The customers that dealerships serve are very diverse. Their needs and requirements vary, as do their personalities. As anyone that has spent time in a dealership can attest, some people know exactly what they want, and many people do not. Car enthusiasts tend to research, use specific industry terminology, and generally know what they are after. But what about those that don’t? The automotive industry moves quickly, and advancements, new features, and incredible options become available every year. Making sure customers are informed and know what is available to them can make a big difference in revenue on a deal.
Adding accessory parts to a deal should be a quick and simple process. It's about being the source of information, not hindering the sale. It can be difficult for customers to visualize what they are after. Having the right tool to easily display what the part is helps the customer fully understand what’s being offered and what value it would bring to them. When different variants of the same accessory are available, such as roof racks, having a visual to clearly show the differences is key. Giving the customer more power to customize the sale not only increases the customer experience, but also maximizes revenue.
It's one thing to have a tool to help with selling accessory parts, but having it built into the sales process is what ensures the dealership, and the customer will get the most benefit. Disjointed processes cause delays, which cause frustration, ultimately increasing the likelihood of losing a sale. With a platform allowing customers to pick and choose accessories online or while making the deal, and fitting perfectly into the desking process, means there are no delays.
