Telematics Advantages for Auto Dealerships




If you're a Dealer Principle or a GM for a dealership, let me ask you a simple question, what if you had the opportunity to add another $400-500 to every copy with a new F&I profit center?

What if you could put OnStar on every vehicle you sell, 1996 or newer, that 84% of your market wants, according to a survey conducted by Accenture, and it is even more robust than Onstar and costs less?

What would you do with a product like that?

Think about this, if GM has sold more than 6 million OnStar units on select vehicles, what could YOU do with a product that was LESS expensive MORE robust, takes less than 10 seconds to install and increased your profitability in Sales, Service, F&I and Parts?

Could you gain a competitive edge by differentiating yourself from your competition by:

*Providing you with a unique asset management tool to monitor your inventory from anywhere at anytime.

*Test drive notification: Help boost your closing percentage by immediately notifying managers when a test drive leaves and returns to the lot.

*Receiving custom notifications as your customers need servicing, before your competition is working on their car.

*Insurance discounts: Insurance companies have expressed willingness to offer rate reductions on policies to auto dealers who use out product on their inventory.

*Improved Service Department Marketing: Receive custom reports when one of your customers needs service. Large direct mail campaigns for your service department are eliminated allowing for better target marketing, which Dan Walker expressed to me is a need.

And in many cases, with floor planning assistance, commercial lenders are willing are willing to advance the product on the flooring line, thereby making front loading affordable.

What Lynx can provide to your customers: (Via their smart phones or internet device)

*Impact notification: Our emergency call center is immediately notified when the vehicle is in a collision offering peace of mind.

*Anti Theft/Early Theft Detection: Know when their car has been started and track its  current location in real time.

*Road-Side Assistance: Battery service, out of gas, flat tire, towing, lock-out service are all part of the package. With our GPS, the service truck already knows the location.

*Low Battery Notification: Text/Email alerts when the car battery goes below 12 volts.

*Real Time Diagnostics: Whether it’s an oil change, engine problem, or regular mileage check up, they will know what their car needs and when it needs it.

*On-Demand Locates: Know where there car is anytime day or night using any internet enabled device.

*Monitoring Teen Drivers: Receive text/email alerts with pin point location to their smart phone when their teen is speeding, coming to abrupt stops, displaying excessive RPM’s, driving without a seat belt or has been in an accident.

*Keep Tabs on Elderly Drivers: Receive notification when elderly loved ones have reached their destination, allowing them to remain independent longer.

*Safety Zones/Geo Fence: Create a virtual boundary around a selected location and be notified when the vehicle enters or exits these locations via text or email.

*Concierge Service: Turn-by-turn directions, locate restaurants and hotels, make reservations and locate business.

*Lifetime Replacement Guarantee: We are an OEM and stand behind the product with free replacement.
