New Accessories Sales Process Generates Dramatic Revenue Growth and Cross-Dealership Benefits for North Carolina Dealership

Case study from AddOnAuto demonstrates how cutting-edge accessories process drove accessories revenue from $0 to $150,000 per month, provided new vehicle sales training process, and increased F&I product sales for Scott Clark’s Toyota

 

AddOnAuto (AOA) the in-store accessories solution that is changing the way accessories are bought and sold in dealerships, released a case study today revealing how North Carolina auto dealership Scott Clark’s Toyota, leveraged a new accessories sales tool and process to provide a better consumer experience, greater conversion and revenue, and improved F&I sales — all while educating rookie sales representatives on a better way to sell vehicles.

“Through the example of Scott Clark’s Toyota, this case study reveals that not only are the old obstacles to successful accessories sales disappearing, but implementing the right process drives benefits far beyond accessory sales, and to improved F&I sales and higher customer retention,” said Sidney Haider, President of AddOnAuto. “As Scott Clark’s Toyota discovered, the time is ripe for accessories sales – if done right – and can not only boost revenue and profits, but can also offer surprising results in other areas of the dealership.”

Scott Clark’s Toyota has been in business since 1985, and sells approximately 450-475 new and used vehicles a month. Prior to implementing their ground-breaking accessories sales process, Scott Clark’s Toyota made zero dollars in monthly sales of vehicle accessories. So, in 2010, the dealership made the decision to focus on this revenue stream, and implemented AddOnAuto (AOA), an in-store digital sales tool that allows customers to virtually add or remove car accessories and instantly view them on their vehicle of choice, along with a cross-dealership process that integrated department buy-in from new car sales to F&I. The new process drove dealership vehicle accessories sales growth from $0 to $150,000 per month, with an average of approximately $300 in vehicle accessory sales per transaction.  And perhaps one of the most important benefits of the dealership’s new focus on accessories sales is that, rather than seeing a decline in F&I product sales (one of the traditional obstacles to accessories sales implementation), F&I revenue actually increased.

Not only did the dealership increase accessories sales exponentially, they also discovered that the program could also be leveraged as a powerful training tool for new employees who previously had little to no car sales experience. By designating these new employees as “accessories consultants”, and assigning them to the accessories sales station, after just one month of giving each and every customer a 5-10 minute presentation on accessories (using AOA’s web-based visualization tool), and helping customers accessorize their new vehicle on screen, these employees became experts on the dealership’s main product – the cars themselves. This granular vehicle knowledge, combined with their experience as customer consultants, translated into valuable vehicle sales expertise.

“The decision to focus on accessories sales was a logical one because we wanted to be the place that our customers associate with all their service and repair needs,” said Chris Cady, Managing Partner of Scott Clark’s Toyota. “The use of AOA creates a flawless approach to accessory sales. Customers can manipulate and manage their virtual dream car, in an apple-store like environment, all while waiting for their vehicle financing – it’s genius.”
