Virtual Tools Designed to Drive your Online Business:

  • Get up-to-the-minute analytics with nVision
    Your Autotrader listings package includes the nVision analytics dashboard for reporting on your inventory and your digital investments that will help you get maximum results.
  • Connect in the moment with chat and text
    Be sure that you are ready to work with your customers virtually - whether it’s email, text, chat or talking over the phone. We’d encourage you to be ready to help shoppers with their needs even if not in the showroom. If chat and text aren’t yet enabled on your listings, contact your Dealer Success Consultant.
  • Get sales started online with Digital Retailing
    Adding Digital Retailing to your listings enables shoppers to get started on the buying process from home and minimizing face-to-face interaction.
  • Extend your reach and deliver with Market Extension
    If you haven’t considered delivery of vehicles before, now is a great time. If you have the logistics and capabilities in place, be sure to let your consumers know that you will deliver to their doorstep. Create social posts, update your comments on Autotrader, and even your vehicle images if you can. Even better – film a quick phone video talking about your approach during COVID-19 and all that you are doing to keep your community healthy while also helping your customers find the right car. We can put that video up on your listings to get it in front of ready-to-buy shoppers.
