Facilitate Better Communications

If you’d like to convert more site visitors into live conversations with sales people, you must give them a variety of ways to communicate, from the traditional phone conversation, to the latest in instant messaging and live chat. ContactAtOnce! provides the most comprehensive suite of communication options available, all fully integrated within a single web-based application.

  • Instant Messaging (IM), also known as “chat”
  • Click-to-call
  • Click-to-call IM escalation
  • Voice over IP (VoIP) & Live Video
  • Email
  • Tracked numbers (toll-free and/or local)

ContactAtOnce! online chat for auto dealers has been proven to be one of the most effective ways to enable instant communications between potential buyers and sales people. When websites are live chat-enabled, at least 25% more online visitors will actively engage with a dealership and those prospects are more likely to buy cars-it’s that simple. Some auto dealers utilize all ContactAtOnce! communications options. Others pick and choose only specific options, such as instant messaging or car dealer live chat.
