who are generally understanding about rescheduling
when necessary.
Technology plays a crucial role, too. We heavily rely on
connected vehicle data to schedule services accurately
and minimize wasted trips. But there's room for improvement.
The industry still needs more sophisticated tools
for scheduling, route optimization, and integration with
existing dealership systems. I'm confident that as more
dealerships embrace mobile services, technology will
catch up and make these processes even more efficient.
LOOKING AHEAD: THE FUTURE OF MOBILE
SERVICES IN AUTOMOTIVE
We're just scratching the surface of what's possible with
mobile services. Ford, for example, is fully committed
to this new model. With over 3,000 mobile service vans
on the road today, they are leading the way in supporting
dealerships like ours. Their backing gives us confidence
to continue investing in this model, knowing it's
the future of fixed ops.
And it's not just about oil changes or basic maintenance.
We're doing recall repairs, servicing fleet vehicles, and
reaching customers who might never have considered
coming to the dealership. This is a long-term strategy,
and we're just getting started.
WHY EVERY DEALERSHIP SHOULD
CONSIDER MOBILE SERVICES
I've heard colleagues who are hesitant to adopt mobile
services say, " Why bother? It's just oil changes. " But
it's so much more than that. It's about building relationships,
enhancing customer satisfaction, and creating
new opportunities for growth. It's about being visible,
being proactive, and being where your customers
need you.
For those who are still on the fence, my advice is simple:
give it a try. Start small if you need to, but don't ignore
this trend. Your customers will thank you. Your business
will grow. And you'll position yourself as a leader in an
industry that's always evolving.
