My intention wasn't to send you back to the drawing board, but to give you a little perspective that could help you tune things.I appreciate the advice, we'll get to the drawing board some more on how to not come off like that.
About 10 years ago or so, I remember a dealer talking at Digital Dealer about how they were leading with an interior photo on the SRP. While it looks abnormal, it was generating more click throughs because it was abnormal. That seemed to make some logical sense... all the images of the exterior and then you see something different -- perhaps a consumer might click on it because it is indeed "different".
Otherwise, it makes sense to do exterior and then interior and then back again.
Dealers tend to prioritize exterior photos because the outside appearance is often the first thing that attracts buyers. It creates that initial “wow” factor. A clean, well-maintained exterior can grab attention quickly. However, interior photos are just as important since they reveal the vehicle’s condition, features, and comfort, which are key to making a final decision. Buyers like you often want to get straight to the interior to assess things like seat condition, dashboard, and tech features. Ideally, dealers should balance both by showcasing the exterior first to catch interest and then provide plenty of clear interior shots for serious buyers to evaluate the vehicle fully. So while exterior photos draw people in, interior photos help close the deal. If you want inspiration on how dealers present their photos, you might want to contact Pinterest for some visual ideas.
Absolutely their AI is legit and you would never want to connect another 3rd party AI to DriveCentric. Other AI's that layer on an older CRM like eLead, Vin, etc make sense because legacy systems don't have a baked in solution. You always want the left hand knowing what the right hand is doing.Currently with Dealer Peak looking to switch to Drive Centric looking for some feedback. Is their AI really good or should we look for outside one and connect with theirs. AI Drivee AI. Thank You for any feedback.
Ya, I spoke too soon. It used to be a flat $1 and then went to a flat $3 several years ago.Hi,
Thank you for the tip. I spoke with quickbooks. I asked if there is a way to run a debit card as an eCheck and they said no. The only way is to get their checking account and routing # and run it as an echeck for 1% fee. Just curious how your doing it that way for a flat $3 charge?
