Internet: A Win-Win for Car Buyers and Dealers

According to industry research, nearly 85 percent of all new and used car purchasers shop online first before even visiting a dealership. They spend an average of four hours comparing vehicles and prices on a wide variety of manufacturer and third-party sites such as Kelly Blue Book, Edmunds and Yahoo.com. Most searches eventually lead to a dealership site.

Dealers Create More Leads through the Internet
Not surprising, over 80 percent of all activity on dealer websites is related to inventory. In fact, dealers have an opportunity to expand their customer base through the Internet and, in particular, for used cars sales. To create a positive online experience and secure more leads and sales, dealers should provide great visuals and information. In addition to vehicle specs and photos, rich media such as videos are a great way to showcase cars and engage the customer. Information should be fresh, accurate and brief to keep customers coming back. Rich media makes it easy for prospects to see and hear what they want before taking the next step. Providing a form of interactive communication from the website is ideal and will help move a casual browser to a lead quicker in today’s online environment.
