The Challenge
Norm Reeves Honda Superstore was receiving a lower than expected number of views for their Value Your Trade tool. They were missing out on potential leads from shoppers looking to sell or trade their vehicle.
Solution
Add a Sell/Trade button to the main navigation and a “Click to Call” call-to-action to the Value Your Trade page to increase page views and engagement from value trade shoppers.
Hypothesis
Improving the visibility of the Value Your Trade page for website visitors, as well as adding more convenient conversion points on the page itself, would compel more users to engage.
Approach
A Sell/Trade button was added to the main navigation on February 4th, 2020.
A “Click to Call” call-to-action was added as an additional conversion point (good for mobile shoppers).
The new conversion points were now easier to find, leading to a dramatic increase in Value
Your Trade pageviews as well as total engagements from value trade shoppers.

Results
Data shown is shoppers who viewed the Value Your Trade page.
After adding the new navigation button, all traffic and conversions increased across the site with the exception of form submissions. This makes sense, however, since form submissions shown in this data include only first-party forms, not KBB forms. By adding this tool to the navigation, sell/trade shoppers have increased their engagement and average session duration +11.11% YoY.

A Sell/Trade call-to-action was also promoted on Google My Business, which resulted in over 2.65K views. What’s more, website traffic from potential customers who wanted to trade or sell their vehicle increased as well. And finally, return website visitors also increased.
This simple addition to the navigation menu has been proven to give users what they are looking for (for shoppers looking to upgrade their current vehicle) by increasing their engagement and returning visits.
