Automotive marketing agencies are essential to any dealership or car lot’s success. It’s your job to find qualified buyers for clients and trace the entire customer journey in order to build the perfect campaign. Your mission to create the initial point of contact between a prospective car buyer and the businesses that you represent is important, but is there anything that makes you unique?
Marketing agencies, especially in the automotive industry, are a dime a dozen. New marketing companies come and go regularly and your business must find a way to stand out. Botsplash can provide solutions that differentiate you from the rest of the competition. Our automotive marketing agency partnership opportunities give your business a competitive advantage and can enhance your product offering. One of the main ways to do this is by offering web chat.
The Botsplash Web Chat Solution
Most dealerships that are serious about their customer communication model will already have chat on their website. These chat providers are typically a budget chat provided to them by their CRM, web designer, or manufacturer for little to no cost. They do the trick for basic conversations but provide a poor user experience outside of initial engagement. This is where Botsplash comes in. Our entire model focuses on providing an effective communication experience for both the agent and the customer. Your clients can benefit from features such as canned messages, scheduled send, multi-agent chat, document sharing, and more.
Our web chat solutions are unique as they come in 3 different variations to best suit the pages that they live on.
Movable Chat
Movable chat allows customers to drag and move the page around on the page. It’s common, especially in automotive, that you will find a chat box to be in the way. Dealership websites are filled with inventory pictures, descriptions, and CTA’s. The ability to move and rearrange a chat on the page can be very convenient and provide a positive user experience while facilitating uninterrupted engagement.
Inline Chat
Occasionally it’s appropriate to fix the web chat to the page to encourage engagement. Giving the option to move a chat bot out of the way can cause the user to forget about it and move on. This form of chat is excellent for collecting form-based information and feedback. Dealerships can use this form of web chat to schedule a sales or service appointment or offer assistance.
On-Demand Chat
On-demand chat is a great option for pages that contain a lot of information or images. Sometimes you don’t want the chat box to block content or distract from important aspects of a webpage, so having a button that summons the chat is the best option. Providing a simple CTA to have the option to chat with a representative is a powerful solution as it provides the best of both worlds and keeps your agents available for any questions.
