It's the quiet time. Just about everyone has it. Whether it's late at night when everyone's in bed or early in the morning before everyone wakes up, a good chunk of people do much of their important website surfing when there are fewer distractions of life to prevent them from their task at hand.
Buying a car or getting it serviced are two of those important…

Website chat is viewed by many dealers to be an alternative method of communication, as it should be. There are some who view it as a lead generation tool and they can look at numbers to show that they're getting more leads, but to truly test their results that must take a closer look.
Properly positioned and managed chat on dealer websites can definitely be…

For the last 5 years, Google has been my most frequently visited website. It's been my homepage for as long as I can remember. Most times, without even thinking, I begin typing 'www.google.com' into my browser even if I'm not headed in that direction at all. In part, Google is an extension of my being.
I can be dramatic, at…

Before the most recent explosion of internet marketing and technology advancements, car dealers would rely solely on referrals and word of mouth. Then, as the internet grew, online auto sales leads were born and changed the way business development worked. Many dealerships made the costly decision to create an internet department to handle these leads. Others paid their salespeople premium salary to work the leads when they weren't in the showroom selling cars.
Regardless of…

I was surprised by a post that I saw on AutoNews today.
Apparently Toyota has a commercial out with Kyle Busch singing "Everyone needs a second chance" as a pun. "Experts" suggest that Toyota is pulling a subliminal messaging act, trying to get…

If you’re anything like me, you know the wonderfulness that comes with a weekend. Now, of course some dealerships are open on Sundays, but in some states (Hi, New Jersey!) it is illegal for car dealers to be open. Or, at least the car lot.

No matter your dealership location, franchise, size, or overall rating, you probably will agree that the success of any dealership is measured in the number of sales. In order to obtain sales, you depend on a combination of repeat business, referral business, and of course, automotive lead generation.
