For dealerships, a lead is a person who shows interest in buying a car or a contact with a potential customer. Dealerships look forward to generating as many leads as possible, to make more sales. With that being said, leads are only a piece of information that is only valuable if it leads to a sale. Without a Business Development Center, which helps convert online customers into dealership visitors, leads have little value.

However, it may likely be that dealership BDCs are struggling with internet leads. They are preoccupied with chatting, making outbound calls, handling them, and receiving incoming sales calls.

In an interview with Brad on Fixed OPS Digital, Scott Davis stated, “The 3 major issues with BDCs include too many data sources, outdated manual processes, and desk phones.” To summarize his interview, he means to say that there are only so many tasks that the team can handle, and that is understandable. However, this will result in many overlooked potential customers resulting in lost opportunities.

Helping Hand

This is where the AutoLeadPro.com Virtual BDC and lead verification comes in. We provide a helping hand to the existing Business Development Center in your dealership and make sure that all interested, prospective buyers are well attended to and transferred to your dealership. We make sure that all you deal with are prospects looking for a vehicle or we replace that lead with a new one. AutoLeadPro VActive is your specialized virtual teammate who will assist and work with you to generate more sales.

Saves Time

Although leads are defined as potential customers, it is not guaranteed that all of them will buy. The most common problem associated with leads is the validity of the applicant’s information.

Oftentimes dealerships spend both, valuable time and money, chasing an applicant only to find:

  • Disconnected or incorrect phone number
  • The customer never applied for a loan
  • Applicant already purchased a vehicle
  • Application completed obtaining a prize or reward

By calling, texting, and emailing every lead, the VActive Virtual BDC eliminates dealerships’ wasted time calling all these leads themselves. When we get a live person on the phone, we transfer it to the dealership and send a text message including the time (to call leads back) when the dealership missed a call with the applicant. VActive Virtual BDC is your dealership’s frontline. They verify each lead first before it reaches the dealership. As a result, your valuable time can be spent on other tasks.

More chances of winning sales

With the rising number of bad credit auto leads, especially after the pandemic hit, more people are interested in special financing. When your dealership offers special finance, you have more prospective buyers on the way, and working with AppleConnect helps you throughout the entire process!

Through their innovative VActive Technology, they verify active phone numbers and email addresses. Text messages are generated and calls are made to connect with prospects. They also replace leads that don’t respond with new ones, hence, better chances of successful sales!

Follow up

It’s not easy to get in touch with a lead and the timing is very sensitive as consumers with bad credit tend to shop with multiple companies and make quick decisions.

VActive Virtual BDC makes sure to reach out and call leads with whom you have not connected. They also make sure to follow up on leads that have missed a call and they also send text messages and email to deliver all qualified leads to you.

In addition, they follow up with the applicants that miss appointments with the dealership and try to reschedule.
