You can’t manage what you can’t measure.
To take meaningful action, you need to know the specifics of your operations. Diving deep into every aspect of your Service and Parts department’s data provides you with a holistic view of your dealership’s performance along with clarity into where you may be missing service traffic.
By using a solution with powerful measuring capabilities, you’ll be able to understand where your true opportunity lies for driving traffic into your service lanes. The right solution can also help you gain the actionable insights you need for capturing every efficiency and opportunity. By maximizing your service retention and loyalty, you can find both profitability now as well as continuous growth down the road.
Leveraging your tools.
There are any number of tools that purport to help you make the most of available service opportunities. Rather than taking a “scatter-gun approach” to prospecting, using a proven methodology to drive qualified customers to dealers’ service lanes will consistently deliver greater revenue. Ask the tough questions — such as whether it can offer true, multi-channel, highly targeted private offers. And be sure to inquire whether it can handle traditional service reminders and repairs as well as recalls.
Make your digital marketing dollars work as hard as you do.
The most forward-thinking networks and dealerships know that the key to being most effective in today’s multi-device, digital world is to go beyond clicks and impressions. They seek ways to make their RO data work harder. They need to not only open, but also close, the loop with campaign targets to see who’s actually coming into their service lanes and maximize their return on marketing investments. They understand that success depends on making smart marketing choices guided by solutions and processes that give them the flexibility to pivot in real time and deliver on the promise.
