Online Retailing

Does online retailing mean you have to use a completely different set of tools to sell a car than you do when the customer is in store? Are you trying to back into an online deal from your desking tool and ultimately your DMS, and then negotiating through email or text? This is frustrating for you and feels slow and disconnected for your customer. Online retailing is retailing, period.  It should enhance your in-store process.

What if you could…

  • Connect with customers through engaging and authentic interactions as they’re shopping on your website?
  • Generate an accurate trade-in valuation online that is applied to a remote deal?
  • Accept credit applications and documentation like a driver license as the customer is shopping online?
  • Customize applicable rebates, incentives, and aftermarket presentations for the customer all online?
  • Capture secure signatures digitally, no matter where a customer is?
  • Maintain growing compliance requirements in a remote environment?

Here’s How

ChatSmart

When a customer is shopping in the store and has a question about a vehicle, you get them an answer immediately, but it’s not as simple when they are shopping on your website. And an automated response from your CRM isn’t helping you win any business. You can win deals online, but you have to deliver the same expectations as in store. Gubagoo ChatSmart is a fully managed chat platform that provides an immediate human-to-human interaction, so you can secure and track more inbound leads.

  • Connect with customers and activate their car buying experience virtually through chat, video, text, or Facebook Messenger.
  • Build transparency with a human-to-human interaction and real-time support.
  • Deliver a personalized chat experience with advanced greeter technology designed to interact based on behavior and intent.
  • Never miss an opportunity with the ability to jump into live chats as needed and transfer conversations from desktop to your phone while on the go.
  • Leverage a single unique identifier for every customer in FOCUS to create a seamless deal process from start to finish.

With people as the heartbeat of technology, your sales will soar. 

Gubagoo Virtual Retailing

How frustrating is it when a customer tries to build a deal online and you know taxes and fees won’t match and a bank isn’t going to buy the deal? You have to rebuild the deal, get it bought, and then explain to the customer why the payment has gone up by $61. You don’t get to sell, instead you have to manage damage control. Gubagoo Virtual Retailing is an end-to-end retailing experience that uses the same deal online and in-store. No inaccurate payments and no rekeying – and you get to focus on selling again.

  • Present down-to-the-penny detailed loan or lease payment options online for any vehicle, while accounting for their trade-in using real market data.
  • Speed up the paperwork process with online credit applications and document uploads.
  • Build accurate deals online with stackable rebates and incentives, real-time lender approvals, and a first pass at aftermarket products.
  • Use a single deal throughout the transaction – online, in the CRM, in F&I, and through to accounting with no duplicates and no rekeying.

F&I Manager

“Alright, 48 month term. Down payment looks good. We’ve got their credit information. Okay, let’s get this rolling. Hey, John and Lisa. How are you guys doing?”

Lisa

“Good just hanging at home. How are you today?”

F&I Manager

“I’m doing great. So are you guys ready to get started?”

John

“Sure! How’s this going to work exactly?”

F&I Manager

“That’s a great question. It’s really not that different than the process you did the last time you were here buying your car. We’ll go through some product protection information on the menu, sign all the paperwork the same way you’re used to except this time we’re going to do it through the computer screen. When we’re all finished, I’ll send you an email with your paperwork and you’ll be good to go.

Lisa

“Sounds pretty easy.”

F&I Manager

“Yup, you’ll be able to interact with screen and sign just like if you were sitting right here. So feel free to ask any questions along the way. Sound good?

John

“Yeah, sounds good to us.”

F&I Manager

“Alright, John and Lisa, let’s get started.”

DEALsign
