Pete Batten, senior manager product and sales at DealerTrack, is sharing his expertise with automotive dealers and managers on why they should move more of their dealership’s sales process online.
Today’s path to a vehicle sale is more likely to be electronic than face-to-face. This shift in consumer preference holds enormous benefits for dealerships, if you embrace it. Pete Batten will show you how moving more of your dealership’s sales process online will lead to more engaged consumers, more qualified leads and faster sales. He’ll discuss how traditional online tools and workflows are often stumbling blocks, and learn about new advances that can be integrated into an existing website to create a better shopping experience that moves consumers down the online sales funnel so they arrive at the dealership ready to buy.
