The automotive auction industry has a long history with practices that have been in place with great success. However, automotive auctions that stick by the same old processes they have used in the past are missing out on a huge opportunity to grow and increase sales. Utilizing modern technology to track every step in the auto auction as well as leads can greatly improve the auction business, yet many companies are still hesitant to change.
Part of the resistance to modernization is the processes in place still produce results. But, as in every business, there are frustrating aspects that cause extra work at auto auctions and also in office backend processes. Many automotive auctions just deal with these frustrating details as part of their day-to-day, dealing with problems as they arrive.
Yet technology can make all of these frustrating details in the auto auction business practically non-existent. Technology, such as customer relationship management (CRM), can automate every aspect of the automotive auction, allowing businesses to focus on their core operations and leave the frustrating details for a program to manage.

Off-the-shelf programs can only help so much, but with a comprehensive software solution will allow customization. Businesses who invest in tech to help manage their automotive auction will have the ability to completely customize their software solution. This allows the technology to completely serve your needs, increasing sales and allowing for growth without a headache.
Complete Automation
Great automotive auction technology will automatically capture information during the auction and streamline the data into appropriate storage spaces defined by the business owner. It can also capture leads and automatically assign them to a sales person.
Complete Sales Growth
Doing things “the old way” will continue to produce results, but eventually some automotive auctions will surpass others when they modernize. The best bet to keep growing and see more sales is to integrate old processes with new technology to make the automotive auction business modern.
