Roosevelt Gist commented on J.R. Batchelor's blog post The Transition From The Sales Floor To The Finance DeptRoosevelt Gist commented on J.R. Batchelor's blog post The Transition From The Sales Floor To The Finance Dept"I was recently in a Nissan dealer with a friend of mine that bought a Murano. After the sale the F&I manager did come out and greet us. But, we were still left to mingle in the showroom for approximately 30 minutes."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Joe Webb's blog post The Addendum Crisis"As a customer and required to purchase the unwanted addendum why didn't you just leave the dealership? Sounds like you ordered your car. Another dealer could have satisfied your purchase request. Just walk out."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Jim Radogna's blog post 10 Things to Consider Before You Blow Off the Idea of Transparency"Agree 100%. Lack of transparency is stressfull selling...not knowing if the total deal and/or parts will unwind."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Sean V. Bradley's blog post Make Money Mondays With Sean V. Bradley - Do You Know The #1 Reason Why People Don't Buy?"I agree. This fact shows a lack of communication with the customer. Listen, probe, listen, probe,listen. By now your dealership should have a check list of questions that must be asked of every walk-in without making it seem like an interrogation."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Ralph Paglia's blog post Can Dealers Use Targeted Online Discounts To Develop Better Customer Relationships?"Timely article. We are reading for release an easy to use product that does that for dealers. Stay tuned."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Joe Schwartz's blog post Top 10 Ways to Optimize Your Business YouTube Channel [Infograpghic]"Good information."

Roosevelt Gist commented on Sean V. Bradley's blog post Secrets To Being Successful In Automotive Internet Sales / Business Development - "Relationship Selling""If managers would give salesperson the freedom to be more human you would see far more relationship sales."
Roosevelt Gist commented on J.D. Rucker's blog post 6 Types of Content to Make Your Website POP"Is there an ideal length for videos and word count for articles to make site pop?"
Roosevelt Gist commented on Chris Branum's blog post Give Your Service & Parts Customers Quality Video in 2013"Combine videos with coupons for customer pay services and use your free wifi to distribute for even more service and parts sales. Let me show you how. Call 571-235-6538."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Keith Shetterly's blog post The Good Ol’ Boy Network (GOBN) Limits Dealer Success"Lack of diversity limits growth."
Roosevelt Gist commented on Chris Branum's blog post Give Your Service & Parts Customers Quality Video in 2013"How to videos are the most popular."
Roosevelt Gist commented on J.D. Rucker's blog post Reputation Management Starts at the Dealership"A "Thank you for visiting and call me if you have any questions or concerns" video by GM or Owner sent to every person that makes a dealership employee contact will defuse bad reviews. The videos are very easy too do and very effective…"
Roosevelt Gist commented on Ralph Paglia's group Content Marketing"@Ralph Understood. Meant content marketing is a derivative of detailed product descriptions without any purchase requirements and blogging is a derivative of email with more features. Remember the BBS system, showing my age, before the Internet?"
