Mobile Collect Announces Low Cost Automotive Dealer Text Messaging Solution

Livonia, Michigan, March 8, 2005

Mobile Collect today unveiled a revolutionary suite of low-cost text messaging products specifically designed for automotive dealers. Like the Internet, text messaging will become a driving force in automotive dealership sales and service...

“Generation Y” represents a significant percentage of today’s consumer population. They are young, mobile, technically savvy, and the majority were raised using I.M. and text messaging. There are over 172 million mobile phone subscribers in the U.S., a number that is growing rapidly. Text messaging is the most common form of data service currently available on mobile devices with over 2 billion text messages sent on a daily basis.

Mobile Collect now brings the benefits of text messaging technology to automotive dealers and their customers. Mobile Collect offers ground-breaking solutions across all areas of dealer operations — new and used vehicle sales, parts and service, customer relationship management, and more. Mobile Collect’s innovative message options can improve customer service and increase dealership sales with minimal investment.

Now service managers can quickly and efficiently contact a customer to discuss service options. The direct saving in yearly phone cost pay for the system several times over. Text message options available include service interval reminders, after hours support, download of vehicle specifications and marketing materials, vehicle repair status, and service scheduling to mention a few.

With Mobile Collect’s Web interface, dealership personnel do not have to know how to use text messaging to communicate with customers and prospects. Users simply log into Mobile Collect’s web based Mobile Message Center and click and type just like any other web site. After logging into the system they can define automatic actions, send messages to mobile phones, view all existing text message dialogue history, and more.

Alan Berrey President/CEO of Mobile Collect LLC stated “in the next two years business solutions based on text messaging will be as common place as web sites for auto dealers are today. Text messaging solutions will dramatically decrease dealer costs and improve customer relationships.”
