<p>Just some thoughts about what is happing in our business:</p>
<p>There is a requirement by some OEMs to force their dealers to use a limited number of Certified Web Site Providers. There is a major OEM that is now doing this. Reasoning is that these 6 vendors make up 85% of current providers for their OEM Dealers.</p>
<p>Every retail market is different. To force OEM dealers to choose between only 6 web site providers, that not only work with our other OEM dealers, but our competitors as well, limits our marketing and strategies at our local level. Also, these companies are capturing all our data and customer usage information to do what they want with. </p>
<p>What can they do with this data, some examples of companies using dealer data:</p>
<p>Recently, I was told by an Third Party Vendor representative that they have a marketing program that uses data from all their sources , including their dealer web site products, to market new car shoppers. So people going to a dealer web site could be marketed to by a different dealer using this program. </p>
<p>I understand that there was a Third Party Vendor that was used dealer data and made some sort of deal with independent large Dealer Group. Other vendors in the past were using dealer data too for other products and services.</p>
<p>Seem to me, by forcing OEM dealers to use these 6 companies, we are increasing the value of these companies and helping them to take over the market, causing a lot of other great web site companies out of business. These 6 companies will have all the data from these dealers and other OEM dealers to use and sell the way they want.</p>
<p>I think there is a danger in putting all our digital customer information and behavior in the hands of a small number of non-exclusive vendors. These companies are digital information companies, not really web site vendors.</p>
<p>Our advertising is what drives people to our web site and to some extent, the OEM’s web site. It just doesn’t seem right to have to use one of these vendors or be penalized by not getting Co-Op, receiving OEM leads or other limitations.</p>
<p>Due to the strict OEM compliance Guidelines, there should be no need to force dealers down this path.</p>
<p>I would appreciate an insights anyone else has.</p>

<p>Hi Everyone!</p>
<p>People who want to get a motorcycle usually consider bank or broker as a good option to finance their Powersports, but there is also another option that we must consider is dealer financing. In this thread, I am going to discuss both pros and cons of dealer and broker loans for motorcycles.<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Pros & Cons of Financing Motorcycle Through Dealership</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Pros:</strong> The first and prime benefit of using <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dealer-financing.asp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dealer financing</a> is that approval is straightforward here as compared to bank and broker financing. As they are trying to sell their vehicle or motorcycle, that's why they would like to approve your loan application with a good credit score. Even many dealerships also approve loans with bad or poor credit history by adding some additional terms. These terms could be high premiums, down payments or high-interest rates.<br/><br/><strong>Pros:</strong> Similarly, dealer financing doesn't bind the lender with few options only. Here you have a big pool to select. Yes, you can pick the motorcycle of distinct sizes, engines and companies.<br/><br/><strong>Pros:</strong> Another benefit of using dealership loans is the convenience of the same place. Yes, here you can borrow a loan and purchase a bike at the same place. Moreover, if you maintain a good credit history with dealerships, they could also report it to different loan bureaus.</p>
<p><strong>Cons:</strong> Like all other loan schemes, dealership financing also has some drawbacks. No doubt, in some cases, the interest rates of dealership loans are considered high. Their terms are also deemed rigid to many circumstances.<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Pros & Cons of Financing Motorcycle Through Brokers</strong></span><br/><br/><strong>Pros:</strong> In dealership financing, only a few funders and brands are involved, but usually, brokers are independent, that's why you opportunity to get discounted deals.<br/><br/><strong>Pros:</strong> Secondly, they don't only keep your records safe, but their teams also do great hard work to get one of the best deals for you. If you are in Australia and looking for motorbike broker, then you can see <a href="https://tundramotorbikeloans.finance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tundra Motorbike Loans</a> offers<span>. They also have different blogs that can give you more aware of how motorcycle loans could be approved quickly.<br/><br/><strong>Pros:</strong> As they deal with numerous brands and funders, that's why their interest rates are low, or sometimes they offer exciting discount offers. However, if you are going with a small broker with fewer investors, then discount opportunities will also be decreased.<br/><br/><strong>Cons:</strong> If we talk about the drawbacks of broker loans, then you can face many errors in their service if they are not much experienced. Similarly, hidden broker fees could also be a disadvantage of using them.<br/><br/>If you know more pros and cons of using motorcycling financing via dealership or broker, then you are open to comment below.<br/><br/><a href="https://guaranteeworldautosalesllc.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/08.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://guaranteeworldautosalesllc.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/08.jpg?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-center" width="616" height="346"/></a><br/><br/><br/></span></p> Why Customer Retention Matters to Your Powersports Dealership During This Pandemictag:www.dealerelite.net,2020-05-06:5283893:Topic:10747552020-05-06T13:22:57.600ZSteve Maddenhttps://www.dealerelite.net/profile/SteveMadden
<p>There are a lot of different aspects of customer management that you have to think about on a regular basis. Each of them requires its own strategy, and too often, dealers get so focused on new leads and generating fresh sales that they forget about their best potential profit margin: the repeat customer.</p>

<p>There are a lot of different aspects of customer management that you have to think about on a regular basis. Each of them requires its own strategy, and too often, dealers get so focused on new leads and generating fresh sales that they forget about their best potential profit margin: the repeat customer.</p>
<p>Especially in today's highly-digital, highly-competitive industry & pandemic of the <a href="https://psxdigital.com/cdc-coronavirus/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">COVID-19</a>. Customer retention is truly one of the most valuable assets available to your dealership. <em><strong>NOW & ALWAYS!</strong></em></p>
<p></p>
<p>Why does customer retention matter so much?<img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/4785928083?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="300" class="align-right"/></p>
<ul>
<li>It increases the overall lifetime value of your customers, meaning you get more out of your investment in each lead than if they were a one-time purchase.</li>
<li>It can help you develop strong relationships with your customers, allowing you to offer value and a sense of brand authority.</li>
<li>Customer retention boosts your revenue, with the average repeat customer offering five times more profit potential than a new lead.</li>
<li>When you have repeat business, you'll automatically generate new business through referrals and free word-of-mouth advertising.</li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>What's more is that you will be 40% more likely, at the very least, to sell to an existing customer than to convert a new lead. There truly is a lot of value in repeat business, and that's why it's time to take your focus there.</p>
<p><strong>Customer Retention Rates</strong></p>
<p>The rate at which you retain customers is fairly easy to track. All that you have to do is determine how many customers you have in total and how many of those have come back for an additional purchase over time. You will want to pick a specific window of time so that you can get an accurate measurement because when you develop a new retention strategy, you will need to have measurable goals over a defined time frame.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Here's a quick example of how to figure out your retention rate:</em></span></p>
<ul>
<li><em>2,000 customers at the start of the period</em></li>
<li><em>200 customers acquired</em></li>
<li><em>1,950 customers at the end of the period</em></li>
<li><em>2,000 – 200 = 1,800 existing customers</em></li>
<li><em>1,800 / 1,950 = 0.923 x 100 = <strong>92% retention rate</strong></em></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p>The thing about customer retention is that it costs a fraction of new business marketing efforts, and it's something that will practically take care of itself when you utilize the latest marketing automation and <a href="https://psxdigital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CRM solutions</a> to streamline and manage your efforts. If you really want to boost your business, take a break from lead generation & focus on cultivating the seeds you've already sown.</p>
<p><em>Are you taking this time to develop a plan? What has worked for you & what hasn't? </em></p>

<p>Greetings!</p>
<p>As we know, coronavirus badly affected the global economy but it put very adverse effects on the travel industry and dealerships. Though many companies can work from home in this coronavirus crisis but it hard to work remotely for dealerships and their employees. In this thread, I am going to share my ideas about how <a href="https://www.cbtnews.com/how-dealerships-can-come-out-of-the-covid-19-scare-stronger-than-before/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">dealerships can…</a></p>
<p>Greetings!</p>
<p>As we know, coronavirus badly affected the global economy but it put very adverse effects on the travel industry and dealerships. Though many companies can work from home in this coronavirus crisis but it hard to work remotely for dealerships and their employees. In this thread, I am going to share my ideas about how <a href="https://www.cbtnews.com/how-dealerships-can-come-out-of-the-covid-19-scare-stronger-than-before/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dealerships can survive</a> in the current pandemic.</p>
<p>First of all, the safety of your staff and customers should be your priority. As in the many states of America and other European countries, administrations are opening businesses gradually so you should get proper safety equipment like a mask, hand sanitiser and disinfect sprays etc. for your staff and dealership at first. </p>
<p>Secondly, to deal with social distancing instructions, you will have to train your employees. In this regard, you can also hire medical experts and conduct a proper workshop. Withal, if you don't have enough budget to organize such workshops then you can also follow <a href="https://whomtosupport.com/docs4opendebate/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resources like DOCS4OpenDebate</a> to know about the accurate coronavirus measures. This forum is all about the advice of medical experts and their suggestions about Covid-19 measures. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Now, we need to talk about business survival. It is tough because people are facing severe financial setbacks and most businesses and individuals are not much interested in buying new vehicles. However, it doesn't mean you wouldn't find clients because many companies like retail and courier etc. are still working. To engage more clients, you need to show your <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2020/04/14/cars/online-car-shopping-coronavirus/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">online presence</a>. In this regard, a website or few social media pages wouldn't be enough, you will have to <a href="https://bannerboo.com/bannermaker/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">make banner ads</a> and need to run banner ad campaigns on related platforms. These efforts would make potential clients able to notice about your dealership. Hopefully, you would aware of how banner ads display on the bottom of websites, YouTube videos and other places. </p>
<p>Similarly, to stay connected with your clients the use of the web or mobile applications is also very effective. With the help of such apps, you can receive car instalments from them quickly and can also update their portfolios rapidly if you are using the real-time database.</p>
<p>Withal, if you don't have enough development knowledge then you can also go with <a href="https://blog.back4app.com/firebase/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this serverless app development</a> option to host your application and update data in real-time. Indeed, web and mobile applications are also a part of any business's online presence strategy. By the way, if data privacy is your major concern and you have enough budget then you should try these <a href="https://www.purplecrane.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">custom software development services</a> instead of the cloud ones. </p>
<p>On the contrary, if you are not familiar with online booking of vehicles, inventory tracking and payment procedures and also offer vehicle rental services then Reservety is the best all in one option that you can consider. In this regard, you would just need to pick a <a href="https://reservety.com/rental-website-templates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website template from here</a> and can subscribe to their rental booking software to track your inventory and allow clients to make payments online. This is one of the best eCommerce software that also supports a variety of languages that's why you can definitely engage numerous potential customers. Hopefully, you would double your sales by using this outstanding software. </p>
<p>Moreover, you will have to respond quickly with user-friendly details. Don't forget competition is going to be tough. In this regard, you can get inspiration from the <a href="https://www.royalcarcenter.com/royal-cars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Royal Car Center</a> who are offering used cars, vans and SUVs on monthly instalments. It is easy to select a vehicle of your choice from their virtual car showroom with great ease. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It is also essential to engage potential buyers will competitive prices and additional features. Likewise, you can offer them aftersale services and repairs or can share expert advice with them about the insurance of commercial vehicles. Although to compare van and <a href="https://www.fasttruckinsurance.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trucking insurance quotes</a>, you can get help from here but to get the competitive edge, you can ask your own teams to conduct researches for it.<br/> <br/> On the other hand, dealerships should stay connected with their customers and should share recent details of the auto industry via messaging or emailing them. In this regard, you can go with two types of email marketing strategies. The first one is inbound marketing where dealers try to engage their existing clients. The second one is outbound marketing where you target the new target customers and you can see this complete guide <a href="https://www.duocircle.com/content/outbound-email" target="_blank" rel="noopener">about outbound emails</a> from here. Indeed, the use of outbound email marketing strategies could also beneficial to engage more customers. Especially <a href="https://www.usabledatabases.com/database/us-business-yellow-pages-of-companies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this database</a> can assist you in finding potential B2B dealership leads. No doubt, appropriate customer communication is the key to survive in this crisis.</p>
<p><br/> Hopefully, you will improve your communication skills as a business and will try to include more and more online sources to keep in touch with your existing client and attract new clients as well. <br/> <br/> All in all, I provided a few suggestions to you to survive this pandemic. If you have more ideas, you can share them.<br/> <br/> I am waiting for your responses. <br/> <br/> <a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/4478001517?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/4478001517?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="530" height="353" class="align-center"/></a></p> AUTOREPRICE.COM – CARS SELLING MACHINE FOR DEALERS LAUNCHEDtag:www.dealerelite.net,2020-04-08:5283893:Topic:9888282020-04-08T17:39:11.528ZSteve Maddenhttps://www.dealerelite.net/profile/SteveMadden

<span class="font-size-4"><strong>DEALERS GET UNLIMITED LEADS FOR THREE MONTHS UNIQUE PATENT-PENDING PRICING MODEL</strong></span><br/>
[TOTOWA, NJ, APRIL 7TH, 2020] — : AutoReprice.com has announced the launch of its unique & patent pending pricing model to eliminate the inefficiencies from automotive buying and selling experience. Site allows the sellers mainly car dealers to list their inventories with pre- approved weekly discounts and get verified buyers. AutoReprice is quite different from all the other classified sites as dealers information is not shared on AutoReprice.com unless dealers want to share with a potential customer. This allows dealers to offer better discounts through this 3rd party site without impacting dealer’s own pricing on its own website or through a physical location. <br/>
AutoReprice.com is equipped with an aggressive social media marketing team and has infrastructure to promote the dealer inventory to much larger audience. Unlike classified sites, AutoReprice.com requires the buyers to pay a small deposit to reserve to inspect the vehicle which means that all the leads are genuine and verified. These leads do not require any further negotiation as buyers are obligated to buy the vehicle at the price for which they reserved it. Buyers get three days from the time they reserve a vehicle to perform inspection and have the option to cancel their reservation if they don’t feel comfortable for any reason e.g. dealers information was incorrect about vehicle or price was not correctly exhibited by the dealer. If buyers don’t buy the vehicle they reserved, buyers lose their deposit which compels them to go all the way with the transaction. <br/>
Buyers get better deals through AutoReprice.com and do not have to go through lengthy negotiations and other surprises which they usually face while walking into a dealership otherwise. AutoReprice.com gives them a respectful way to reserve the car at the advertised price and go to dealership with a confirmed price which buyers love. <br/>
AutoReprice.com is a win-win cars buying and selling experience for both consumers and sellers especially dealers. AutoReprice.com is offering aggressive packages to dealers as its introductory offer including three free months of verified leads. For additional information, please send email to build@autoreprice.com or call 501-444-2886 (Auto).</p> Used Vans Sales Ideas?tag:www.dealerelite.net,2020-03-12:5283893:Topic:9110272020-03-12T17:47:11.197ZSteve Maddenhttps://www.dealerelite.net/profile/SteveMadden

<p>Greetings!<br/><br/>Vans have become an essential part of serval business like they are playing a role in delivering couriers, food items and medical stuff. Yes, we are looking to make used vans purchase from a dealer-only auction. According to our finance department, we shouldn't go with this deal due to coronavirus fear factor but don't you think even in worse conditions, commercial vehicles would be still required to deliver medical aid, food and other stuff from one place to another? What are your views in this regard?<br/><br/>Secondly, I am thinking to sanitize these vehicles after purchase to increase the trust of buyers. I also have ideas to go with pre-sale insurance for these vehicles. I found this <a href="https://directvaninsurance.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">direct van insurance site</a> to compare quotes of different insurers for used and new vans. I think it would be great if we offer some discounts on yearly or monthly insurance instalments for users after making any win-win deal with insurance companies. In this regard, we can give a tough time to competitors. Do you think it would be the right approach? Or you think it would be an expensive or risky choice to increase profit margins.<br/><br/>All in all, I want some reliable ideas from your side. Please come with the best recommendations.

<p>Our dealership always tries to use new tactics and include exciting features to engage more clients and this time, we are thinking to offer the sound deading feature for pre-owned vehicles. In this regard, we have purchased a variety of vehicles from the dealership-only auction and now, willing to buy sound deadening mats and other materials etc. </p>
<p>Usually, we use Dynamat, but after reading <a href="https://soundproofempire.com/best-sound-deadening-for-the-money/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">car sound deadening material review</a> from here, we are thinking to include more brands like FatMat Self-Adhesive and Noico Car Sound Deadening Mat due to their easy application. Yes, we are not hiring experts in this, and probably, our dealership workers will perform this activity their own. <br/><br/>Do you think it will be the right strategy if we apply our own? Secondly, as we are going to apply deadening material on multi types of vehicles like trucks, SUV etc. so can you recommend any sound deadening material which will fit for all of them?<br/><br/>Waiting for your responses. <br/><br/></p>

<p>Greetings!</p>
<p>Nowadays, technology is replacing manpower especially when we talk about advanced security for organizations. We are also looking to improve security at our dealership with the help of advanced technology. First of all, we are planning to replace our lighting system with a smart lighting system that could be controlled with a mobile application and yes, motion sensors will also install near the places vehicles are being parked.

<p>Nowadays, technology is replacing manpower especially when we talk about advanced security for organizations. We are also looking to improve security at our dealership with the help of advanced technology. First of all, we are planning to replace our lighting system with a smart lighting system that could be controlled with a mobile application and yes, motion sensors will also install near the places vehicles are being parked. In this regard, I consider using <a href="https://homesecuritygearlab.com/ring-security-system-review/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this security system</a> because my budget is limited nowadays. Actually, I purchased it for my home but now, thinking to use it for the dealership. Do you think it would be a good option for my small dealership?</p>
<p>Moreover, we are also going to install advanced security cameras with smart technology. Yes, we want to keep an eye on all activities happening in the dealership. Withal, it is still crucial to examine the performance of CCTV cameras and monitors and in this regard, we are also thinking to pick a <a href="https://www.noyafa.net/products-10356" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CCTV monitor tester from here</a>. Hopefully, it will stabilize the performance of our security cameras. </p>
<p>On the other hand, to improve entry-level security, it has become expensive for us to hire a receptionist who allows people or workers who can go inside or not. In this regard, our team is planning to install a video entry system from here <a href="https://lobibox.com/pages/virtual-receptionist-kiosk-business-mobile-app">https://lobibox.com/pages/virtual-receptionist-kiosk-business-mobile-app</a>. Actually, works as a virtual receptionist and permits the visitor either he/she can go inside or not on the basis of their <span>integrated Access Card</span> etc. However, I am not sure which other security devices and alarms should be installed in our dealership to increase security and overcome the theft risk.</p>
<p>It would be great if you share your experiences and suggestion with me. I am waiting for your suggestions. </p>
