How a Customer-Centric Process Benefits Your Dealership
Is your sales process dealer-centric or customer-centric? Cory says you might want to take a look at the customer-centric process that’s designed to benefit them, not your dealership. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: Our Tip of the Day comes from Cory Mosley. So here’s my question for you today: Is your process customer-centric or dealer-centric? Let me explain what the difference is. The dealer-centric process is a process, which is designed around how you want to internally deliver vehicles.
Reviews vs. Referrals
Referrals are great, but according to Cory Mosley, reviews are just as important. Find out what the difference is and how they impact your dealership’s bottom line. You could find all of our tips from our trainers like Cory Mosley on demand, right here 24/7, on CBT news. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: You know there used to be a time when the referral was more powerful than the review. And that was typically because the review was something that was done by a professional critic of some sort.
How Can LinkedIn Referrals Benefit You?
On today’s Tip of the Day, Cory Mosley explains just how important it is to access and engage your LinkedIn referrals and how you can further build your referral base. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: I talk to salespeople all over the country, and a lot of times they talk to me about how they’re going to build their referral base, how they’re getting more people to come in the market.
Becoming The Chief Influencer
In sales, you can use any word or series of words to describe what it takes to get a commitment and close the sale. Personally, I believe it all circles back to influence. In some people’s minds, the word “influence” stirs up negative thoughts, as does the word “control,” but I’m not sure why. As a manager or leader you must become the chief influencer if you expect your sales team to influence their customers. There are many theories about how to accomplish this.
The CAPI Strategy: Built to Help You Win
Are you wondering what to do next? What can you do this month that you didn’t do last? Cory Mosley has a strategy built to help you win in today’s Tip of the Day. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: So the car business is basically one big Janet Jackson song and by that I mean the 80s hit, “What have you done for me lately?” See chances are if you’re watching this video, that means it’s time for a new month to start. And everything you did last month kinda doesn’t count anymore.
Going the Extra Mile and Following Up
How far are you willing to go when it comes to following up? Cory explains how to go the extra mile, in an effort to reap the benefits of your extra hard work. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: Today, I want to talk to you about the idea of stretching yourself. See, right now, we fall into the mode of whatever our followup cadence is. Do you make one phone call, two phone calls, three phone calls and do follow-up? I find statistically that the extra mile, the extra effort is where the extra deals are.
The Idea of Help vs. Service
Are you helping people just get through the process of buying a car, or are you delivering true service to create a genuine customer experience? Cory explains the difference. VIDEO TRANSCRIPTION: Hi, I’m Cory Mosley and this is your CBT news, sales tip of the day. Tell you I want to talk to you about the idea of help versus service. Here’s the question I ask you in your sales career, are you simply helping people in facilitating the transaction or are you delivering a customer experience in service.
What's In It For You?
What is your “why”, but more importantly than that “what’s in it for you, not your customer?” Cory suggests reversing the action to maximize your opportunities on today’s Tip of the Day. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: I’m Cory Mosley and this is your CBT news sales tip of the day. I would like you to get in the frame of mind of reversing the idea of what’s in it for them. See a lot of people train on that concept and rightly so. There’s certainly value to it. What’s in it for your customer?
