Things are changing and so is the car business. Only a few short years ago the thought of having a designated Internet Car Salesman or woman was unheard of, but today practically every car dealership has one person or even a whole team of salespeople that work with potential customers that contact them via the Internet. Traditional advertising is losing the impact in once had and the better dealers are using more of their budget on Internet advertising and less on print, radio and television.
It is said that nearly 90 percent of the car buyers today use the Internet to research and shop for a vehicle before they ever step foot into a dealership. The car buying process is changing and we need to change with it if we are going to be selling cars in the future. Granted people still need to test drive a car and sign paperwork, but they no longer visit multiple dealers before they make a purchase. Currently the statistics tell us that automobile buyer visits 1.2 dealerships before they buy. What does that mean to you and me, less “Fresh Ups”, less opportunity, smarter consumers and the need for more Internet Car Salesmen.
