Wayne A Youngs and Associates, Inc.:

Current World of Dealer Management Systems

Webinar Description:

In today’s expense-conscious world, car dealerships are NO EXCEPTION. One of the largest monthly expenses in dealerships is the Dealer Management System bill, along with added 3rd party (best of breeds products/ applications) and the dreaded DMS integration fees.

When Wayne A. Youngs & Associates do an on-site Dealership evaluation you would be amazed how many times they find Dealerships paying for products that do the same thing or paying for applications they don’t even use because they work poorly with their processes. 

That is why Wayne A. Youngs & Associates recommends to their clients to either have them do a yearly DMS review or at least do an internal DMS/application review.

This webinar will show the differences between the DMS providers in the marketplace, explain their strengths and weaknesses, and earmark internal audit processes to protect against rising bills.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to better evaluate the existing players in the market place
  • Not all products are for every dealership --understanding processes
  • Get a fair price from the vendor with addendum protections for the contract life
  • Understanding that add -on contracts have to be co-terminus to the original contract
  • How not to be fearful of systems changes in today's marketplace
