My encouragement to you today, for all the sales people watching this, is to focus on engaging your customers. Engagement is all that matters in terms of our process to be able to sell our customers. Now, again, when somebody walks on the lot you can create that engagement because they are there. I want to focus on what’s happening on the telephone and, potentially, on the internet.

How are you getting customers to call you back? How are you getting customers to want to come in and visit the dealership? What are the next steps that you are taking?
