Learn the skills you need to transform your dealership!
This “Smart Leadership Tactics” report shows how your dealership can become a valuable educational resource for your customers, and it’s FREE!
Dear Rural Lifestyle Dealer,
Dealerships like yours realize the changing face of selling in the digital age. Your long-term growth will come from focusing on customer needs and communication, not just from pushing products.
For instance, your customers can get information about equipment on your website, but they can’t always figure out how your solution fits their needs. Many have already read product specifications online before entering your store. If they’re given that same information again when they arrive, you could lose the sale.
Product evangelism won’t attract customers, but asking questions and listening actively will, says Mike Wiles, co-owner of EDMforSales.com and host of AskTractorMike.com.
We’ve compiled advice from Wiles along with Bob Clements of Bob Clements Intl., Lynn of Woolf of Rural Lifestyle Dealer & Tim Berman of Big Red’s Equipment Sales into a special E-book download – and it’s absolutely FREE!

Nothing builds communities better than in-person and live interactions with customers!
Consumers now expect their buyer journey to be entirely frictionless and immediate, regardless of the industry or product in question. However, don’t mistake reducing friction with limiting interaction with the customer.
Many lifestyle customers don’t have any prior equipment handling experience, so it’s important for your dealership’s staff to educate them about the safe use of products, both from an ethical and liability standpoint.
As a dealership manager, you should make sure that your salespeople maintain after-sales contact with the goal of being viewed as a valuable educational resource by customers.
It’s also important that the education process continues after the sale. As customers become more comfortable with their machine, they’ll see more possibilities for using it and be potential purchasers of additional attachments and parts.
