You've looked over the budget for next year and feel your heart sink—profits are a lot slimmer than you'd hoped. You might have to let some employees go in the very near future, or you might have to give salary cuts to yourself and other workers. 

But don't despair; financial salvation for your restaurant or hotel can come from many unexpected places, one of which is a valet company. Yes, it's an investment upfront, but the return on that investment can well exceed anyone's monetary expectations. 

Unparalleled Parking, a Twin Cities Valet Company, explains below how paying for our valet parking services can actually lead to more money in your pocket.

Transportation Companies Work as an Atmospheric Tool

If that sounds too much like the title of an academic paper, hear us out: valet parking services lend an air of class and luxury to your guests' hotel or restaurant experience. 

They change your business's vibe. Suddenly, your facility is transformed from just "any old place" to "the high-class venue with parking services;" the temptation of such a luxurious experience is bound to bring guests running.

Aside from lending an air of luxury to your business's services, how else can valet services make you money?

They Foster Relaxation

The last thing any jet-lagged traveler wants to do is figure out parking in an unfamiliar city. Likewise, the last thing that your diners want is to fight for a space in the crowded Minneapolis streets. After all, they're at your establishment for a relaxing night to themselves! 

A valet parking service serves as a potential relaxing draw for the service-seeking customer, a draw that sets your establishment apart from others like it.

They Serve as a Friendly Face

Big cities can be quite lonely, especially for travelers spending time away from their families. A friendly valet parking service like Unparalleled Parking will help mitigate this loneliness with cheerful and personable service. When a return trip undoubtedly happens, that traveler will be more likely to select your hotel or restaurant in the future.

They Offer Undeniable Convenience

Your guests can arrive at a venue, drop their keys into experienced hands, take a ticket, and get through the front door in a jiffy. The same is true on the way out. Where they might otherwise have to walk in darkness, searching for their car in a parking lot, all they have to do now is wait a few minutes as their vehicle is brought directly to them. 

Our team will make sure the engine is running and the temperature inside is warmed in the winter or cooled in the summer so they can drive away with ease.

They Enhance Security

If your patrons are drinking or exhausted from their travels, parking can quickly get messy—read: costly. Vehicles also are safer when watched over by valet attendants. Standard parking opens your guest's car to potential vandalism, theft, and accidental damage. 

Our experienced drivers can safely navigate the roads and designated parking areas to ensure their vehicle returns in perfect condition.

They Keep Traffic Flowing

Events in downtown Minneapolis sometimes create quite the traffic jam. Everyone wants to be at the same concert, sports game, or bar all at one time. It can take hours just to move a few feet in these types of conditions. 

However, when establishments like yours ease the traffic flow in and around their building with the help of valet parking gurus and their equipment (cones, radios, etc.), it'll help your business stay moving in busier traffic times, even normal rush hour. 

Valet parking also expands the capacity of a typical parking lot to serve more patrons so you can maximize parking spaces and profits. 

They Provide Unforgettable Pampering

Guests associate valet parking with an upscale image. It's a treat to be treated well and doted on by valets who care to create a positive experience. The pampered feeling is further related by courteous, prompt attention and offering total VIP treatment they won't forget! 

Searching for the Best Valet Parking Services in the Twin Cities?

You've found it! At Unparalleled Parking, we specialize in friendly yet efficient service that will leave your guests stress-free and smiling—and you, of course, with more money in your pocket.

<![CDATA[Can You Trust Your Valet Service?]]>https://www.unparalleledparking.com/About-Us/Blog/entryid/187/can-you-trust-your-valet-serviceAt Unparalleled Parking, we understand if you have reservations about valet parking services. After all, you’re leaving the keys to one of the most valuable investments you’ll ever own in the hands of a stranger!

However, we’re also here to reassure you that there’s nothing to fear when using our Minneapolis valet services. After all, we wouldn’t have been a transportation company for over a decade if we’d given anything but honest, straightforward service. 

Below, we discuss a few common fears about using valet services and then put them to rest because you will know what to expect. You have nothing to feel nervous about when you hire Unparalleled Parking!

Addressing Common Fears About Minneapolis Valet Services

If you’re nervous about contacting a private event valet company, that’s okay! It can be a little nerve-wracking to put your business’s reputation or your guests’ satisfaction in the hands of a company you don’t know. 

We recommend vetting the reviews of the valet company in question before you hire. This can give you a good idea of the quality of service they will provide and hopefully rid you of some of your fears. 

However, even after extensive research, you might still be left with some anxieties.

What if the Valet Company I Hire Has Unscrupulous Staff? 

You’ll never need to worry about this when you work with Unparalleled Parking. All of our drivers undergo an extensive background check before employment. We only hire the best, most hardworking, and talented staff in the business. 

What if the Company Is Not Careful With Their Driving? 

As stated above, we’re dedicated to supplying our clientele with only the best service; we can’t do that with sloppy driving. As stated above, we only hire the best staff in the industry. Anything otherwise would fall below our standards.

What if the Company Gives My Guests the Wrong Vibe? 

With Unparalleled Parking on your side, your event or business can give off any sort of vibe you want. Are you looking for more of a formal air? Our drivers will wear your business’s uniform. 

For a more relaxed yet still professional vibe, we can show up in polos with our logo. We go above and beyond what you might expect from your valet service, all to give your guests the experience that you intend through customization that leaves a lasting impression

The Foundation Behind Our Valet Drivers

I (Chris Forest) founded Unparalleled Parking in 2008, bringing management expertise to a startup company that I dedicated to integrity, strength of character, and sound business principles. I believed that quality would follow quality. 

Service is not simply complementary to the task being performed. Valet drivers are hired based on the quality of service. In this way, a valet company’s success revolves around the quality of each valet driver’s service. And it’s why Unparalleled Parking hires the best.

In other words, valet drivers of the highest quality would be attracted to work at the valet company with the utmost quality. The rest was history.

Valet Drivers With Optimal Support

Every valet driver relies on equipment and resources to do the job well. Unparalleled Parking drivers utilize a combination of top-of-the-line radios, GPS mapping, key boxes, podiums, and chauffeur vehicles to make a seamless and positive experience for clients. 

Whether you host a private party and want to create a lasting memory or run a business in the city, Unparalleled Parking can provide the transportation services you need to impress.

In addition to equipment that helps our valet drivers get the job done efficiently and professionally, every event is supported by a suited valet team manager. The manager ensures team performance by being on-site at all times and having an in-depth understanding of event venue logistics and needs. 

That way, our operations are guaranteed to reflect the client in every interaction, from opening the door curbside with a smile to speedy vehicle delivery for ultimate patron convenience. 

Our Valet Service Spans the Twin Cities

Unlike other valet services limited to St. Paul, Minneapolis, or only certain surrounding areas, Unparalleled Parking can provide transportation and valet parking to cities and the surrounding metro areas

We make it easy to hire a valet driver with a single call for a last-minute gig, party, or other event. With enough staff to take care of up to 2,500 guests, you don’t need to shop around for a better transportation option!

Ready to Talk to a Valet Company? Contact Unparalleled Parking Today

We can’t speak for the integrity of all Twin Cities valet services, but we’ve certainly spoken for ours. Through hard work and dedication to the business, we have over a decade of experience you can trust! 

Reach out online or give us a call today at 651-300-1515 to get started planning services for your event or business.

When it comes to valet parking, think seven seconds. That's the amount of time we have to help you make the first impression as soon as your guests exit their vehicle. 

In seven seconds, we can make a positive first impression and a lasting one with each person who attends your event or enters your business. This is the value of valet parking

Our attendants can make everybody in the vehicle feel right at home with a warm smile and efficient service. We are dedicated to creating a positive impression on your guests.

It's All About Quality of Service

Our valet company has a reputation for being a top-notch parking service that provides a unique experience for all drivers and their passengers. We work with you to go over every detail to make your event memorable. 

No matter what type of event you have coming up, our valet service will be the added touch you're looking for. We want you and your guests to be 100% satisfied with every aspect of our service from when they arrive until they leave. 

When Your Guests First Pull Up

Nothing beats the thrill of being pleasantly surprised when guests pull up and a valet attendant is waiting to take their car. When they pull up, we eagerly go to their door, open it, and welcome them to the event. 

We then take their car and carefully park it in the nearest available spot. We keep the line moving efficiently so that no car has to wait. Your guests receive fast, friendly service without any hassle. 

When Your Guests Leave

Our valet attendants stay alert at all times so that we can be ready when it's time for your guests to leave. As soon as they give us a ticket, we find the car, bring it back in excellent shape, and then usher your guests back into the seats. We thank them for coming and then wish them a good evening. The first and the last thing they experience is a warm smile and a friendly handshake. 

Your Guests Know their Vehicles are Safe

The last thing you want your guests worrying about is the safety of their vehicles, and while most parking areas have security cameras on site, this isn't always the case. Valet parking adds an extra security step because an attendant is physically on-site and can keep a closer eye on guests' vehicles, creating a deterrent if criminals are planning malicious behavior or break-ins. 

We know how stressful it can be to have your vehicle broken into or stolen, and by leaving them in the care of our staff, your guests can stay focused on your event and not on whether their vehicle is a target for theft or vandalism.

It Removes Accessibility Worries

Let's face it: parking in downtown Minneapolis is a nightmare, and if your business is located there, it can create a massive headache for your guests trying to find an open spot. Valet services are a fantastic solution because we offer an easy alternative that removes the stress of locating an open parking space. 

Your guests can simply pull up, be given a ticket, and move on with their experience, removing the worry of navigating the complex traffic and having them looking forward to their next visit to your property because they know parking won't be an issue.

Luxury Is a Priority

There are many luxuries in this world, and having someone else park your vehicle is included in the list. Valet parking can be seen as a status symbol, and while it's one of the smaller micro luxuries you can provide your guests, it can be an unexpected bonus to your event and help set their mood for the rest of the experience. 

Our focus is on providing the best service in the business, and through our long-standing principles and custom personal touches, we will make each guest feel like a VIP! 

Unparalleled Parking Will Take Care of Your Guests

Unparalleled Parking offers high-end valet parking services for all types of events in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. We carefully review every detail of your event, including putting together all the equipment, attendants, and parking arrangements. When your big day arrives, we'll be ready to park every single guest. 

We offer affordable rates and friendly service that is second to none in Minneapolis. To schedule a date, contact us at 651-300-1515 or message us online today.

Without the ticket, it becomes a bit more challenging to verify which vehicle belongs to you (challenging, but not impossible). The problem, however, doesn’t begin when you lose your ticket. The real problem starts when someone else finds your ticket, picks it up, and claims your car. Therefore, all someone has to do is present the ticket, pay for the parking, get in the car, and drive away. Below are some steps you can take to secure your car just in case you lose your parking claim ticket.

Your valet parking claims ticket is the insurance you have that you - and only you - will be getting in your car and driving home tonight. Without the ticket, it becomes a bit more challenging to verify which vehicle belongs to you (challenging, but not impossible). The problem, however, doesn't begin when you lose your ticket. 

The real problem starts when someone else finds your ticket, picks it up, and claims your car. Therefore, all someone has to do is present the ticket, pay for the parking, get in the car, and drive away. Below are some steps to secure your vehicle just in case you lose your parking claim ticket. 

Add an Extra Layer of Security

Our valet team is prepared to handle any additional requests you may have when you pull up to the valet station. For instance, you can add an extra layer of security to verify that a vehicle belongs to you. 

An example would be to write a codeword on a business card and attach it to your car keys. Just inform our attendant that there is a codeword connected to your keys. This way, potential thieves have to go through multiple layers of security to claim the car. 

What's in the Glove Compartment?

One way to verify that a car belongs to you is to put something in the glove compartment (that is NOT valuable) that only you would know about. It could be a photo of yourself or a relic of your favorite sports team. Whatever it is, the item should leave no doubt that the car belongs to you. You can also place the item under the seat or in the car's trunk. 

If you have your registration and insurance information in the vehicle, you can also use that information to back up your identity. 

Revisit Your Locations

If the ticket wasn't secure in a pocket or purse, it could have fallen out as you moved around the location, but this means there's a good chance it's still inside the facility. Take your time and go back and check every place you've been by retracing your steps, using extra caution as you scan floors and check shelves or crevices where it may have landed. 

Contact Building Security

There's also a chance that someone may have picked it up and reported it to the lost and found. You should call security or go to the front desk/security desk to see if the ticket has been turned in. Security may also be able to help you confirm that the vehicle in question does indeed belong to you via security cameras or from check-in procedures. 

Prevent the Loss in the First Place

You should treat a valet ticket like it's money. The second a valet attendant hands the ticket to you, you need to decide where the safest place is to put it. 

In most cases, the most reliable place is in your wallet that you slide into your inside jacket pocket or pocketbook (if you plan to carry one all night). A possible secure location would be in the pocket of an overcoat that the inside attendant will hang up for you. 

That way, the ticket stays in one place the entire night. Wherever you decide to put the valet ticket, you need to check up on it at least a couple of times per night and always make sure you have it before leaving the dinner table or bar.

<![CDATA[Hosting a Charity Event? Hire a Valet Parking Service]]>https://www.unparalleledparking.com/About-Us/Blog/entryid/154/hosting-a-charity-event-hire-a-valet-parking-serviceAre you hosting a charity event in the Twin Cities metro area? Let Unparalleled Parking help you with your event by providing exceptional, high-end valet parking services for all your honored guests. Below, we’ll cover a few details that will help make your valet parking—and your event—successful.

]]>
Any business, from a large corporation to a small startup, can make a difference and gain public brand awareness through a charity event. It shows an authentic desire to connect with the community and a passion that goes beyond your mission statement. 

But charity event planning takes a considerable amount of time, even more if you've never run any fundraiser. If you find yourself in that position, don't be discouraged or talk yourself out of taking the next step. Instead, take our advice to focus your charity event planning efforts.

Unparalleled Parking is here to help you with your event by providing exceptional, high-end valet parking services for all your honored guests. Let's go over the details that will help make your charity event and valet parking successful!

What Can You Expect with Valet Service?

Your event is extremely important, which means ensuring your guests are well cared for and handled professionally. Charity events are large-scale, and working with a valet company removes parking stress, which will help make your guests happier and can lead to higher contributions for your event.

Parking is the last thing you need to worry about, and we excel at streamlining your parking system to leave your guests feeling like VIPs and let you stay focused on all the other tasks that need to be completed.

Valet services are experts in creating upscale environments, which goes hand in hand with making a statement through branding. Customization can make all the difference, and our experienced valets will create a solution that reflects your theme to help convey the message you're trying to send to your guests.

10 Steps to Charity Event Planning Success

You need to incorporate solid charity event planning to make your business's time, effort, and budget worth it. As you read through this guide, jot down notes to strengthen your initial proposal when you bring it up in a board meeting or with your close-knit office crew.

Charity event planning starts with one great idea that drives you to make a difference through your company. Use these steps as an outline for success:

1. Define a Purpose

Fundraising at a charity event is always a main focus. However, you may also wish to gain publicity and reach out to a new network. Defining your purpose encompasses all the purposes and how you plan to accomplish each.

2. Set a Goal

Raising money is key, but defining how much money is a realistic challenge. If the money is going toward a project, will it be able to fund the project completely? Setting a goal during your charity event planning unites your fundraising materials. It can also be beneficial to inform donors what their hard-earned money is going toward.

3. Calculate a Budget

List all expenses required to host and run the event. Include staff, space, catering, marketing, entertainment, transportation, decorations, utilities, and thank you cards or gifts.

4. Choose Leaders

Consider your team member strengths and divide employees and volunteers into committees so the details don't become overwhelming. You can't handle charity event planning all on your shoulders.

5. Study Your Target Audience

Who is most likely to attend? Who is most likely to give? Who has the most reason to care? You must utilize these three questions to find a cross-section of people to invite. They are your target audience.

6. Consider the Details

Venue, food, dress attire, staff, itinerary, and entertainment represent a piece of the charity event planning puzzle.

7. Develop a Route of Sale 

Brainstorm about what level of donations (and perks) might be available, how tickets will be sold and delivered, and how to organize the guest list as it grows. Also, you might consider how to impact sales if the guest list does not grow fast enough.

8. Market

Like your own service or product, a fundraising event needs marketing. How do you convince supporters to donate time and money by attending? Which platforms online and through traditional means will you use to get the word out?

9. Assign Roles

Mentally walk through how the night will proceed. If any roles are yet to be filled, find people suitable for the positions to ensure everything goes smoothly. Establish a chain of command in case of emergency or problems arising during the event.

10. Send Thank You Notes

After the event, remember to send personalized thank you notes to all those who attended, donated, volunteered, and participated in any way with the fundraiser. Expressing thanks will encourage those people to participate again if you run another event.

These ten steps are not rigid. Your fundraiser may require hammering out a few other charity event planning details. That's why you need a team to help you carry out your ultimate purpose.

Why Hire a Valet Company for Your Event?

Convenience and ease are just two reasons to hire a valet service; they can bring in more profit for your business simply from courtesy and presentation alone because your guests are relaxed and ready to participate. The services also show you care about your attendees and are a way to thank you for taking the time to join in your cause. 

A formal and professional feeling comes with valet services, and our drivers can customize their attire and approach depending on the impact you're trying to make on attendees.

Planning Valet Parking for Charity Events

Are you hosting a charity event in the Twin Cities metro area? Someone in your planning committee may be designated to contact us and schedule valet service. If so, we will sit down with this point of contact to go over the big event's details. 

Planning is the most crucial part of a valet parking service!

It usually involves a lot of elements, such as:

Location

Where your event is going to take place matters, so have your location picked out in advance to get a more accurate price event quote

Parking Area Size and Dimensions

You need to know how many parking spaces are available near the location and to ensure there is space for the valet area close to the entrance to ensure a smooth parking experience. 

Date, Time, and Duration of Service

Are you expecting your guests to show up simultaneously, or will it be at their leisure?  You will need enough valets to account for the entirety of the event, so have the duration, date, and time planned.

Valet Options

Understand your preferences, like what you want the drivers to wear, the service you expect, and how you want your guests to be greeted.

Transportation Options

Will some guests be arriving in groups in buses or vans? Do guests need to be picked up? Will there be unique vehicles like motorcycles or larger vehicles to accommodate?

Safety and Security

You want every aspect of your guest's experience to be safe, so going over procedures and precautions with your valet provider can help reduce risks of accidents or theft.

Weather Considerations

While Minnesota weather is never predictable, it's good to have planning in place so it can succeed, even if your event falls on a day predicting storms.

Special Needs or Requests

Are there unique requests that need to be complied with? Guests that may need additional assistance? Or specific ways the parking area needs to be navigated?

Pricing and Packages

Be sure to know your budget so you can find a plan that works for your event.

Contracts and Agreements

Having a thorough understanding of any requirements or agreements for you and the valet company for a successful event

We encourage you to work out all of these details as soon as possible so that we can do our part to get everything ready. 

We also encourage you to reserve your valet parking for at least six to twelve months in advance. This allows everyone to properly plan for your special event.

Transportation Services

In addition to valet parking services, we also offer transportation services to and from the event. If you have special guests or honorees attending the event, we can pick them up and transport them to any destination, including the event.

Transportation services we offer include:

  • Limousines
  • SUVs
  • Luxury vehicles
  • Buses & vans

All of our vehicles are well-maintained, safe, and high-end. Our drivers are well-trained, certified, and fully insured. You can feel confident that your guests will be picked up and dropped off in style. 

Safety & Security

Our top priority is always preserving the safety and security of your vehicles. Therefore, we take extra measures to ensure that all parties involved do their part to mitigate any risks associated with valet parking service. 

What are some areas we cover?

  • Insurance and damage to vehicles
  • The safety of the property and parking area
  • Lighting options
  • Procedures for collecting and handing out keys
  • Ticketing for guests
  • Ensuring a safe and spacious entryway and exit
  • City codes and regulations

All of these are important considerations in making sure = your event is as safe as it is enjoyable.

Set an Amazing First Impression Dependable

You've begun considering event space and a charity event planning itinerary, but have you considered how guests will be welcomed? The first impression sets the tone for your evening, so you should choose a team of hosts to represent you at or before guests reach the entrance.

Unparalleled Parking attendants can run a smooth car check operation and utilize the available parking lots to their fullest. This alleviates guest concerns about finding parking or having a long walk through questionable weather. In addition, valet services establish a level of luxury from the moment an attendant opens the car door and greets each individual with a smile.

At Unparalleled Parking, we help event planners set up and maintain a smooth valet service their guests will love. Our experienced team can handle your parking needs, regardless of your charity event's size.

We recommend hiring Unparalleled Parking to provide valet parking for your guests or clients. Valet Parking leaves a lasting impression and demonstrates that you take your company-client relationships seriously. We provide some clear benefits of offering valet service below.

Are you looking for a way to take your customer service to the next level? Whether you are running a high-end dining venue or want to offer extra support for your hospital patients, we recommend hiring Unparalleled Parking to provide valet parking for your guests or clients. 

Valet Parking leaves a lasting impression and demonstrates that you take your company-client relationships seriously. Don’t let these clear benefits of valet parking put your competitors ahead of your business!

Make a First Impression

Companies that get the best reviews from customers are the ones who go above and beyond to provide that added touch to their service – not the ones who do what is expected. 

If you provide a parking lot, they will come. 

If you offer a valet service, they will return time and again. 

We can help you deliver a valet service for your event or your facility that your guests will appreciate! We can tailor it to suit your specific needs. 

A Smart, Efficient Solution

The most effective method for getting clients in and out of your business is a valet service. They will appreciate stepping from the car through the door in only a few steps. Improved efficiency in customer traffic, both inside your building and out in the parking lot, can put more customers in your business and increase your revenue. 

Our valet service speeds up the parking process and ensures every car has a parking space without customers driving all over the parking lot to find one. 

Portable Parking Equipment Gives You Flexibility

Unparalleled Parking can customize both the functionality and the parking scheme of our valet service at your facility. We can position the podium according to your exact specifications. We can set up the parking spaces to accommodate your entire guest list.  

Our valet podiums can hold over 50 keys in one setting, and we can provide the equipment you need for the parking area. 

Courtesy Goes a Long Way

Valet parking doesn’t happen everywhere. Most people only experience the thrill of it no more than once or twice a year. Offering this service will separate your hospitality company from the pack. 

Since valet service is considered a courtesy, you will gain loyalty from your client base by providing it. Valet is always a pleasant surprise to those who benefit from it most: your customers. 

Test it on a day when you have the most traffic coming through the doors of your business. You’ll instantly notice a difference. 

So will your customers!

Manage Your Parking Lot

If your company provides a sizable parking facility for your guests, you are more likely to manage where everyone parks by hiring our valet service. We can sit down with you to establish VIP, primary, and secondary parking areas and help you determine traffic flow in your setting. 

You’ll only understand the value of a professional valet parking service when you observe firsthand how it benefits your hospitality company. 

Handle Guest’ Parking Concerns 

After ages spent traveling, parking their cars is the last thing on your guests’ minds. All they want to do is get to their destination.

When you hire valet parking services, your customers will be able to roll up to your entrance, get out of their vehicles, and do just that. Guests and visitors seeking valet parking will be repeat customers because they can be confident that if they stay at your hotel, they won’t have to worry about parking.

Individuals with more expensive vehicles will rest assured knowing their assets are protected with parking valet services.

Improve Your Customer Service Standards 

Properties with a parking service send the message that they truly care about the quality of their guests' time there. Aside from making them feel taken care of, it can have a positive impact on future profits.

Word of mouth is a great way to stir up new business, and the right valet company can lead to positive reviews for your property. If the parking situation is stressful, then certain guests may choose to only frequent locations that offer the convenience of valet parking.

Increase Capacity

You can park more guests by increasing the capacity of your garage by up to 15% with valet services. By using valet parking services, you can maximize space with parking and make more money with your parking garage.

Valet service providers know many tips and tricks for parking more cars in less space, including stacking cars and parking cars in non-parking spaces.

Gain Control Over Your Parking Lot

By investing in valet services, you will be able to exercise more control over your parking lot. For instance, you can separate long-term stays from overnight stays. You can also clean and shovel the lot with ease during the snowy winter months.

You can organize your lot more efficiently, and your guests will appreciate your organization.

Reduce Accidents in Parking Areas 

By restricting access to your parking lot, you can cut down on accidents during parking. Accidents can happen at any time, but with expert drivers, they are less likely to be frequent occurrences. You can also prevent guests from being hit by cars in your lot by using valet parking services.

Create a Safer Environment for all Guests 

With restricted access to the garage, your guests will not have to worry about their car being stolen. You can also cut down on robberies among guests, including stealing from cars. Your guests will appreciate your effort to ensure a safe and efficient parking experience.

Is a Sensitive Gesture

Good luck finding parking in Minneapolis before rush hour without a transportation company to help. Crowded parking ramps and busy streets really amp up your potential customers’ stress levels. Taking care of one of the most stressful parts of dining out or traveling is one of the kindest things you can do for your clientele.

Suggests a High-Class Experience

While any establishment can benefit from hiring a valet parking service, under the right circumstances, doing so evokes a high-class air and raises your guests’ expectations of your business. 

It shows you’re sensitive to the customers’ needs. This is a good thing—when you sail over those high expectations, it’s even more impressive and even more likely to make you stand out.

<![CDATA[The Benefits of VIP Valet Parking]]>https://www.unparalleledparking.com/About-Us/Blog/entryid/38/the-benefits-of-vip-valet-parkingIn its first iterations, valet parking was a luxury known to few. Being greeted with premium car service always felt like VIP valet parking. With urban sprawl, crowded cities, and a faster way of life, valet parking is almost an expectation. 

In certain cities, it may even be a necessity to accommodate guest traffic. Because of this, it has become a standard in dining, entertainment, and even private events.

But guests shouldn’t be made to feel standard. Not just any valet parking or guest greeting service will do. Your guests deserve the VIP treatment, and VIP valet parking is a great start to building loyalty and repeat business success.

Benefits of VIP Valet Parking

Certain valet parking companies have raised the bar once again, reclaiming the luxury appeal of valet with new and improved services. The following are just some of the benefits of VIP valet parking and why you should consider partnering with a valet.

  • Establishes an immediate and positive guest interaction.
  • Represents the quality and professionalism of your establishment.
  • Keeps traffic incoming.
  • Maximizes the personalized leisure experience of guests.
  • Reduces and deters crime.
  • Delivers a flawless party presentation.
  • Increases safety, security, and enjoyment of guests.
  • Monitors the exterior of your establishment.
  • Provides feedback for guest inquiries.
  • Offers extra services like car detailing.
  • Adds efficiency to increase your parking capacity.
  • Helps direct and control vehicle traffic.
  • Coordinates transportation needs.
  • Retrieves vehicles quickly.

In addition to these smooth mechanics, valet parking remains a VIP experience because of the details. Greeting guests with a smile, offering advice or giving directions, and handing off the guest into the venue are all aspects of a strong customer service equation. No company can achieve greatness without being available and involved with customers at this human level.

Here’s How Valet Parking Services Help You Stand Out

Unparalleled Parking is a Twin Cities-based VIP valet parking company with firm ties in the community. We understand the pulse of the local urban life and what it means to keep your business running smoothly. Every guest of yours is our priority from first to last impression. 

That’s why Unparalleled Parking hires only the best drivers and attendants via a strict background and application process. All drivers are trustworthy, experienced, and highly trained to operate at the performance level you expect and deserve.

Hiring a valet parking service is one way to set yourself apart from your peers, and a VIP valet parking service does the job even better.

An Understanding that the Details Matter 

While low-caliber valet parking services might just see your event or business as “just another job,” VIP valet parking services know that the details truly matter.

Service with a smile, an exchange of small talk if desired, dressing to impress – all of these set the tone for a truly magical experience for your guests.

Flexible Valet Parking Services 

Top-notch valet companies will meld seamlessly into your event or business’s vibe and aesthetic. No matter how you’d like your guests to be served, a VIP valet company always sails over any bar set.

A Culture of Professionalism 

In our cutthroat economy, a professional air is everything. Only VIP valet parking services have the high standards your event or business needs to stand out.

Businesses that Benefit from Valet

Valet parking services offer benefits for many types of businesses in the Twin Cities area, especially hotels, hospitals, restaurants, and private companies.

Hotels 

Your hotel can benefit from valet services because they provide a parking solution that guests crave. People frequent hotels for work or vacation, and both occasions require convenient access to parking. You can relieve the stress for your guests by allowing the option for valet parking.

Some guests even select hotels based on parking accessibility, and street parking at certain locations is challenging. Therefore, offering valet services can boost your hotel business!

Hospitals 

In the event of a medical emergency, it is important to create a space for visitors to park efficiently and quickly. Hospital visits are simplified with valet parking services.

Restaurants 

Restaurants use valet services to enhance business by offering guests a simple parking solution. People attend restaurants for various reasons and occasions, and valet services can ensure repeat business.

Private Businesses 

Private businesses can make a positive impression with the right valet service provider. Your business is a source of pride, and the correct valet service renders a great first impression for employees and visitors.

Events that Benefit from Valet Parking  

The right valet parking service can accommodate the tone and mood of your event, from low-key fun to dressy extravagance.

Wedding Valet 

Your wedding has taken much time and effort to plan, so why not ensure parking is done right? A professional valet company can take care of your guests so they can enjoy the wedding celebration without the hassle of finding a parking spot.

Corporate Valet 

Planning a corporate event requires a high level of professionalism for your attendees. By leaving parking in the hands of a reputable valet company, you can ensure your corporate event attendees have a stress-free parking experience.

Fundraiser Valet 

Motivate your guests to give by creating a high-class, easy parking experience. By hiring professional valet services to take care of your fundraiser event, you can ensure a memorable experience for everyone who attends.

Private Parties 

Turn your private party up a notch with a reputable valet service company. Your guests will note the ease of parking and organization of your party.

When you work with our team at Unparalleled Parking, it’s easy to add a touch of class to your private party, regardless of the size or occasion!

Any of these events can also be customized, from valet driver attire to greetings, transportation, and complimentary guest services. With VIP valet parking, you and your guests will feel like celebrities walking the red carpet.

<![CDATA[How to Customize Your Valet Services to Your Event]]>https://www.unparalleledparking.com/About-Us/Blog/entryid/178/how-to-customize-your-valet-services-to-your-eventAt Unparalleled Parking, we pride ourselves on being a fully comprehensive, personalized Twin Cities valet service. No matter the event—weddings, corporate bashes, conventions, you name it—we can and will fully customize our service to fit your individual needs. You’ll be hard-passed to find such a responsive and client-focused valet parking service, but how do you take full advantage of everything we have to offer at Unparalleled Parking?

First impressions are everything, and if you're planning an event with valet services, you need a company that can accommodate your needs and offer customized solutions. 

The smallest details can make the difference, and here are just a few ways Unparalleled Parking can customize your valet services to give your guests an unforgettable experience.

Why Choose Unparalleled Parking for Your Event?

At Unparalleled Parking, we pride ourselves on being a fully comprehensive, personalized Twin Cities valet service. No matter the event – weddings, corporate bashes, conventions, you name it – we can and will fully customize our service to fit your individual needs. You’ll be hard-passed to find a more responsive and client-focused valet parking service in Minneapolis!

Take full advantage of everything we have to offer at Unparalleled Parking!

We’ll Walk You Through All Your Customization Options

After you’ve scheduled your event with our transportation company, we’ll pay your venue a visit and scope out the landscape. 

We’ll then ask you several questions to find out your preferences, such as:

  • How you want guests to be greeted
  • What you want our drivers to wear
  • How you’d like us to handle parking 
  • The budget we’re accommodating
  • Examples of the service you’re expecting
  • Types of vehicles you’re looking for
  • How we can make the event memorable!

How Do You Want Guests to Be Greeted?

What’s the vibe you want for your event: classy and refined or warm and cheery? Perhaps a bit of both? As our drivers are the first impression your guests will have of your event, we want to make sure we get that impression right. 

We’ll change the way our drivers handle your guests depending on what you want to get out of your valet experience.

What Would You Like Our Drivers to Wear?

Again, when you hire a valet service, you hire a company that sets the atmosphere and mood of your guests. After all, a polo shirt and khakis send a very different message than formalwear! 

Because both of these options can be more appropriate than the other in certain circumstances, we always ask our customers how they’d like our drivers to dress for the event. You can trust that we'll always look the part regardless of the vibe you’re going for.

How Would You Like Us to Handle Parking? 

At our first meeting, we’ll speak with you about parking specifications. We’ll ask where the parking lot is in relation to the event, of course, but we’ll also ask if we need to consider things such as VIP parking. 

We’ll also help you to plan if you will need additional services, such as greeters, traffic directors, or planners (all of which we provide). We also can print parking tickets customized to reflect your event’s specifications.

What Type of Budget Should We Accommodate? 

Events can be costly, and it is possible that you have a budget in mind for what you can afford to spend for valet services. We work with a variety of budgets, so feel free to disclose your ideal investment for the valet service. 

We provide many customizations depending on the nature of your event, and you can skip the add-ons for a more affordable option.

What’s An Example of How We Can Handle Your Event?  

If you are planning an event such as a holiday party or a wedding, you may want us to go into detail about how we have handled valet service for events of this nature in the past. 

If you are planning an unusual event, we are happy to answer any questions you may have about strategies to ensure your event has easy and organized parking.

What Vehicles Would You Like for Increased Security Concerns?

It is possible that you are planning an event where there will be luxury vehicles that need to be parked. Even if the vehicle is not a luxury one, guests will want to make sure that their vehicle is safe from theft or vandalism. 

Our valet service will lock the doors and secure the vehicle for the duration of the event. We have a superior tracking system and additional valet parking technology to ensure the vehicle’s keys are safe and easily located. 

There are also added layers of security that can be implemented for the safety of your guests’ vehicles, such as an attendant to watch over the parking lot while the event is taking place.

How Can We Make Your Event Memorable?

Attending events can be stressful due to the pre-planning of parking. Guests have to budget for a parking garage or drive down nearby streets to find parking. By using a valet service, your guests can avoid the hassle of parking and focus on the event itself.

One notable aspect of our valet services is that we can make each event special with our excellent customer service. We go to great lengths to ensure that each guest is handled with care. 

Our customers have described their valet service experience as luxurious, and this is because our team works hard for each guest. 

How Can We Make the Parking Experience Safer? 

The last thing you need to worry about are any incidents in the parking lot. Our valets understand their role, and we continuously work to make our process more efficient, keeping the flow of traffic moving. We will work with you to make sure there's adequate spacing for vehicles and deliver perfect execution through the entirety of the event.

What Can We Do To Reduce Guest Confusion? 

If you're planning a large-scale event, having clear directions for your guests lets them know where to go and reduces the risk of frustration, helping to enhance their experience. Our team can help you plan signage and make sure any parking permits are in place so you can stay focused on the event and create a memorable and lasting impression.

Get the Best Private Event Valet Company in the Twin Cities 

We’d be privileged to help your next private event go off without a hitch, and we’d be overjoyed to watch it become everything you’ve ever wanted it to be. For over a decade, we have been a premier valet company in Minneapolis and are happy to assist you with any event, from weddings to corporate functions.
