    Open Dealer Exchange?

    Almost 600 views and no replies - I guess I'll tell my buddy to pass on this company as apparently no one uses their services!

    Open Dealer Exchange?

    Mods, thanks for the move - I kind of debated whether it should go in this forum but I'm afraid I wasn't sure what the alphabet soup (CRM, ILM, XYZPDQ!) actually stood for :) Can't tell the players without a program!

    Open Dealer Exchange?

    Hope this is the right forum, I kind of took a guess at where this fits... A friend of mine is looking at a position with a company called Open Dealer Exchange. According to their website, they offer some sort of integration between the DMS and the various funding sources (banks, CU's...

    Reynolds and Reynolds sold?

    Heard some rumors that R&R is either for sale or sold - any rumblings out in the world beyond the 'net? If true, I wonder if Brockman will retain the UCS piece of the company.

    R&R ERALink Query Builder error

    See, that's where you go off-track. The purpose of the R&R system is not to make the store profitable, it is there to make Bob Brockman profitable. Anything else is beside the point...

    R&R ERALink Query Builder error

    That is a 100% by design Bob Brockman tactic. He ran UCS that way, ran FDCS that way, and is now running Reynolds that way. If you want it, you need to pay him for it. If URey doesn't provide the functionality you're looking for, too bad, you don't need it anyway. And don't forget to pay on...

    Advice on Craigslist ad posting services

    Oh, and a personal pet peeve. Spelling and grammar, grammar and spelling - English is your friend!! I've never purchased anything that is "for sell."

    Best Dealership Websites EVER!

    Love Teeter Honda :) I will say this, at least the phone number is front and center on all of these - I've seen too many sites - not just dealers sites - where the phone number and address is buried three clicks in under 6 different menus. Huge, huge, huge mistake, IMHO. If I have to work...

    Advice on Craigslist ad posting services

    I'm curious as to how the dealer portion of CL works. In looking at the CL terms of use, it seems like 3rd party posters are prohibited - is there an exeption to this for companies like Cargigi? I'm assuming they must have some sort of agreement with CL that allows them to post on behalf of...

    UCS DMS

    Just found this forum and thought I'd add my two cents. I've been out of this industry for a number of years, but had a front row seat for most of the 80's and 90's. To the best of my knowledge, this is the UCS/FDCS/Reynolds cliff notes. UCS was founded in the 70's, I believe, by Bob...
