“Hey, just checking in, have you tried vehicle checks in Autopromotor? We can set something up to run you through the tool...”
That’s the kind of call our account managers make. Not something that’s gone wrong. Something worth acting on: a feature sitting in your account that you’re not using yet, a particular make that’s getting a lot of interest and is worth pushing harder, a change in what buyers in your area are searching for as the seasons turn.
Vehicle checks are a good example. They run inside Autopromotor, powered by Autotrader, and cover outstanding finance, write-offs, mileage discrepancies and stolen markers, with a report you can keep on file. No separate login and no second provider to pay. One car bought with finance still owing on it can wipe out the margin on several others, so it’s the sort of thing worth ten minutes of anyone’s time.
Autopromotor gets updated all year round. A dealer who’s busy on the forecourt has no particular reason to notice, so our account managers do the noticing for you.
And it isn’t just the system. The same team looks after your website, how you show up when someone searches for the cars you sell, the ads putting your stock in front of buyers, and the feed getting your vehicles onto the places you advertise. So there’s no chasing three or four different suppliers who each only know their own corner of it.
That’s the part we think matters most. You shouldn’t need to understand SEO or hosting or ad platforms to get value out of any of it. You’ve got a forecourt to run.
We’ve been working with independent dealers since 1996, and support is the thing dealers bring up with us more than anything else.
