Using text messages to quickly find automobile offers!
It’s high noon at the Chevrolet dealership I co-own on Friday, April 28th, 2023. With a hefty $8,000 reduction off the MSRP for 2023 vehicles, we’re anxious to move our inventory of Silverados this month. We currently have 4,000 leads in our pipeline.
It would take our modest sales team days to get in touch with all of these potential customers if we used a traditional CRM system. With SimpSocial, however, we were able to SMS them in less than 20 minutes. Our outreach turned a calm showroom into a busy center, and our sales crew is currently overloaded with 147 interested clients. Every salesperson at our dealership is currently on the phone speaking with a customer about the 2023 Silverado.
Compared to other follow-up strategies, text messaging is noticeably more effective in the automotive sector. It enables dealerships to quickly move from being completely idle to having every salesperson engage with a consumer.
Dealerships must make the most of every opportunity to stay competitive as the economy starts to stabilize and sales begin to slow down. Due to the limited amount of inventory that can be produced, it’s crucial to have a system in place that enables quick vehicle turnover to increase allocation.
The answer is SimpSocial! Your sales team doesn’t need to waste time calling inactive clients and leaving a ton of voicemails. Instead, all you need to do is press a button to start your dealership!
