Even in places where I am the only one that has bought the keyword. I set this up through Google Adwords. I'm wondering if possibly I...

I am the first to admit that my graphic design skills are lacking plus I do not have the time to sit down and build something from scratch. What would you recommend? Thank you for...

    Just for Fun - Fifty Ugliest Cars of the Past 50 Years

    I would agree with everyone that the Aztec is one of the ugliest vehicles EVER made. There are however, people out there that love them. We just had one on our lot with 145,000 miles on it in that burnt orange color. A young lady came in with a PT Cruiser (another ugly vehicle) that only had...

    We used carsforsale.com for about three months with no leads generated. The cost is great but I just felt we coudl use that money elsewhere.

    Internet Auctions

    We use GMAC SmartAuction and Openlane, with good sucess. I'm not sure what you mean by the best?? Do you mean as far as selection, arbitration issues, cost, or something else?

    What camera do you use for pre-owned inventory?

    We recently picked up a Sony Cybershot DSC-W350. We had a Kodak before this so it would not be comparing apples to apples but, I love this little camera! I can fit it in my pocket and it takes great photos!

    Email a friend leads

    Exactly my thoughts. I feel like they put these leads in thinking that it is not being seen by anyone. I just wasn't sure how to "properly" treat these leads. I'm sure everyone does it differently so there may not be a true answer.

    Spam Mail

    I actually use the GM Lead Management tool in Dealerworld. I go there and change the status to in progress than I add them to my dealer.com leads. I know this is the long way but our store is in the stone ages when it comes to CRM/ILM's.
