Progressive dealers tap into seamless solutions.

“I find a lot of value in the data in TrafficView as we can see the defections and get an idea where these customers are going. Also, the 90 Days to Sale shows us the consumer journey. From day 7 until the end and we can see when defections are taking place and use this with our marketing efforts.”

“Traffic View allows us to quickly find potential blind spots at a glance.  It maximizes time spent in reviewing the data, organizes and creates helpful filters seamlessly to allow coaching opportunities. I typically forward the screen shots from the monthly traffic view to our team so they can see the scoreboard and know that the management team is routinely looking for growth opportunities and focused on the team members that need help.”
