Put a QR code on your used car window stickers and link it to a "why buy" video message. Thank them for their interest and how easy it is to do business with your store.
The really interesting part of our talk was about the QR codes that link a shopper directly to your chat agent on their cell phone.
What do you all think? Will it help sell cars if implemented correctly?
Let's see here, a QR Code that launches a chat session... Hmmm... Is this because dialing a phone number and having an actual conversation is so darn cumbersome?
I'll admit it, I'm a QR naysayer, but it seems to me like the proponents all have a solution in search of a problem to solve.
Jeff, I agree that you should let folks contact you in every way possible and I'm a big fan of chat - on your website.Isn't that the fun of brain storming around features of a product?
If a phone call was the obvious answer then why would chat exist?
No matter, you're going to have people prefer different methods of contact. Chat - proven to be one of the preferences.
But from what I've seen, usage is so low that most dealers won't bother. QR Codes are a great concept, but they really aren't catching on with the public. And I don't think they ever will in the US.
