The Follow-Up
In the sixth episode of 2022 of The Vehicle Acquisition Council, Tom and Mark discuss the importance of having a follow-up process in place for dealerships looking to improve their street purchase strategies. Not only is it important that you have an effective system in place for your dealership to build trust through communication but your chance of acquiring private party vehicles increases.
Have you ever wondered how to improve your street purchase strategy? Tune into the Vehicle Acquisition Council every month for candid conversations with top industry minds. Join us as we discuss technology, trends and best practices in an ever-changing automotive landscape!
Highlights and Thought Starters:
- Dealerships not doing follow-up with private sellers are losing 75% of opportunities to acquire private party vehicles.
- Less than 25% of private sellers will sell their vehicles on first contact.
- Offering valuable advice to a private seller who is thinking about selling their vehicle is key to building relationships.
"By dropping the seed of what comes next and fulfilling what you said would happen, provides a lot of credibility for the dealership" - Tom Gregg
Guests & Panelists
