We’re looking forward to working with lots of more companies and offering and launching more products in 2020.

Altrincham FC ⚽️

Motorly is very proud that we are an official sponsor of Altrincham FC. We love to support local businesses, as we are especially proud to be an Altrincham based company. It’s been great to get involved with the local football team and even go to a few games to show our support too. We had a great team day out watching them beat Farsley Celtic 3-1 at home!

There are many different football fans here at motorly, there’s a mixture of Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Altrincham FC fans – so it can get quite competitive as you would imagine! But we’re very proud to support Altrincham FC as a business. They had a great run in the Emirates FA Cup this year – Up The Robins! #TheRobins #AltyFC ⚽️?

Social media ?

We have recently celebrated hitting over 2,000 likes on Facebook ?

Instagram is just behind with over 700 followers and on Twitter over 100 followers. We’re constantly populating all of our social media pages with interesting, relevant yet fun content featuring motoring tips & tricks. We do this through a range of organic posts, quizzes, competitions, advertisements and boosted posts.

We’re very happy with our current festive profile picture across our social media platforms, we’ve embraced the time of year and introduced a Santa hat on to our motorly logo.

Email marketing ?

With over 40,000 contacts in our database we email them once a week to invite them to enjoy great offers, deals, competitions, tips & tricks. In November of 2019, we sent over 150,000 emails! ?

Currently we are using the all-in-one email marketing platform Mailchimp to deliver our emails. However, we are looking to change this provider early into the New Year of 2020.

Team news ?

The team went to Chester Races on Friday the 13th of September. Arguably, not the best day to place your bets! However, we all had a great day out together as a team in the sun and even won a quid or two. Thanks again Sir Maximillion ?

In October, we hit up Flight Club in Manchester for some darts and drinks. This was a very different day for the motorly team, and some were much better at darts than others! Another great day out for the team to celebrate our shared successes ?

It’s been a great first year for us here at motorly – keep an eye out for us in the future as we expand and launch more and more products to benefit our customers in 2020 ???
