How to Have a Successful Sales Event August 04 2015

Those in the know; know that successful sales events require a lot of planning! It’s important that your sales team is on board with your concept and understands the expectations required of them. It all starts with a sales team meeting to pass along pertinent information about an upcoming sale and to boost your employee’s attitudes and confidence!

Make sure you have plenty of time to display the marketing material from Sale in a Box: start at least the day before the sale is to kick off! Getting your showroom floor sales ready requires commitment from your sales team to create an environment that’s visible both inside and outside of the showroom floor. If your employees say ‘wow’ to the concept and promotional materials, your customers are sure to follow!

Banners can be hung in the showroom floor or on the front of your building to advertise your sale and highlight the cars on the showroom floor! Banners from Sale in a Box are bright, large, and easily visible from both inside and outside the dealership. Hang the banners between two sturdy fixtures and if you’re hanging them outside or in a windy area, make sure to follow the directions to ensure airflow!

If you’ve got an extra special vehicle on display, pennant string is an easy and affordable way to not only showcase the vehicle but to create a barrier so customers know they aren’t to touch the car! Our pennants are crafted to create an eye-catching display and can be used inside or outside. Get one of our starter kits and get started today!

Does Feeling Make Dealership Marketing Matter? December 01 2014

In this ADS blog, we talk about why marketing is about feeling. Often in the automotive marketing world, we forget that desperation to make the sale can spill over into what the customer sees or feels about us. If customers don’t feel they’re really getting top-level treatment when they visit your dealership, you’re going to lose the sale before you even get the process started.

Feeling is a key ingredient in car sales. There are a variety of factors that can help your clients get that feel good vibe from you, increasing trust and the possibility your customer interactions could end up as a sale.

One big one to consider is community involvement. When you’re a visible presence in your community, the way people feel about you changes. You’re seen at events. Your brand is known. Your commercials, emails, mailers and other advertisements become more quickly recognizable. It’s a great way to make sure your dealership stays stuck in the minds of the public.

Additionally, a car dealership that doesn’t have a good rep in the community simply won’t be around for long. This is why branding and imagery are important – having the right images available for customers to recognize you or associate you with savings, value and a dealer they can rely on is highly meaningful.

The take-home: Marketing materials aren’t just about making the sale and they aren’t just about decorating your dealership. Showing unity with community goals is possible when you set yourself apart with the right branding and imagery. Maybe it’s time to take stock of your imagery and discover how it makes your marketing matter to the right customers.

Car Dealership Marketing the Right Way November 21 2014

You want to get customers engaged and excited – of course you do. That’s a big part of the experience that makes sure you’re selling cars and hitting your numbers. Excitement comes not only from the enthusiasm of your work force – particularly your sales team – but also from the kind of stage you set when customers enter your business and prepare to buy from you.

We create sales collateral for dealerships because we know this business. The people behind the screens here at Sale-In-A-Box are seasoned veterans when it comes to car sales. Many of us have been automotive salespeople in the past, so we know what it takes to create the attitudes that will sell cars. With the right environment, the sales you’re looking for can happen.

Setting the Stage

Take a look at our “How It Works” section to get some ideas on where to hang the collateral you purchase from us. In addition to placement, timing is one key point we focus on throughout our promotional emails. It’s key to make sure your posters, banners, balloons and pennant flags are hung up at the appropriate time. If you don’t have a marketing calendar ready, it makes sense to sit down, plans things out and purchase your kits well before those sales get started.

We’d be glad to help you create your own box or design custom marketing materials for you. It’s all part of the service we provide – and with our create-your-own-box deal, you can customize your experience so you’ll get exactly what you need.
