Internal Engagements – Best Practices The following should act as high-level guidance regarding specific internal interaction. Connect with your leader for additional guidance, where needed.
•
Referrals
Buy - Sells
Used primarily for new business and in some cases upsell opportunities depending on brand (DTK, Xtime, Vin, DDC)
• The current buy-sell process works well and is being kept “as is” for the various teams
•
PMs are to engage with RSS or EDP on accounts/client items, progress, issues
• Top line priority is to maintain client experience. Example: if the purchased account has rep coverage today, it needs rep coverage after being purchased
•
For groups where multiple local PMs are involved, a PM must be identified (single point of contact) to advise the client corporate structure of CAI actions happening locally
• If a dealer is within a client group of dealers, the dealer will be added to test Ops PM if the PM has other stores within the test group
•
Fluent “open line of communication” must be maintained so RSS and EDP leaders understand plans of actions and RoE for clients
•
Escalation path for referral credit: April Hightower
•
Escalation path for technical issues. First line for request is a Service now ticket. If no resolution, escalate to Stephanie Keryc or Joe Martin as depicted below. 3 Day SLA 1.

vAuto Price Null Requests Need the following information for Support to set up correct codes. Is this for: New, Used or Both Is this for: List Price, Other Price or Both
What is the Start Date What is the End Date Are they syndicating with vAuto?
NOTE: Price Nulls should start and end Monday-Friday during normal business hours. While we can remove the prices for the vehicles that fit the criteria above, we are unable to provide guarantees that the prices will be completely removed from the web. Therefore, if we were to proceed with nulling the prices in vAuto, we recommend following up with your third-party vendors to ensure the successful completion of the price null.

vAuto Export/Feed Setups/Photo feed issues Utilize the Syndication Summary page and see if there are exports already in place for the needed vendor. If a new feed is needed, provide the following information: Name of the 3rd party vendor Export just Used, just New, or Both Who is the contact at the dealership to provide authorization Note: almost all vendors will need written authorization from the dealership to change inventory and/or photo sources. We can email the vendor, but the dealer will need to REPLY ALL with their authorization.

vAuto Missing Trim/Series in Conquest •
Typically, this will be a decode issue
•
Case escalated to Level 3
•
Meaning we don’t have enough data to properly decode the VIN all the way up to the correct series
•
Level 3 research current data points in our DBs
•
Dealers can always manually enter it in vAuto if it’s needed immediately
•
Level 3 contacts Autodata with provided information
•
Wait for Autodata to adjust on their end and push us new files
•
vAuto runs a weekly all data refresh process, must wait for this to complete before any changes are seen
•
Can be timing issues
•
Support is powerless to speed up this process
•
Support decode case process •
What we need: •
Provide us the full VIN(s)
•
Provide us what the series or other attribute is supposed to be
•
Helps if there is an accompanying build sheet from the dealer

vAuto Customer Issues Conquest Mass Realignment
Add Listing Logic / Cost fields to Appraisals
A mass re-alignment can be done for the entire account if the dealer requests.
• App Request case
Keep in mind this can be done for the whole account and not just certain makes, model, etc. Also, this process is not reversible.
If dealer is okay with this, they must submit a written request via Support box and a case must be created. Maybe added to PM Center in the future.

| FOR DISCUSSION Pending Price Change issuesCONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL • Know how to read the page • Just because there are vehicles in the report doesn’t mean something is broken • Remember that by default only Retail and Published vehicles get their data exported to 3rd party site vendors • • •
• •
The dealer changed the price to $57,998 The account is setup to look at AutoTrader as the Source Site The vehicle will remain on this site, until we see $57,998 on AutoTrader We sent the price update to ADP (CDK/Sincro/Cobalt) successfully The price needs to get from there to AutoTrader
Use the VIN Diagnose page to find the vehicle on AutoTrader or any other site we see it
• Can easily see that CDK(Cobalt) has the correct price on their site. • But there is NO price seen on AutoTrader. • All evidence tells us then there is some issue between their Syndication provider, CDK and AutoTrader. • Dealer can resolve the issue by contacting CDK support and finding out why AutoTrader is not updating.
