LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 1, 2009) – Cross-Sell, the leading provider of market analysis reports for automotive dealers nationwide and a division of Dominion Dealer Solutions, today announced a partnership with sister companies Dealer Specialties and XIGroup to provide its Snap-Shot report to their customers.
Dealer Specialties currently offers Cross-Sell’s monthly Snap-Shot report as part of The Analyzer, its newest inventory management tool. The Analyzer is an intuitive pricing, analytics, and decision tool that enables dealers to select the right inventory to carry on the lot and advertise online. The Snap-Shot report provides Analyzer users a consolidated overview of their market and highlights critical sales statistics such as the top-selling vehicle makes, models, segments and zip codes.
“The monthly Snap-Shot report is a vital component of The Analyzer,” said Glen Garvin, general manager of Dealer Specialties Web Services. “Incorporating the report into The Analyzer makes it easy for our customers to quickly identify market trends and make important inventory and pricing decisions.”
XIGroup includes the Snap-Shot report as part of the website management tool its customers use to manage their dealership website.
“The Snap-Shot report is a valuable resource that tells our customers exactly what vehicles they should feature on their website based on the current sales trends in their market,” said Joe High, general manager of XIGroup.
Currently available for XIGroup’s Maryland customers, the Snap-Shot report will soon be available to all XIGroup customers operating in one of the 27 states where Cross-Sell acquires data. For Dealer Specialties customers, The Analyzer is available as an upgrade to dealers participating in the Platinum Package.
