June 2016 Sales

Recommended Posts

Guys, hope you don't mind me jumping in on this topic. I'm not a dealer, but a supplier to the industry. I visit many dealers across the south and the feedback I'm getting is trade has gone quite. Besides number of units sold does anyone track/measure traffic to their websites using Google Analytics or WebMaster? Is there a correlation between the amount of organic (keyword/phrases) search traffic and sales? Do referrals/paid (AutoTrader, eBay) search generate the more traffic?

Here's to a busy June!

That's great, thanks for sharing. Does organic search traffic from Google rank higher than Referral/Paid search traffic?

Couple of cars so far.

Do any of you guys get real waves with the Zuto / CF24/7 stuff?

Done 6+ in last couple of weeks prior to that nothing for ages. Funny old game.

I think it's because they go through periods of recommending certain dealers, we have had it happen as you describe on a couple of occasions pal.

Only explanation I can think of.

I think it's 4 sales so far this month, only 9 calls from yesterday until this morning. Very few emails and the ones we do get are part exchange enquiries for 1.2 corsa's against a Nissan GT-R

Ticking along nice to be fair, done just over 1 day and got some nice stuff coming in as well as a few in the pipeline on my current stock.

No slowdown noted here, at least yet, anyway.

took in a couple of sky high mileage part chops but I reckon both will end up selling quickly.

2004 Merc CLK 2.7 Diesel leather two tone leather sat nav and probably loads more, 216k Mot May 2017
