What retailers say
Douglas Yeadon Hardware
“Shoppers are finding we stock specific, sometimes obscure products in Google, then they come into the shop and buy other bits and pieces on top!’”
Brundall Home Hardware
“It's been a very very simple process and easy to engage with NearSt, normally these things are very complicated and it's been made really simple. I was expecting it to be a lot of hassle, and in fact it's been astonishingly smooth and a pleasure. I put something on social media 1 day in to let our customers know they could find our products on Google and people have said they've already seen us... I'm chuffed people are coming in saying they've discovered us online. One customer said she hadn't been in for over 20 years, she saw we were cheaper than B&Q and said she's going to come to us before she goes anywhere else in the future. We have lots and lots of anecdotes of people coming in after finding us in Google. Very happy."
Shop Owner
Tonwood Home Hardware
“NearSt is proving very effective through Google Searches by customers. We have also now provided a link from our website to NearSt to enable customers to check our stock.”
Gardners Mica Hardware
“I wish I’d known about NearSt years ago!”
County DIY Hardware
"NearSt truly drives more people into your shop. One day we had half a dozen customers- all one after the other- come into my shop asking for my products that they'd found in Google. The insights also matched what we saw in our sales reports"
R W Mortens Hardware
“We had six or seven instances where customers actually came into the shop saying they searched for our products online and we came up in Google - each of these led to a sale! I’m sure there were many more instances where local people came to the shop after finding us on Google...I would recommend NearSt to other retailers as a way to increase footfall“.
