There's company called "The Next Up" (Home | The Next UpThe Next Up). <br /><br />They offer a great solution to the issues you are having and more importantly allows the salespeople to manage their time better. They can explain it better, so I'll try to do it quickly, the system monitors the floor traffic and alerts the salespeople when it their turn to grab the next up. Because the system secures a salesperson opportunity to get an up it allows the salespeople to make calls and do other tasks as they wait for "The Next Up". For some reason the dealerships I worked at put the BDC at the back of the showroom with no windows, so time sent in there cost you floor traffic. Do you make calls or sit near a window to watch for the up bus? I demo'ed the product some time ago and thought it was an awesome idea and it would have relieved all the problems with trying to grab ups or all the salespeople racing to the shopper's vehicle and jumping on the hood to claim the up. The system also provides real accountability for the floor up traffic the dealership receives and sees which salespeople are going through ups at an alarming rate without closing deals. Some salespeople "pre-qualify" the ups and decide to turn them loose without following the road to the sale and you'll be surprised with who burns through tons of ups. Plus the system secures the salesperson's place in line so that they can properly work with their existing up and not just up jump.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7677190648704075634.post-58614473861641490912014-03-01T11:54:16.663-08:002014-03-01T11:54:16.663-08:00I agree with article 100%.

Let's look another statistic according to J.D. Power study car salesman work only about 1.5 hours out of 10 hour shift. If your dealership has 10 guys that's 80 hours of brain power wasted in a day. That's lots of wasted time. As a sales guy if your are thinking fresh 'ups" is the only way to go then you are wrong. If you are in for long haul you should be more focused on repeat and referrals because you can make more money from those customers and they are easy to sell it to. The dealer group I work for it has couple of dealerships on store has 30+ sales people and they sell about 450-500 cars for month and second store has about 6-7 salespeople and they sell 50-80 cars per month. Both stores are using Sky Up System. It's an electronic "Up" system. As a salesperson I love it because I never miss a "fresh Up" cuz when me turn is coming up i get a text on my phone, I have all the time to do whatever I want. Managers love it cuz they don't have to worry about having bunch of guys standing outside making the dealership look bad and scare away customers.

Say, what about RANDY JOHNSON in a Giants uniform!? That can't be all bad, I don't care how injured Randy might be in actuality... the sight of "The Big Unit" on the mound wearing the black and orange... it HAS to get your blood pumping!
