The iPad article - why the hell not?

I love the idea of using Presto Reviews on an iPad because you can place an iPad in the service lounge or sales lounge where customers can post their reviews while in the building.

The number of reviews that you could capture in the store would be amazing. I'm doing an IRM seminar at Digital Dealer on Tuesday at 4:30 pm and I think I will add that to my presentation.

Speaking of notes Matt, the iPad finally converted me to use EverNote. I should have converted to that a long time ago.

If you aren't using this app yet (doesn't matter the platform: PC, Mac, Blackberry, iPhone, etc) you should give it a try. It is free.

My thoughts exactly. We're figuring out a time in the sales process where we can have the customer take a few minutes and fill out a review. Probably right before the Finance process but we're still working that out. Hopefully this will net a ton of reviews.

Best of luck at Digital Dealer.

My iPad has not left my side at work or home. I wonder if I need iPad awareness meetings? I am forward thinking like all of you are and for some reason finding myself wondering how to implement the iPad in the sales process and how to get rid of workstations for sales reps. I feel that someone will be putting out a CRM APP soon. If the auto industry as a whole jumps all over this "game changer", then it's game over just like (IF) Verizon gets the iPhone.

@Mike We are right there with you! Our CRM already works on the iPad and we have dealers using it already!

@ Matt;

How well does the CRM work with the Ipad? Is it the mobile version?

@Johnathan

Our full version works on the iPad, not a special mobile version like we have for iPhone. Works great for salespeople to do their daily tasks.

I've seen dealers using their smart phone apps to deiplay and run on iPad, but is anyone really using iPads in the showroom?
