"Not only do the dealers have more cars to sell, but this supports opportunities for the lot vendors to service, increased repair orders in the service department and more warranties to be offered in finance."
Gregg expressed that the engagements on the platform were only possible with the team's continued focus on behind-the-scenes communication best practices. The Vehicle Acquisition Network team, ensures they follow the regulatory process A2P 10DLC (application to person 10-digit long code).
"Some carriers use this to establish a trust score of the sender to filter potentially unwanted messages to its customers. VAN registers each US phone number for our dealers to ensure optimum message delivery permitting the volume of messages over the past 12 months."
Mark Curcio, Vehicle Acquisition Network's COO recently wrote a blog post about automotive dealer's continued movement away from auctions and adds the following:
