Sell Value Added Products Online

Help protect your customers vehicles by offering them recommended products online, such as GAP, paint protection and tyre & alloy.

One of the most effective strategies for achieving this is by leveraging online systems to sell general insurance products. This approach not only enhances customer convenience but also drives significant revenue growth for dealerships.

 

The Digital Advantage

Online sales of insurance products offer a multitude of benefits. By utilising our VAP Boost tool, dealerships can extend their reach beyond the showroom, allowing customers to explore and purchase these products at their own pace.

This self-serve model empowers consumers to make informed decisions, ultimately leading to higher conversion rates and increased customer loyalty.

 

Enhancing Customer Experience with Comprehensive Coverage

General insurance products provide essential coverage that can protect both the vehicle and the owner. These products include GAP, extended warranties, tyre and alloy insurance, and more. By offering these products online, dealerships can provide a seamless and convenient purchasing experience, ensuring customers have access to the coverage they need without the pressure of in-person sales interactions.

 

Driving Revenue with Strategic Product Offerings

Selling insurance products online allows dealerships to showcase valuable offers that truly benefit the customer. This approach gives customers the freedom to make timely decisions at their own pace, without feeling rushed. Meanwhile, your staff can concentrate on what they do best – selling vehicles. This strategic focus not only enhances customer satisfaction but also boosts your dealership’s revenue.

 

Seamless Integration and Compliance

The entire purchase process, from product selection to payment, is integrated with the dealership’s existing payment system, making it convenient for consumers to complete their transactions online. Additionally, automated, branded emails engage customers with timely recommendations, ensuring they are aware of the available and relevant product options.

These emails are sent to customers who have been recommended products through The ACL Hub compliance system, ensuring a targeted and compliant approach. Customers can self-serve with your product provider, making the process easy and efficient. We are integrated with all main product providers, making it simple to bring this process online.

 

What should you do?

Embracing the digital shift to online sales of general insurance products represents a significant opportunity for dealerships to enhance profitability and customer satisfaction. By leveraging systems like VAP Boost, dealerships can provide a convenient, compliant, and efficient way to offer essential coverage to customers, ensuring they are protected in various ways.
