Car Dealership Mobile App by Mobile Dealer Helps L.A.N.D Auto Group to Increase Service Appointments and Retention

Ottawa, Ontario – March 6, 2018 – Mobile Dealer, the leading car dealership mobile app provider that grows sales, service, parts and F&I revenue for auto groups, announced today a partnership with L.A.N.D Auto Group to launch car dealership mobile app & geo-fencing solution for their Lacombe Ford and Drayton Valley Ford dealerships.

The partnership provides L.A.N.D Auto Group with a branded mobile customer engagement app that is purpose-built to increase auto & service sales and improve loyalty & referrals. Customers and shoppers simply download the free dealer-branded mobile app to their smartphone. One-to-one mobile engagement empowers the dealership to deliver a personalized customer experience with innovative features such as roadside assistance, test drive scheduling, mobile offers, customer referral programs and digital loyalty reward programs. In addition, customers can schedule a service appointment and access service history records with the click of a button. Full access to the dealership’s inventory gives shoppers the opportunity to research car models, and access information about available F&I options.

“We had an app with another developer for the last few years and loved the concept of a dealership app to communicate with our customers effectively. However, as a forward-thinking group, we are always trying to improve and stay open to other opportunities,” said Kelsey Bilyk, Marketing Director, L.A.N.D Auto Group. “When Mobile Dealer reached out with their product it was a no-brainer to make the switch. The design and user interface is sleek, easy to use and we can seamlessly make real-time updates and changes in house. But more importantly it will serve our customers better by integrating current manufacturer apps within our own dealership app; it’s a one-stop-spot for everything vehicle on your phone. By directly connecting through our customers’ smartphones, we’re delivering engaging experiences for every customer we serve in a meaningful way that improves their ownership experience. Plus, the price is very affordable and we feel the product developed and offered by Mobile Dealer is best in the industry.”

“L.A.N.D Auto Group is among the leaders at the forefront of embracing geo-fencing and a car dealership mobile app to enhance their customer experience,” said Tony della Busa, President & CEO, Mobile Dealer. “In a connected, service-driven auto industry, ‘mobile customer engagement’ — the ability to attract, acquire, nurture, retain and grow long-term customer relationships – is the key to growth. We’re excited to work with L.A.N.D Auto Group and take their growth to the next level.”
