There are a lot of dealerships to choose from, and advertising can make your choice even harder. In 2017 alone, according to Statista, the automotive industry invested $9.94 million in advertising. How do you know which dealerships are the right choice? You look for these five qualities.
1. Large Selection of Inventory
The right dealerships want to provide every consumer with a great lineup of options for their next vehicle. They offer a wide range of inventory to select from and ensure that their inventory comes in at different price points to meet different budgets. A large inventory is a good sign that you are working with a dealership committed to providing great options.
2. Fair Pricing
The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) is only a suggestion. The right dealership is a dealership that is open to negotiation depending on your driving history, credit history, and more. A dealership with a non-negotiable policy may not be the right dealership for you. Negotiating prices is part of the fun of buying a new vehicle. It is also an easy way to save money on your new car.
3. Reputation Speaks Volumes
A dealership with a strong reputation for providing top-notch customer service is always a good choice. A positive reputation is a must-have quality. Check out customer dealership reviews to get a feel for what others have experienced. A strong commitment to customer care before, during, and after the sale is a quality that should get your attention.
4. Added Value Care
Some dealerships go above and beyond and offer perks or added value for doing business with them. For example, some dealers will offer free oil changes for the first three years you own the car. That is an added value saving. A great quality to look for is the added value services or perks the dealership offers.
5. They Don't Upsell or Use Sales Pressure
The right dealership will want you to buy a vehicle you can afford. They will not upsell you out of your budget or pressure you to make a purchase. The right dealership provides you with information, financing options, and support throughout the sales experience, but they do not push you to make a decision that makes you uncomfortable.
