What is CRM for car dealerships?
A car dealership doesn't often sell to the same customer, but maintains the car for years. CRM for car dealerships follows leads from used-car sites, plans test drives and quotes and sends maintenance reminders, so you hold on to both sales opportunities and workshop revenue.
Unlike a general CRM, this supports the automotive customer journey: leads from vehicle portals, test drives, quotes and maintenance reminders, linked to the DMS.
Key features of a CRM for car dealerships
- Leads from used-car sites and showroom
- Follow up test drives and quotes
- Maintenance and MOT reminders
- Customer and vehicle history
- Link with the dealer management system
At a car dealership, the value sits in follow-up: a missed lead or forgotten service is lost revenue. Good software keeps sales and service contact together, so you retain customers across the whole life of the car. When comparing, what matters is lead follow-up, maintenance reminders and DMS links.
What to look for when choosing a CRM for car dealerships
- whether it follows up both leads and maintenance
- references from comparable car dealerships
- maintenance and MOT reminders
- link with your dealer management system
- implementation time, training and vendor support
