The Importance of Positive Online Reviews for Car Dealers

How many positive reviews from customers does your dealership have on Google, DealerRater, Cars.com and other consumer review websites? If the answer is "not many," "not enough,"or "none," then you're significantly increasing your chances of being ruled out by many potential customers and losing them to your competition.

Want to increase your dealership's sales by 80%?

The challenge for car dealerships today:

• Are we asking our customers to complete a positive review?
• How do we get our happy customers to review us positively online?
• How do we prevent the unhappy customers from posting negative reviews?
• What percentage of sales customers are ever asked to review their experience on one (or more) websites?
• Have good follow up with your car dealer sales leads

Get more positive reviews and push those negative reviews down! 

Statistics show that 4 in 5 consumers choose NOT to do business with car dealerships because of their negative consumer reviews online, or because the dealer they wound up doing business with had substantially more positive reviews.
