It takes a lot to keep a successful automotive dealership sales floor running, looking fresh and ready to be filled with customers. For a dealer sales floor to both look great and run smoothly, it needs to be well-organized as well as marked, and that means using auto supplies to keep a system in place. Car dealers should keep offices stocked with essential sales floor supplies in order to be well-prepared. The following five items are some of the most commonly used or important sales supplies, critical for maintaining important documentation, keeping inventory organized, incentivizing staff and - one of the most important task of a car sales lot - for drawing attention!
Windshield & Mirror Sales Message Hang Tags & Stickers
Interior front windshield stickers tell potential customers important information about vehicles on the sales floor, even from the road. Most window shield stickers are used to show car model year information, but they can also be used to call attention to other vehicle features, such as mileage info, CARFAX, 4 wheel drive and many others. Similarly, mirror hang tags are colorful paper tags hung in vehicle rearview mirrors calling attention to selling points, such as price, $ per month, sales pricing, financing information, clearance and others. Between windshield stickers and mirror hang tags, customers can know everything they need to make a sale at a glance.
Odometer Disclosure Statement
Federal law and, in many cases, state law also, requires the seller of a vehicle to complete an Odometer Disclosure Statement at the time of the car's sale, unless the vehicle is older than ten years old. The odometer information on the form must be accurate, and it must be signed by both the buyer and the seller. car dealerships need to protect themselves from liability by completing odometer disclosure statements thoroughly at every deal, which means keeping plenty of them on hand in the sales department!
