I’m Pete Withers a motor trader of 29 years and founder of AutoEngage.
I've helped dozens of motor traders manage and generate thousands of leads and generate 100’s of positive 5 star reviews for their dealerships, whilst reducing their advertising spend.
Having spent 100’s of thousands of pounds and wasted a good amount of my own money on advertising for my own car sites over the years I am super passionate about helping the trade to sell more vehicles without spending huge extra sums on advertising.
Our client had a problem in that they were spending a lot of money on generating leads that then turn into finance approvals. They were getting in the region of 900 approvals a month and their sales team were getting absolutely swamped and unable to keep on top of the flow of approvals. On top of that when they did get to call the approvals people wouldn't answer their phones...
We have worked with this dealer for a while and looked at putting a bespoke system in that
Our client a small used car dealer that sells around 10 cars a month, was aware that they were probably missing out on enquiries directly through their website.

Introduction:
As a motor trader you are more than likely to have a website and chances are you already have some form of web chat. Today we are going to have a look at whether whatsapp business is a good alternative to the more traditional forms of web chat available.
WhatsApp, launched in 2009, has revolutionised the way people communicate globally. As one of the most popular messaging apps in the world, it boasts over 2 billion users worldwide and 30.1 million in the UK who rely on it for a seamless and convenient way to stay connected with friends, family, and colleagues. The app is available on various devices, including Android, iOS, and desktop computers, making it easily accessible for a wide range of users.
The success of WhatsApp can be attributed to several factors, including its simplicity, versatility, and commitment to user privacy. The app is user-friendly, with an intuitive interface that makes it easy for people of all ages and backgrounds to adopt. It offers a variety of communication options, such as one-on-one and group chats, voice and video calls, and file-sharing capabilities, all within a single platform. This versatility has made it a popular choice for both personal and professional use.
Sounds pretty good with that said, thats have a look at the positives !
End-to-end encryption: WhatsApp provides end-to-end encryption for messages, ensuring that only the sender and the recipient can read the content. This enhances privacy and security compared to some web chat platforms that do not provide this feature.
WhatsApp is free to download and use, which makes it an attractive alternative to some paid web chat services.
WhatsApp is available on various platforms, including Android, iOS, and as a desktop application, making it accessible to a wide range of users.
WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world, with over 2 billion users. There are 30.1 million users in the UK or roughly 43% of the population meaning that many of your friends, family, and colleagues may already be using it.
WhatsApp provides a wide range of communication options, such as one-on-one and group chats, voice and video calls, and file-sharing capabilities. This versatility allows users to choose the most suitable communication method for their needs and makes the platform a comprehensive solution for both personal and professional communication.
So all in all it looks pretty good and on the base of the fact it's popular, cheap, easy to use, secure it would seem to be a pretty good alternative to web chat...
This however is where it is easy to confuse theory and reality..
Now have a look at the downsides!
To use WhatsApp, users must have a valid phone number for registration. This requirement may be a barrier for those who prefer anonymity or don't want to share their phone numbers, as it makes it difficult to use the platform without providing personal information.
WhatsApp is owned by Facebook, a company with a history of privacy controversies. Although WhatsApp has end-to-end encryption and operates independently with its own privacy policies, some users may still be concerned about how their personal data is handled and shared within the larger Facebook ecosystem.
WhatsApp is great if you have accessed a website from your phone and have the app installed. However it can be a different story if you have accessed it from a desktop or tablet. You must still have the app installed on these devices and although not too difficult, it does take time to download and install (as we will show in the video below) which doesn't provide for the best user experience.
WhatsApp offers fewer customisation options compared to some other messaging platforms. Users may find the lack of personalisation and control over the chat experience to be a drawback, especially if they prefer a more tailored messaging experience.
As mentioned above WhatsApp has a huge following in the UK (30.1 million users). The problem is, that doesn't mean all of your customers are using it.
The UK population is around 68 million. Now the adult population (your customers) make up around 65% of that figure, so around 44 million. Now let's assume that all 30.1 million WhatsApp users are in that group (they aren't). What happens to the other 14 million or roughly 33% of customers that are not using WhatsApp?
For every 100 people that come to your website, 33 do not have the instant ability to converse with you on whatsapp...
With 98% of the adult population having a mobile phone utilising traditional sms based web chat you then reduce that down to 2%.
Check The Video Below Of What A Customer Has To Go Through To Use WhatsApp If They Are On A Desktop.
WhatsApp is a great product and a very useful tool. However it isn't without limitations and isn't necessarily ideal as a sole means of web chat on a website.
It is a great FREE addition to web chat, giving people the choice if they wish to use it, however as can be seen from the figures above you could be missing out on contact from a prospective customer if that is the only option you offer.
With AutoEngage Inbox that utilises traditional sms and starting at £37 per month, it's not only cheap, but 98% of your prospective customers will still be able to use it!

AutoEngage dealers get results
"Working very well for us. We are always pretty busy and find it hard to f/up with customers on a regular basis. We dont need to worry with AutoEngage as it does it all for us.
"This is first class, only been using a couple of weeks and only at half effort too until my new sales exec gets up to speed, but so far I have sold a car and bought 4 cars, with leads still being created and followed up. I can't wait to get up and running at full speed."
"Since using the autoengage interaction software , engagement has been higher".
"I took 5 applications for finance which I am currently working on. One of which came in yesterday, completed the deal to px her merc and drove off in a new SUV."
Listen I understand what it is like to run a dealership as i've run my own, I've been exactly where you are now. Whilst running my own dealerships I spent £Hundreds of thousands of my own money on advertising and marketing to try and help sell more cars.
Most was good, but there was a lot that was really bad! I bought plenty of stuff that looked great on paper, but left me with nothing apart from a lighter bank balance.
Thats why when I started AutoEngage my #1 priority was to provide a near instant return on investment. I am pleased to say that I have definitely achieved that and always happy to prove it!
The motor trade is a small world that unless you have worked within it, you will never truly understand it. I have used my 29 years of motor trade experience of working in & owning my own car dealerships and put it into AutoEngage.
Quite simply AutoEngage will easily & cost effectively help you sell more cars every month, even in December! By booking sales appointments with your previous customers, generating 5⭐️ google reviews and helping you manage all of your incoming leads turning them into customers.
However I don't expect you to take us at face value and that is why I am always happy to put my money where my mouth is and show you results up front!
