Call Button For Action

A consumer will spend hours and hours on the Internet looking for the car they want, but will they get in touch with you? The better question is do you make it easy for them to contact you? Now, there’s a new feature available to Dealer Impact customers that helps put your Web visitors in touch with you hassle free. It’s called Call Button. Call Button is a feature placed on individual pages of your Web site that helps visitors connect directly to you or any number of dealership representatives. It easily connects your Web site visitors to your sales, service, parts, finance and every department in your dealership. For your Internet sales staff, it eliminates missed opportunities. Perillo BMW and Perillo Lincoln Saab are finding that out first-hand. "The email notification feature is something I especially like because a missed call is a missed opportunity," says Diane Brown, Internet sales manager at Perillo. "We don’t 'miss' any with Call Button."







      Don’t Be a "Face in the Crowd"

Does your dealership look exactly like the competition? Do you all sell the exact same cars and trucks? We know the answer is no, but we ask to illustrate a point: one size does not fit all. However, when it comes to virtual dealerships many dealers look just like their competition. A dealership goes to great lengths to distinguish its physical dealership from the competition, yet when it comes to establishing a virtual dealership many dealers settle for a cookie-cutter presence. We’ve created brand identity for our dealers’ virtual dealerships because it’s important to distinguish yourself to the Internet consumer. Why? Consumers can shop as many virtual dealerships as they want and if you look like every other dealer they click on, they’re not going to remember you. Make a difference, standout and leave an impression. You can’t do that if you are just a face in the crowd.





Rev Up Your CRM with RPM Mail

To ramp up their email lead management, they recently added RPM Mail from Dealer Impact. Now they’re able to manage every lead that comes in from their lead sources in one program. More importantly, they have an email marketing program that does more than respond to leads. It’s a prospecting tool with multiple features, many of them automated for dormant leads and delivered customers. "It saves our Internet sales staff a ton of time and has allowed each one of us to reach a larger client base," says Greg Wells, of Rusty Wallis Honda. "The usability is awesome. You don't pull your hair out using RPM Mail."

That's one of the best attributes of RPM Mail__it's user-friendly despite a multitude of features. For more information or a demonstration of RPM Mail, contact us at 877-334-9638
