How to Maximize New Car Leads for Used Car Sales

Description

Autobytel has partnered with Polk to track sales results on all Autobytel New and Used Car Quote Requests. Polk matches these leads to State Registration data for all 50 States. Scott will discuss numerous standard reports that include: Close Rate by Source, Close Rate by Make, Crossover between Makes (submitted a lead for a Toyota and bought a Nissan), Crossover between New and Used (submitted a lead for New and bought Used), and Time in Between Lead Submissions and Purchase. Most importantly, what can dealers can do with this information will be discussed. By the end of this discussion, you may redefine who your “competition” really is and refine your Internet Sales process. For a Toyota dealer, you may find you aren’t losing business to the local Toyota store, rather, to the used independent across town.
