The Dealer 5 | September 25, 2014

Dealer news from WardsAuto and around the web.

Welcome to The  WardsAuto Dealer 5  for Tuesday, September 23. To start your day, we've put together important items from WardsAuto.com and across the Internet. So let's go:

1. 


If a customer declines your recommended services, don’t take it personal. But stay in touch. Our fixed-ops expert tells what and what not to do.
 

2. 


Cadillac is packing up and heading to a trendy Manhattan district to bask in hipness and spit out a marketing strategy that conquers competitors. We've seen this movie before.
 

3. 

A new study indicates some consumers calling dealerships are lucky the phone is even answered. Ouch. The moral of the story: People call dealers to buy things, not chit-chat.  
 

4. 


Dealers in China do what they want, without thinking much of the effect on the brand image. If a U.S. Honda dealer held an event like this one, American Honda might be on the phone.
 

5. 


Name a business where expensive inventory is kept outside in the open. Hint: It's not jewelry stores. Three San Francisco dealerships got ripped off big time by nighttime thieves with lavish tastes in cars.
