Power your Vehicle Marketing.
The measure of successful inventory management is not what you sold, it's what you could
have sold. Over 60% of new car buyers in the US go online to research their purchase, and
your inventory needs to be there, accurate and complete. The InfoIQ™ Vehicle Inventory
Data Solution transforms and enhances raw DMS data into transactable, marketable, robust
information. DMi feeds the enhanced data to OEM and Internet Portals. Increase the exposure
of your inventory and your online conversion rate with richer, more accurate inventory
information. Decrease the time and resources devoted to moving slow, aged inventory.
The Data to Drive effective Sales and Marketing.
Does your marketing success depend on timely, accurate, comprehensive vehicle sales and
finance data? The InfoIQ™ Vehicle Sales Data Solution provides unparalleled insight
into data on vehicle sales, financing, and insurance. Whether it's used to drive Incentive
Programs, Customer Relationship Management initiatives, Direct Marketing programs, Dealer
Performance Analysis, or your next idea, the data is the key. The automotive marketplace is
fiercely competitive and there's a lot riding on the success of your initiatives.
Drive the Bottom Line.
Vehicle pricing and incentives have a direct effect on your bottom line, requiring the
most data available to support you in making the best decisions in a competitive
marketplace. DMi's InfoIQ™ Vehicle Sales Journal Data Solution provides
accounting data from the dealer's bottom line, directly from the dealer general
ledger. Reconciled with Sales and Finance Department data by dealership accounting,
this is the complete data concerning vehicle costs and profit.
Steer customers to your Service Department.
The InfoIQ™ Vehicle Service Data Solution is specifically designed to facilitate
programs such as Maintenance Reminders, Customer Satisfaction Surveys, Personalized
Service Home Pages, Marketing Programs, and Performance Analysis. DMi understands that a
busy, efficiently-run service department is the backbone of dealership profitability.
DMi's Vehicle Service Data Solution puts the data to work for you, enabling you to tailor
marketing and follow-up messages to individual customers, improving response rates and
customer loyalty.
The Power of Detailed Inventory Data.
A successful parts management program keeps OEM and dealer inventory costs low and
service levels high. Without accurate data on parts inventory and performance, a parts
department can freeze up crucial dealership capital. The InfoIQ™ Parts Inventory
Data Solution facilitates indentification and tracking of parts availability at
individual automotive dealerships. This complete, detailed data can be used to fuel parts
locators, increase sales, and drive parts procurement.
Fuel your Parts Marketing.
Successfully manage manufacturer parts marketing and incentive programs with DMi's
InfoIQ™ Parts Invoice Data Solution. Access complete, robust data on all parts
sales transactions, whether sold over the counter, with a repair order, or through a
body shop. Specifically designed to identify wholesale versus retail transactions,
InfoIQ™ Parts Invoice Data Solution extracts the relevant data you need to best
monitor sales volume and profitability, evaluate parts marketing campaign effectiveness,
and empower dealer wholesale incentive programs.
Tune your Parts Performance.
Will you sell more brake pads this year? Fewer rotors? How did the last hail or
snow storm affect sheet metal sales? How will the next? DMi's Parts Demand Data
Solution gives you the data you need to analyze patterns in demand and identify
and predict trends. This targeted information facilitates accurate analysis, so you
don't miss a sales opportunity or freeze up capital carrying excess inventory. DMi's
Parts Demand Data Solution captures and validates historical parts sales - both actual
and lost. Accurate trend analysis translates into successful planned inventory,
allowing you to stock the parts that anticipate your customer's needs, increase revenue
and decrease operating capital.
Tune your Stock Levels.
Changes in demand, aggressive competition, and the constant challenge to reduce
operating capital require continuous reviews of recommended stocking levels. DMi's
InfoIQ™ Parts Stocking Data Solution provides you the data you need to best
evaluate your stock settings. DMi extracts and processes dealer stocking data from
the Dealer Management System (DMS), including stocking, lifecycle, and demand
information. Parameters within the DMS produce recommendations for a part's lifecycle
in dealership inventory, measuring part demand, and determining if and when to reorder
parts. This valuable, up-to-date information can be analyzed to better manage the
parts supply chain, to reduce operating capital for both the retail dealer and the
manufacturer.
