As you probably know Nomis Publications is getting ready to launch a new corporate website and among other things will include a new version of HearseHub. This new version of HearseHub will include an exciting new look and some new features.
We are always looking for new features that will make HearseHub better for you, the shopper. We wrack our brains thinking of ways to make it better, we ask our dealers for ideas, and we look at other websites.
The limitation to this method is that for us personally we have never shopped for a funeral vehicle, so we really do not know what you actually need when shopping for a funeral vehicle. Dealers have given us many great ideas for HearseHub, as have the websites. But we wonder are we hitting the mark with you, the funeral vehicle shopper?
Below are the new, current and proposed features for HearseHub. These will let you know what we can do now or in the very near future. What we want to know from you is what can we add or do that will make HearseHub a better shopping experience for you?
New Features:
• Zip Code Distance - In the new system you will be able to enter your zip code and to see the distance a vehicle is from your zip code.
• "Newly Added" Vehicles - This feature will let you quickly locate all vehicles that have been added within the last month.
Long Standing Features:
• Category Search - Offers a search of the inventory by hearse, limousine, or specialty vehicle.
• Car Make Search - Offers a search of the car make, typical makes are Cadillac, Lincoln…
• Body Builder Search - Offers a search of the body builder for the vehicle. Typical options are Superior, S&S, Federal, Eagle…
• Color Search: Offers a search of the vehicle's colors, e.g. Black, White, Gray, Blue…
• Year and Price range searches: Offers a search that will narrow down the vehicles by price or year range.
• Direct Link to the Dealer: Offers the shopper to directly connect to the dealer’s website where additional information can be gathered.
Proposed Feature:
• Matching Fleet Vehicles - We are considering the possibility of being able to note on a vehicle's ad the fact that the vehicle has matching fleet vehicles and being able to directly show the vehicle(s).
Again we ask if you have an idea that will make HearseHub better, please share it with us. Also the proposed idea for noting matching fleet vehicles is just that a proposed idea, if you think it might offer value to your shopping experience and want it implemented, please let us know. You are why HearseHub was created and why we endeavor to make it better.
