Learn about the newest version of
IDS Astra CRM and how it can help you drive more revenue in your RV or Marine dealership and develop more loyal and long-lasting relationships with your customer base.
Watch this webinar today and learn how to…
- Automate, Increase Engagement & Drive Revenue with Triggered Email Messages: An easy, and often overlooked, way to expand an email marketing program is to include trigger-based email campaigns. Since these are activated by specific actions and behavior of your customer, your email marketing will be more relevant, more effective and ultimately increase revenues.
- Accurately measure and improve salesperson productivity by automating Daily Traffic log: Most dealerships currently track their daily sales floor traffic on paper. This creates additional overhead on the dealership and may lead to inaccurate reports. Having an integrated system to track the daily traffic and analyze the data accurately will enable the sales managers to make the right decisions and improve sales.
