Dealer Text Solutions Launches 'NEWCAR' Mobile Marketing Solution for Auto Sales

Image Dealer Text Solutions announces the launch of their NEWCAR mobile marketing solution for auto sales. The web-based application uses the vanity Common Short Code NEWCAR (639227) and enables instant, two-way communications between dealers and their customers' mobile devices via text messaging. San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 12, 2008 -- Dealer Text Solutions (www.dealertext.com) launched 'NEWCAR', a powerful new web-based application that helps automobile retailers sell more vehicles through mobile marketing. The application allows auto retailers to advertise their vehicles using the best, most memorable vanity common short code possible - NEWCAR (639227) - and enables instant, two-way communication with mobile shoppers.

NEWCAR is an easy-to-use application that gets your message into the hands of your mobile customers wherever they are, instantly, while saving thousands of dollars a month on direct mail, email and telemarketing.

"BDCs and Internet sales departments are finding it increasingly difficult to get potential customers on the phone," said Stan Bradbury, co-founder and President of Dealer Text Solutions. "While many car shoppers want information, they don't want to get bombarded with voice calls and voice mail. The NEWCAR application was designed to reach mobile consumers in a fast and friendly format via text messaging."

The mobile device is rapidly replacing the PC as the primary channel of communication for consumers. Text messaging is the fastest, most reliable and welcome way to reach your guest's mobile device. Over 90% of all text messages are viewed by the recipient and text messaging has the highest response rate off all direct marketing methods.

Dealerships license the NEWCAR web-based software which includes 50 VINcodes - 4-digit numbers that are assigned to vehicles in inventory. Within minutes, each VINcode is set up with a personalized, automated response about that vehicle. When dealerships advertise that vehicle in print or online, they include the 4-digit VINcode and NEWCAR short code and mobile consumers can text in to instantly receive information on vehicles of interest. Mobile consumers can click through to websites for more information or opt-in to receive more information from the sales department.

To see the 'NEWCAR' product in action, send the VINcode '1000' to the short code NEWCAR (639227) for an instant text response.

Autobytel CEO Jim Riesenbach On New Frontiers in Search

In March 1995, Autobytel.com went live as the first online car-buying site. At the time, dealers had concerns about sharing what was, until then, closely guarded pricing information or, worse, being shut out of the vehicle distribution process altogether. But what was good for the consumer ultimately proved to be good for the dealer — and the rise of the automotive Internet paved the way for unprecedented sales and a world of new, low-cost dealership marketing opportunities.
