All rights reserved. | A business unit of IHS Markit™ The BDC Amid rapid digitalization of the buyer journey, the BDC offers a natural solution for dealers to get ahead of customers and pre-owned acquisition opportunities. When equipped with the right tools and technology, your BDC can streamline pre-owned acquisitions by identifying, prioritizing and engaging leads with profitable trade-ins. Ensure your BDC can: � Analyze data from your dealership's DMS, CRM, sales platform and other datasets to identify customers driving in-demand makes or models that represent acquisition opportunities. � Identify customers: � Who are over their lease mileage or warranty. � Who declined repairs. � Who have equity. � Leverage insights from your website and other digital platforms to identify pre-purchasing behaviors, such as using your dealership's online trade-in evaluator. � Engage prospects with personalized messaging and tailored offers that encourage buybacks or trades, such as a complimentary equity analysis. Service Team With detailed customer and vehicle insights, the service drive provides the perfect opportunity for dealers to acquire in-demand, high-quality trades – as well as the ability to double down by selling a customer a replacement vehicle. In addition to ensuring your service team is in-the-know regarding in-demand makes and models to identify potentially profitable buy-backs and trades, your service team should: � Leverage service data and customer insights to identify acquisition opportunities both ahead of appointments and in the service drive. � Review upcoming service appointments to identify any customers driving in-demand makes and models. � Identify acquisition opportunities, such as those who are out of warranty, over their lease mileage or could benefit from a new product design. � Engage customers ahead of their appointment with a personalized offer to maximize engagement. � After their service appointment, follow up with prospects to ensure satisfaction and review the offer. � Leverage service notifications to stay in contact with service customers between appointments to promote loyalty and prevent customer defection.
