iMagicLab or Higher Gear for our CRM?

One more suggestion. How would you like to have a system that was built from the ground up on one platform, which includes your ILM/CRM/Inventory/web Site/Digital Marketing etc. No fragmented data bases, everything talks to each other seamlessly. This system was created in the Tonkin Auto Group (18 Roof Top group) organization several years ago. No other company has built their entire solutions on one platform. Most companies develop an ILM or CRM or web sites, but not everything from the ground up………It’s worth taking a look at.
 
Hello,

I'm brand new to this industry. I'm currently trying to obtain a dealers license in CA and I need some help.

To my understanding, in order to sell new/used cars in CA, you have to have a office location zoned to sell cars. I don't have the financing to lease a location just yet. I plan to eventually open a location of my own but would like to get my feet wet and sell a few cars. How can I do this? Any comments/suggestions?
 
I have actually worked for both of these companies in the past,know both products inside and out, and without hesitation, recommend iMagicLab above any other CRM company. iMagicLab is a company with a great product for both internet and showroom control, and has all necessary certifications for major DMS integration (RCI for Reynolds, ADP certification, and with DealerTrak DMS). iMagicLab is also a web based provider, compared to Higher Gear's archaic client server based architecture (who wants a server on site for a CRM system??).
Lastly, Keith and his team at iMagicLab are tops in the industry in regards to email and digital marketing. Creating media rich ang graphic emails are a breeze with iMagicLab.
