The Internet Will Be The Future Of Automotive Sales

Automotive online sales are quickly becoming the norm. Preowned automotive stores such as Carvana, Vroom, and Carmax will soon eat away at independent and franchise dealership-used car businesses.

It's all because they got to online sales first. According to news and a research study conducted by CNBC, American's dislike going to car dealerships. With the long sales process and armed with new research, consumers feel compelled to get the most for their vehicle trade-ins. The majority of new auto purchases are associated with vehicle trade-ins.

Many consumers feel taken advantage of by dealerships in most cases and don't trust their dealership sales consultant. In five recent articles, including Forbes, car salespeople are considered among the least trusted professions, near congress members. It is important to note that some automotive dealers are pillars in their community and provide excellent service to their communities.

Auto dealers should ensure that online automotive sales will be a vital element in their sales process. A new and improved dealership sales process goes beyond having a BDC (business development department) but having a simplified car-buying process that is contactless without salespeople. The new auto dealers created on-premise sales, but now the newer competitors taking sales online are perfecting auto sales.

There is more of an upside for dealerships to revisit their sales processes. Dealers would have the ability to sell outside of their selling areas, sell for higher-margin, reduce or eliminate negotiation, and increase profitability.

Artist Interview #10: Eric Elliott

1. Are you a full time artist, if not how do you support your art?

I currently teach part time, work part time at Prographica Gallery, and make art part time.

2. When did you consider yourself an artist?

Although I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember, I made the decision to dedicate myself to becoming an artist when I was 19 or 20. But, I don’t think I considered myself an artist until after graduate school when I was still making art, but no longer an art student.

3. What are your influences?

I’m influenced by pretty much everything around me, whatever I’m reading at the time, the art I’m looking at, the houseplants in my apartment, the light, the weather, the seasons… The artists who have influenced my work the most are Giacometti, Cezanne, Morandi, Antonio Lopez Garcia, Euan Uglow, Philip Guston, Monet, Edwin Dickinson, Ann Gale, Vuillard… the list can go on and on.

4. How big is your studio, what kind of lighting?

I have only been in my current studio for about 6 months and it is about 300 sq. ft. It has natural light from skylights, which has been a struggle to figure out how to control the light for my still lifes. For nighttime and dark days, there are overhead lights with a mixture of different temperature light bulbs.

5. What is a typical day in the studio like for you? Do you listen to music, radio or tv in your studio?

I usually sit in silence when I first get to the studio and figure out what I want to tackle for the day. Once I’ve made a decision on what I’m going to do, I’ll put on NPR, a podcast, or an audio book and get to work. My brain likes to chatter and I find that having something on in the background keeps that part of my brain busy, but when I have a big decision to make I usually pause what I’m listening to until I’ve figured out the next step. I’ll take a break for lunch and then get back to painting until dinnertime.

6. What is your preferred medium? Do you work on one project at a time or several?

I prefer oil paint, and I usually have a few things going at once. At various stages during a painting I like to look at it for a while to figure out what to do next, and while I do that I usually start something new.

7. Do you have any special or unique tools, devices or process that you use in your art making?

Nope. All pretty standard tools, devices, and process.

8. What do you do outside the studio, aside from a job?

I hang out with my wife Devyn, watch an episode of something, read, and think about the next painting.

More other stuff. 

Eric Elliotts ink work is probably some of my favorite of all time. Its subtle yet vivid. He's also doing a kickstarter to go to school in Jerusalem and is actually giving away lots of original pieces as rewards for backing him. This is an awesome chance to support an amazing artist and get some cool art in return.
