AutosOnVideo

AutosOnVideo: Autos On Video describes itself as a smartphone app suite for car dealers covering vehicle photography and video, from inventory merchandising through sales follow-up to the service drive. Its site presents the apps as a way for anyone in the dealership to create multimedia sales and service presentations from a phone.

AutosOnVideo: product details

AutosOnVideo sells a suite of iPhone and Android apps for dealership video: Vehicle Merchandising, Video Lead Responder and Video Service Repair. Its home page claims a dealer can fully merchandise a vehicle in under 8 minutes, with 2 videos, up to 40 photos and a human voiceover, with no post-editing and no computer needed.

That is a company claim about speed, so a store should time a pilot on its own lot. The three apps cover merchandising for sales, personal video replies to internet leads, and service drive video for repair recommendations.

A dealer should ask where videos are hosted, whether they appear on the VDP and in third-party listings automatically, how a salesperson's video is tied to the CRM lead record, and what the per-store fee covers. Because the apps depend on phone cameras and a voiceover, ask about lighting and audio standards and who reviews video before it goes live.
