CDK Adds ShipYourCarNow to Facilitate Home Deliveries
ShipYourCarNow has joined CDK Global’s partner program in an effort to enable more dealers to offer home delivery service to car buyers nationwide.
BOCA RATON, Fla. — Vehicle transportation provider ShipYourCarNow has joined the CDK Global Partner Program, the companies announced. ShipYourCarNow will provide dealers and OEMs with an application that helps them drive their business forward.
With access to the extensive CDK customer base, partners have the opportunity to build solutions impacting nearly every area of business within the modern dealership, ranging from sales to service to data intelligence, said Gavin Kesten, founder and CEO of ShipYourCarNow.
“Joining the CDK Partner Program provides us with the opportunity to offer a large dealer base with an online shipping functionality for their growing virtual customer population,” Kesten said.
The ShipYourCarNow solution was designed to provide dealers with a simple way to show their customers the cost to ship a vehicle and to execute the shipping transaction within the dealer’s website — keeping customers engaged and committed — and send the customer’s information back to the dealer as a sales lead.
“The CDK Partner Program is a powerful network that serves both dealers and their customers,” said Howard Gardner, CDK’s vice president of data services. “We are thrilled ShipYourCarNow has joined our more than 500 partner organizations that provide innovative dealer solutions fully integrated with CDK.”
