Promote your shop
ACT and Cytech offers cycle retailers a number of ways to increase promotion of their stores.
Display Cytech certificates
It sounds obvious but many Cytech accredited stores either do not display certificates or hide them away where customers cannot see them.
To get maximum benefit from your investment in Cytech display certificates behind the sales counter or elsewhere on the shop floor. Customers can recognise that you have invested in people and service and you can refer to them when talking about the service you offer. Plus of course staff feel proud to see their achievement on show.

Display the Cytech logo
Why not add the Cytech logo to your website, marketing literature, advertising or company vehicle? To display the Cytech logo you must have at least one member of staff with a Cytech Technical Two qualification or higher.
Improve your listing in the national bike shop database
ACT's database of UK cycle shops is one of the best in the industry and is accessible to over 200,000 people every month. All shops are included, members and non-members.
To make even more of your listing you can create additional features to promote your shop, including Cytech accredited staff. This service is free to ACT members and costs from as little as £50 for other retailers.

Your Yellow Pages advert will also promote if you have Cytech accredited staff.
