This is not a sales pitch. I'm sincerely asking for feedback on what we could do, or do better, in order to earn your business.
Even if it's not something I can fix, it would still be good to know. For instance, I realize a lot of people have a loyalty to certain vendor as a result of a long standing personal or business relationship. I go out of my way not to spam this forum with commercial posts so I hope this isn't viewed as objectionable. Brian |

I have a mostly non stock 914, let's call it modified. In my case, inputting my car as a 1973 Porsche 914 on your site gets me to parts I cannot use. Not completely true but since I have parts from various vehicles grafted into a 914 chassis, only your suspension stuff will be relevant to me.
I have bought from GPR, years ago and the parts shipped from Santa Maria (maybe). It does not bother me you are in Dallas but GPR is not my "go to" site for parts. Honestly, Summit Racing is my go to website since they ship from Reno, I get my parts in 2 days using UPS ground. I do want to support the 914 community vendors and I will make an effort to look at GPR first. I do agree with the crowd that your site is not "fun" to navigate. Last time I ordered from GPR I called on the phone because I couldn't find what I needed. Since there is a mass society trend toward anti-socializing and non personal contact, I think you need to invest in better website infrastructure to survive. |
