Collective Point's AutoIM
Today’s automobile buyers use the Internet as a dealer-neutral research and
selection tool for new and used vehicles. Dealers are typically unable to
influence the buyer’s direction as most potential customers searching for a
vehicle are directed to multiple suppliers who all, within several days, will
contact them through email or by telephone.
AutoIM gives you the ability to directly touch customers browsing your website
from the beginning of the car buying process. You are able to instantly
communicate with and influence customers in real-time directly from your web
site dramatically enhancing the customer experience. AutoIM gives your sales
force the opportunity to immediately establish a relationship with a customer
and to set showroom appointments. This immediate relationship will distinguish
your dealership from your competitors.

to initiate a chat. Those chats can be routed to any location, sales team,
specific agent, or service department personnel. Disable the chat icon at the
end of the day when the dealership closes or take advantage of our offshore

Canned Responses and Links

session. From both the administrative web console and the agent window,
specific users can customize responses or links by adding new ones or updating
existing ones.

Reports

Metrics pertaining to an application’s return on investment (ROI) are generally
difficult to track. AutoIM reporting allows administrators to track specific
metrics such as agents use of the tool, a ranked report of the top web pages
from where buyers are coming from, and number of chats per day.
