LCM going down?
#52
I am not just speaking from a consumers point of view. We made the switch to Dealer.com in our dealership a year and a half ago. Our pre-owned owned sales will triple this year in a down economy. Even if the prices are high it still gives the consumer a guide. The key to selling in today's times are tons of good pictures, a good description, and price. I am currently in the market for two boats. I have spent numerous time over the last three months checking the web. I will not even waste my time on sites that don't advertise price. I check Shorgen's website weekly. The pictures are very descriptive, and you can tell they are moving through inventory. I picked up the phone and made a call because I liked what I saw and the boat fit my budget. To bad for me someone else saw it first and pulled the trigger.
Another thing they do good at is showing the boat in top detail shape. I was looking at another boat on a another site. 200k for a 08 repo, I bet it had 15 gallons of water in the bilge. Wow that tells me it has been taken care of. Check out Legend Marine's ad's. One picture and the same copy and paste description on every ad. The dealers that adapt to these new times will survive. The dealers that wait for their phones to ring will fail.
