Not knowing where the economy is going can be frightening for businesses, especially dealerships. With pressures from the continued supply chain slowdowns and a portion of customers opting to purchase directly from manufacturers or online retailers, dealerships are in need of ways to drive revenue.

One thing your dealership can be certain of is your tireless Revenue Digital Assistant™ persistently following up on each lead.

Most dealerships partnering with Conversica today utilize the Real-Time Lead Nurturing conversation to maximize their Sales team’s effectiveness. But did you know Conversica has a library full of conversations designed with your dealership’s needs in mind?

Here are five conversations you should be using if you’re not already.

1. Real-Time Trade-In

Need to follow up with leads inquiring about trade-ins online? Add leads to the Real-Time Trade-In conversation that submitted their information to a third party to see how much their current vehicle would be worth.

Common lead sources include Kelly Blue Book ICO Dealer Website, AutoTrader.com, Kelly Blue Book Trade-in Advisor, Trade-In Valet, and Tradepending.

On average, dealerships see a Conversation Rate of 26% when using this conversation.

Pro Tip: VinSolution customers can start the conversation as a text message with our SMS First capabilities. Customers using other CRMs can find great success with the Email-to-SMS conversations.

2. Off Lease Outreach

How do you systematically reach out to your leaseholders near the end of their contracts?

If the answer isn’t “add them to the Off Lease Outreach conversation,” you could be missing out! This conversation invites the lead to engage with a representative to explore their next steps. The Spanish SMS version of this conversation is a great way to offer more communication options to your customers.

On average, dealerships see a Conversation Rate of 20% when using this conversation.
