How Can Dealers Save Time With A Dragon2000 Website?

Switching website providers can be a daunting prospect for car dealers, however when a new website offers potential savings in both time and money for your dealership, then the upgrade of your online showroom can seem much more essential.

Expertly-designed websites created by Dragon2000 offer the unique advantage of being fully integrated with the DragonDMS dealer management system, which means that car dealers who are taking advantage of a website powered by the DMS can benefit from key features that could help increase their business growth.

Here are 5 quick timesaving features that can benefit your dealership when you switch to a Dragon2000 dealer website:

Advertise Stock Instantly
Vehicles in your DragonDMS dealer management system can be advertised on your Dragon2000 website at the click of a button, complete with the specification, images, videos, pricing information and more, all pulled straight from the vehicle record and without wasted time re-entering any details.

Any future changes to your vehicle record in the DMS will also immediately update on your website to guarantee your customers are always looking at the most accurate and up-to-date information, helping with their buying decisions and making sure any pricing changes are effective immediately.

Sell Vehicles 24/7
Online car buyers browsing for their next vehicle in the evening don’t have to wait until your dealership re-opens the following morning before enquiring about their desired vehicle, with finance calculators available on your website allowing them to work out if they can afford the purchase with an immediate quote.

The live chat feature can also ensure that whilst your prospective customers are at their most engaged, they can communicate instantly through your website with questions about either your business or your stock, and your website can also provide the option to reserve the car with an online card payment deposit at any time of the day or night, ready for your sales team to progress the vehicle sale at the earliest opportunity.

All of these features are available to use 24/7 with websites powered by Dragon2000, enabling you to sell vehicles even when you’re closed and boosting your profits in the process.

Upload Interactive Stock Images
Allow your customers to position themselves in the driving seat of your vehicles without having to leave the house. Thanks to Dragon2000’s dealer websites and the Spin360 mobile app, 360° images can be uploaded to your website to recreate the showroom experience on your stock pages, with the online customer having complete freedom over their movement both inside and outside of your vehicle.

Using the Spin360 app, dealers can instantly access their DragonDMS stock and begin capturing and uploading 360° images to build customer trust online and transparency with the vehicles on the forecourt, while also impressing prospects with your use of the modern technology that makes you stand out from other dealerships.

Take Online Service Bookings
If you operate a workshop or are a garage-only business, your customers can book themselves in for a service using the booking tool on Dragon2000’s dealer websites, saving you time from picking up the phone throughout the day and dealing with incoming enquiries, and also accommodating customers making bookings out of hours when it’s more convenient for them.

The customer’s contact details, vehicle information, any relevant notes, and the requested date and time of the service, can all be provided by the customer online, with the data sent straight into your DragonDMS ready for you to confirm the appointment, without having to re-type the details.

Sell Parts And Accessories
If your business sells more than just vehicles, such as parts and accessories, then this can all be sold on your Dragon2000 dealer website to boost profits, using the ecommerce feature in the DragonDMS dealer management system.

Your website will show the accurate quantity levels of your items in the DMS and allow customers to make card payments online at the checkout stage, ensuring you can sell products outside of business hours to provide your dealership with an extra source of income.
