(Frankfort, Ill.) – January 20, 2010 – Dealer HD has announced its plan for the 90-Day Test Drive promotion.  The promotion, which begins during the 2010 NADA Convention allows dealerships near contract expiration to sign on with Dealer HD at no cost for 90-Days.

The promotion aims to attract dealers nearing the end of their contracts that are looking for a risk free change of pace.  At no cost dealerships can get the full Dealer HD website and service experience and decide if the product is the right fit for them.

The promotion starts during the 2010 NADA Convention and Expo in Orlando, Florida.  “We pride ourselves on personal service and believe NADA is the perfect opportunity to demo our products in person to those interested in getting in the driver’s seat,” said Justin Duff, Vice President of Sales at Dealer HD.  “We’re very confident in the DHD product and believe dealers that take the Test Drive will find Dealer HD is exactly what they need.”

The 90-Day Test Drive promotion incorporates the use of NADA’s stimulus vouchers.  Dealerships interested in additional site add-ons not included in the promotional sites can trade in their vouchers for additional services.

Dealer HD believes finding the perfect fit with products and services is essential to Internet success.  The 90-Day Test Drive will be available to dealerships within 8-months of their contract expiration.  Appointments are being made now for NADA demos and 90-Day Test Drive opportunities.  If you’re interested in taking the drive email nada@dealerhd.com or call today 866.222.7712 to reserve your appointment at the NADA Convention and Expo, February 13^th through 15^th.

Dealer HD is an Automotive Website and Solutions Provider serving clients Nationwide. Located in the southern suburbs of Chicago, the Dealer HD team has over 100 years of combined automotive experience.  Dealer HD provides customizable dealer web sites with a comprehensive admin tool that collects dealer leads, allows the quick and easy editing of website content, inventory modification and more.  Dealer HD makes sure your dealer website is ready for mobile applications, social networking, and all future web innovations.

At DealerHD, 2009 was an incredible year for our young company in terms of growth, research, development and execution.  We put everything into developing a comprehensive solution for the next generation of online dealerships, now we’re unveiling it to dealers.  We are changing our focus and approach to the way we do business and offering transparency to dealerships that give us an opportunity to earn their business.

We’re implementing the “90 Day Test Drive.”  Dealerships within eight months of expiration with their current website provider will be eligible for our “90 Day Test Drive” at NADA with no contract or cost to the dealer, letting dealers witness firsthand what we can do and our strategy driven relationship.  We simply ask you to apply the NADA stimulus voucher to the 3 month agreement.  If DealerHD proves to be a great fit after the trial a contract will be a month-to-month agreement proving every day the right choice was made.  In doing this, we hope to provide dealerships with a true experience before they make the decision to move forward with DealerHD.

During the trial, dealerships will use our tools and the capabilities of our new platform, and our flexibility in development and strategy around an individual dealership.  Our attitude is one of “we can.”  If dealers have a progressive idea not currently used or built in the industry we will work to implement or create the technology at no cost.  DealerHD wants to be part of the innovation for automotive digital and dealership ideas are critical in that venture.  Most website vendors in the industry would agree when sitting with a dealership they talk about what their competitor can’t or isn’t doing. With DealerHD, whether its functionality or service, we will prove our worth before you make a decision.

We are scheduling demos at NADA and participating dealers can sign up to take a 90 Day Test Drive.  After NADA we will be implementing a one-time set-up fee for dealerships that are interested in our 90 Day trial to drive their online goals, again no contracts will be involved.  Set-up pricing hasn’t been set but will be minimal, around a couple hundred dollars for the full 3 months.  We believe this one-time charge to be fair in helping you decide the dealership’s online future without commitment.

Our goal is to be the vendor that works best with your dealership and not simply known as having incredible marketing or a top-notch sales force.  Our resources are dedicated to our account management, research and development efforts. “Salesmanship” is being replaced with “relationship” in our world.  We want to have the lowest ratio of account mangers to dealerships in the industry; our goal is 10:1 which puts us in incredible shape.

Currently we work with dealers on websites, mobile, SEO, PPC, banner advertising, texting, reputation management, social media, lead management, live analytics and rewards programs.  Ninety-nine percent of our products are built in-house to keep the cost down for the dealer and we’re always looking for progressive ideas to build new products.  We look forward to working with experts in the industry to help drive innovation forward.  If you have any questions or would like to schedule a demo at NADA please contact NADA@dealerhd.com.  You can also email me at jeff@dealerhd.com.  DealerHD looks forward to helping the community grow and the exchanging of ideas in 2010.
