Let Your Sales Team Sell
What a Show...
Let Your Sales Team Sell
Use event-driven marketing technology to automate the communications process.
There's a business maxim that says, "only pay people to do what they're best at." And in no occupation is
that more true than in sales.
Sales people are a different breed. They're relationship builders and showmen who are only in their
element when interacting with a prospect. What they're not, in most cases, are detailed-oriented
people who enjoy paperwork and process.
So it would behoove you to see to it that your sales team is given every opportunity to be on the lot
with customers and not stuck behind a desk filling out forms, writing thank you notes, sending out
marketing materials and the like. And thanks to event-driven marketing technology, they don't have to.
This new technology allows the customer communications process to be set up ahead of time and then, when
a customer reaches any of dozens of milestones (visits the website, takes a test drive, buys a car, leases
a car, etc.) they're automatically sent out the appropriate communication. Postcards, emails, phone
messages, streaming video - it can all be automated. And when it is, your sales team is freed from the
paperwork nightmare and set free to do what they do best... sell cars.
Now that's technology we can all get behind.

What a Show...
Dealer Impact would like to thank all you that visited our booth at NADA in Orlando.
We had a great time - we made some new friends, caught up with some old ones and did a
little business along the way.
The winner of the massage chair was Danny Wilson from Wilson Cadillac in Ames. Congratulations Danny!
The only question we have for you is will you put it in the lobby of your dealership or will it end
up in the den at home?
Either way, congrats!
