the car park. A bad experience can lead to the driver not booking again, as well as a negative review; likely reducing demand and impacting revenue.
Have you got clear signage and instructions? Is the car park easy to find and drive around? Australia can be a confusing place, especially for people new to the country so try and make your listing as clear as possible. Think of it as the airbnb of car parks!
Working with our partners, we collaborate on making the best possible experience using our checklist. Over the last 12 months, we have been working with various clients and partners who had negative reviews and worked together to change them into 4 and 5 stars.
As a result, we were able to notify users on which spaces were available and have since seen a great uplift in bookings and repeat ones. A pleasant experience for your drivers will lead to more income from your spaces.
Many businesses who try and push demand to their parking spaces often don’t see the results they were aiming for because they can’t reach the right target audience. By utilising the Share with Oscar platform, you can instantly reach our community of almost 1 million drivers, including those specifically looking for parking in your area. You’ll have your own profile page, so drivers can see parking instructions, Google Street View photos & images of your facilities, enhancing the overall parking experience for drivers.
