FINDING THE KEY MAKER / LOCKSMITH IN DUBAI

Let me share with you a recent example when we acquired a new space to use it as a distribution warehouse for the supply of our goods to the market. We urgently needed services of a Key Maker in Dubai who could not only provide us with the best products and services but also budgetary prices and yes, the after-sales services as well. It was the time when we realized that time really changed now, this complex technology has simplified the services and shrunken globe’s distances from miles to minutes. My uncle turned himself towards the right, dragged a huge, thick volume and started going through its index.

Keymaker in Dubai on your fingertips

It was the typical Business Directory in which local businesses details were available like their products, services, location, working hours and other such stuff. It took him more than 5 minutes to reach to the required section of locksmith services, in the meantime, his office assistant proactively responded and started browsing for the locksmith online, I am mentioning all this in detail just to share the difference of both the approaches, sorted out 3 local locksmith services providers, printed their details and put that in front of my uncle.

Traditional also got digital

My uncle was amazed of his swift action, though appreciated him for being active but didn’t appear to be satisfied with the output, i.e. list of locksmith services providers in Dubai, until I showed and convinced him that the traditional business directories like Yellow Pages have also got digitalized and providing the majority of their services online, that is, through their portal and mobile apps.

However, we took a detailed review of the list and decided to hire the services of Keymaker in Dubai, who appeared to be one of the trustworthy locksmith services providers, though it didn’t claim to be the No.1. Key maker locksmith in Dubai. We swiftly got into contact with these guys on their contact # 0559840111 and till those locksmith technicians were on the way to our location, we resumed our discussion of finding a local key maker or locksmith in Dubai.  

Look for Locksmith via the phone book

As per observation, use of phone books to search the business has its own pros like:

  • Some demographics, like my uncle, still use the Yellow Pages
  • Phone directories are a $3 billion business, in fact, a substantial amount still
  • Usually preferred by larger brands, as they can afford to put their business in it

While following are the limitations that add to the phone book advertising cons:

  • 70% of the clients, rather much more than this ratio, are lazy to open the phone book, if not reluctant, because of
  • Its impression of conducting search manually, i.e. turning up page by page
  • Less effective than online display advertising
  • For advertisers, there is no way to track leads generated through the phone book

Walk around to find a key maker near your location

If you are a guy like me who thinks that there are several locksmith service providers in Dubai with whom you can meet and discuss, then pick up the car key and find a one, but in fact, this would remain the least convenient option especially in a busy city like Dubai.  

Mobile Apps to find the key maker

Although, for the majority of us, use of mobile apps to find a key maker in Dubai would seem to be the extreme of convenience it has got its own list of pros and cons, out of which some of the pros are:

  • For smart users
  • Provides a list of service providers offering a wide range of services

While its cons are:

  • Would provide a list of available locksmiths, not a particular one
  • Listed rates are in general which are more likely to be higher than the direct locksmith service providers
  • Consumes useless space on phone, becoming an overload for infrequent users
  • Last but not least that, for mobile apps service market is among the one trending app but not yet seems to acquire considerable market share. Having 10,000 + downloads so far https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.servicemarket.app
