How does Remoto App Bring Competitive Advantages to Motor Dealers & Drivers

The business of selling and maintaining cars now lives on the smartphone. Car dealers who do not have their own mobile app are in danger of being left behind. Consumers are demanding one-touch service from their chosen motor dealer. If they can’t get it, they may take their business elsewhere.

If these statements cause alarm, don’t panic. At Bright Box, we’ve developed an end-to-end mobile solution to help dealers make sales, manage maintenance and strengthen their relationship with their customers. The Remoto app is available for motor dealerships to use as their own, ready-made mobile app — fully-tested and already in use by more than 2,000 connected dealerships worldwide.

In less than an hour, dealers can have their own branded mobile app, ready for their customers to download and enjoy.

Making life better for automotive dealerships

The Remoto app is packed with features to help motor dealers improve efficiency and build business.

It is a ready-made, white label solution available for dealers to tap into immediately. Remoto provides the back end. Dealers can add their own branding, branch locations, special promotions and more. Even though the app comes from Remoto, dealers can make it look unique to their business to maintain their brand’s link with the customer.

It can help dealers achieve their primary goal of increasing revenue. Dealers can integrate an online shop into their mobile app, giving them the ability to sell accessories without having to meet the customer. This generates additional income and reduces operational costs. Dealers can also offer targeted promotions to customers, which helps boost revenue and assists in inventory management.

The Remoto app helps dealers solidify their relationship with their customers by enhancing service and learning which special offers or promotions each driver is likely to be most interested in.

Perhaps one of the most important features for dealers is that they can list all their locations on the app with map coordinates, opening hours and a list of team members. This makes it much easier for customers to find dealerships and also to call their local team directly using the app. All of these features create a closer connection between the dealer and the customer, boosting customer satisfaction and retention.

Finally, the Remoto app helps dealers with their maintenance operations. In-car diagnostics help spot small problems before they become big ones. It helps to save time and effort for the dealer’s maintenance team.

Remoto app — benefits for drivers

It’s not only motor dealers that can find benefits from the Remoto app. When customers download the app to their smartphones, their experience of car ownership dramatically improves.

With Remoto’s Remote Car Control feature, drivers can unlock their car, start the engine and plot their route, all from their phone. Remoto’s Vehicle Health-Check feature lets drivers request service and maintenance from their dealer. It also monitors driving behavior, bringing peace of mind when drivers lend their car to other people. In the future, this kind of information will help consumers achieve lower insurance premiums.

The Remoto app also increases driver safety, with a feature that analyses impact in the event of a crash, automatically calling the emergency services.

Finally, drivers can also follow dealers’ news and promotions in the Remoto app feed, as well as receive personalized offers from their dealer. They can even integrate their Remoto app with their social media feeds.

Other businesses, such as OEMs, National Sales Companies, car sharing, fleet and leasing companies can also use the Remoto app to their advantage.
