When you're a shuttle driver at a car dealership, traffic can be your worst nightmare. There's nothing worse than sitting in traffic for five hours on the way to your next customer's appointment, only to be late and put their day behind schedule.
Today, we'll talk about how navigation systems can help you avoid getting stuck in traffic and how they can make sure you get where you need to go on time.
Here are 5 reasons why using the right navigation app for drivers is so important.
- It saves time: When you're a busy dealership, time is money. And when you're managing your entire operation from a single dashboard, every second counts. You don't have to waste time logging into multiple programs, or switching between apps just to view the information you need right now.
- It provides better data: Navigation apps are designed for drivers on the road—not for busy managers who need to see real-time customer or driver data at their fingertips from anywhere in the office or on their phones during daily operations.
- It makes employees more productive: If you want your employees to be as productive as possible, they need tools that help them do their jobs more effectively and efficiently—and they need those tools in one place so they don't waste time trying (and failing) to find what they need on multiple platforms and devices.
- Overall efficiency through route optimization: With the right navigation app, a driver can choose an optimized route and arrive at their destination in the shortest amount of time. Which means happier customers and more efficient operations.
- It's easy to use: When you need a tool that's simple enough for an entry-level employee to use but still powerful enough for seasoned sales pros and managers, dealership management software is the answer. With intuitive navigation and simple functions, you can set up your system in just a few hours—and then spend less of your time training staff on how to use it because there are no complex features or confusing interfaces.
Real-time navigation apps are great for getting you where you need to go. But what if you’re a shuttle driver at a dealership? It can be hard to find the right way, especially when you’re trying to navigate around a lot of traffic. That’s why we created Quickride, an app that is made specifically for busy car dealerships and makes sure your customers get where they’re going safely. Quickride uses route optimization to ensure the drivers are following the most efficient routes by taking into account traffic, weather, and road conditions.
When it comes to your business, a good navigation system is important. It's not just about getting from point A to point B—it's also about how you get there. You want to be able to get through the traffic and find the quickest route, but you don't want to miss out on an opportunity along the way.
Whether you're driving or managing a car dealership, having a good navigation system can make all the difference in helping your drivers stay on track.
