    I'm tempted to lease a Nissan Ariya

    I did, too! All I do is work, so I don't drive much (I have 3,000 miles after 6 months). 3-minute drive to work. If I could do without a truck, I would have done it.

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    That's a very good point. I just mean it's more of a lower funnel act. But you are absolutely right. Crappy pictures can lead to less further engagement.

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    Just gotta decide whether you believe the data or what the customer says. As always, your pictures are great!

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    Won't argue with you on that. Besides, our difference is only of about 8 pictures and otherwise we agree. Mine was obviously pretty simple. I just presented them with screenshots of multiple options and asked for feedback on what order they preferred to search them. And it wasn't that they...

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    1,000% accurate that photo engagement is near the top of the heap of most important engagement metrics. I think it's the second most important behind payment calculator events.

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    In spite of the fact that customers say they hate this? I agree that photos should be in a certain order, but I'm going to do what the customer says that they like. As I said, this is the way I used to do it, so it took me a lot of convincing to change it, but when the customer speaks, I listen...

    I'm tempted to lease a Nissan Ariya

    Exactly what I did when the big discount came up on the 23 bZ4X. And *POOF* it's gone. That would suggest you are very right.

    Active SRP/VDP CTA vs the usual?

    Interesting. As much as I disliked how Gubagoo fell apart for me, I have to admit that my chat leads are actually dramatically lower with every other vendor I've tried.

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    I could see this working on the dealer site with all of them being that way. On the 3rd party sites, it seems to me that people would see it as a mistake by the dealer and maybe that wouldn't be a good first impression. Just playing devil's advocate a little bit.

    Exterior vs. Interior Inventory Photos?

    Do you have data showing this to be effective or do you just theoretically believe it to be effective? The reason I ask is that I also used to do this and truly believed in it. Then, I asked people on my Facebook what they thought. I had about 20 responses. Not one person liked it.

    Oops. That's not supposed to be on there still. Nothing to see here! :lol:

    I'm tempted to lease a Nissan Ariya

    We actually sold the 23 yesterday retail and sold the 24 to a dealer in Virginia today.

    I'm tempted to lease a Nissan Ariya

    If you like the vehicle and it fills a need, why not?

    Because it doesn't help the shopper find the car they are looking for. It only helps the dealer.

    How do they pull inventory? I see mine on there. I love that (for now) they have no paid listings. Also, I love that they don't have any complicated algorithms at work. Simple filters. I think all 3rd party searches should default to closest first.

    Active SRP/VDP CTA vs the usual?

    We used them and it was great for a while. Then all of a sudden Android users couldn't get notifications of new chats and they couldn't figure it out.

    Active SRP/VDP CTA vs the usual?

    Are you managing the chats on these or are you having Gubagoo handle them?
