NADA Convention & Expo
Some of the partners with Better Car People recently traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada for the NADA Convention & Expo that took place February 3-6, 2012. The NADA Convention & Expo provides automotive industry personnel with franchise meetings, workshop sessions and shopping, all in one location.
Speakers at the convention included former President George W. Bush, inspiration for the film 127 Hours, Aron Ralston, Chrysler, LLC CEO, Sergio Marchionne and 2011 NADA Chairman, Stephen Wade. There were also over 40 workshops held at this years convention. Workshops ranged from ways to reduce your operating cost, lectures on driving traffic to information on improving Internet sales. NADA offered a little something for everyone!
Better Car People used NADA as an opportunity to meet with existing CRM vendors to explore new development of our core product, Overnight BDC and as a chance to explore how to integrate it with their systems further. We were also able to prospect some new relationships that will help move our product into even more dealerships in the coming year.
Another one of the highlights of the weekend included meeting former NBA player, Dr. J and former running back for the St. Louis Rams, Eric Dickerson.
We are already looking forward to NADA 2013 in sunny Orlando, FL. Will we see you there?

The GM eSummit gives us a chance to meet our customers
Better Car People always enjoys meeting its customers and this year’s GM eSummit tour is going to be a great opportunity to do just that. Recently at the GM eSummit we attended in Dallas, TX. one of our current client came up first thing in the morning and was telling us how much he loved Overnight BDC and how he has his life back. No more waking up at 2:00 AM to answer a lead or better yet 60 Hand Raiser leads. He also let us know how much he liked the morning report. This gave him a quick reference to all his resent leads. Just then he remembered he didn’t update his schedule to accommodate that he was going to be at the General Motors eSummit all day. At his store they are on a schedule and use us during times when the store is closed or during holidays. We then simply logged in the system and manually changed the times to watch his sales leads all day while enjoyed his sections at the eSummit.
