What is the role of CRM in the automotive industry? 

From rising customer expectations to constantly changing supply chains, the automotive industry comes with its own set of unique challenges. In order to make a mark in today's automotive sector, industries need a CRM that can manage and organize an ever-growing number of leads, harness the power of artificial intelligence to reach the right customer with the right context, provide customers with highly personalized brand experiences, and utilize self-service models to keep end users updated about the products and services on offer.

Key features automotive companies should look for in a CRM

  • Single system omnichannel communication

Engage with your audience on social media

Connect your social media handles on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram to monitor conversations about your brand, and jump in to engage with prospects where your presence is needed. Zoho CRM lets you search for relevant keywords and shows if accounts using those keywords are your customers, prospects, or someone new to your business.

Connect social media profiles on facebook, linkedin and twitter to zoho crm

Send event invites using mass emails

Create e-invites as email templates and schedule them to be sent to contacts in your database whenever an event is coming up. For example, if you're planning an event in New York, you can select the city criteria as "New York," and if the event is targeted towards young professionals, you can use advanced filters to send out invites to all your contacts aged 18-25.

Send mass email campaigns

Run Google Ad campaigns and
track them in your CRM

Zoho CRM combines CRM data with your Google Ads information so you can figure out which keywords bring in the most qualified leads. Put together online and offline conversion data for a clear view on sales numbers and spend your advertising budget where it counts the most to get a better return on your investment.

Ramp up your upselling and cross-selling

  • Cross-sell with context
  • Predict repeat purchases
  • Focus on deals that matter
 

Cross-sell with context

Certain products and services are often bought together, even if they aren't necessarily sold as a bundle. For example, if someone buys a car, they'll probably be interested in annual scheduled maintenance, too. Zoho's AI assistant, Zia, maintains a list of products that people are likely to buy and makes recommendations based on previous purchases that similar contacts have made.

Get AI based recommendations

Predict repeat purchases

If you're selling consumable products that require regular re-purchases (like engine oil or coolants), Zia can offer your sales reps recommendations about products that customers might buy again after a set time. Is their engine oil about to expire? Use that opportunity to reach out!

Get AI based suggestions which can predict repeat purchases

Focus on deals that matter

Not all deals move at the same pace. A deal that has been pending for ages might be on the verge of closing. A lead that you thought was a sure thing might be left unattended. Zia defines these records as “trending up” or “trending down,” depending on whether they’re becoming more likely to win or lose.

Get AI based suggestions for deals which are likely to close

Portals to bring OEMs, dealerships,
and customers together

  • Sell online with E-catalogues
  • Collaborate with portals
 

Bring the dealership to the
customer with e-catalogues

Let prospects browse through your products and services at their leisure through portals that are customized with your company's branding. Create an ideal space to show your prospects exactly what you're offering by styling your portal with the Canvas view to create a picturesque display of your records with images, tags, color codes, and more.

provide e-catalogue of products and services with portals

OEMs and dealerships can collaborate to meet customer demands

OEMs and dealerships can save time and resources that were previously dedicated to status calls and emails with a dedicated portal. OEMs can utilize this streamlined channel of communication to ensure that order conflicts or disputes are quickly resolved. Dealerships can get a consolidated view of all the sales orders that they're associated with, and they can leave comments if there's a change in their order.

OEMs and Dealerships can collaborate though portals

Integrate with the apps you use everyday

Seamlessly integrate with more than 300 popular business apps and let your CRM talk the same business language as yours.

AquaDesign Mfg. held a several year contract with Salesforce and the usage of the product by the team was virtually zero.Evaluating several CRM's, we arrived at ZOHO, a robust, comprehensive, easy to navigate and highly customizable solution that our sales team has immersed themselves in due to the ease of use and on the management side, all of the tools are there to either process or build custom report, forecasts and analytics.

Having a standardized sales and communication process makes it easier to bring on new sales reps. We can plug in new sales reps as quickly as we plug in new customers. Standardizing our sales process makes it so much more sustainable for long-term growth.

We switched to Zoho CRM about a year ago and it was much needed. Since switching to Zoho CRM, productivity has gone through the roof! Data administration is so much better, and we can customize the CRM to exactly what we need!

We can accurately track the entirety of a customer's journey and manage our solar installation projects from start to finish. Zoho CRM provides the tools to create the methodology and culture to accomplish our goals. I think we can attribute our growth to tracking our sales pipeline in Zoho.
