Sales Tips
After analysing 50,000 leads from 200+ Autreino dealers, the top 10% generate 4x more leads than average. Here's what they do differently.
1. Reply within 30 minutes
Leads contacted in the first 30 minutes are 7 times more likely to convert than leads contacted after 2 hours. Set up WhatsApp alerts (Settings → Notifications) so you never miss one.
2. Photos that look like the car is brand new
Top dealers spend 10 minutes per car cleaning, parking against a plain wall, and shooting in daylight. Cars with 8+ photos get 2.3x more views than cars with 3 photos.
3. Write keyword-rich descriptions
Buyers search for things like "Swift petrol Pune 2018 single owner". If those exact phrases appear in your description, your storefront shows up in Google more often.
4. Run a "great price" listing every week
Pick one car every Monday, drop the price by 5%, and put it at the top with the "Featured" toggle. This drives traffic to your entire storefront — buyers come for the deal, then browse the rest.
5. Follow up after 3 days
70% of leads don't buy on the first conversation. Send a polite WhatsApp message 3 days later: "Hi {name}, still looking? I have 2 new arrivals you might like." This recovers about 1 in 5 lost leads.
Bonus: Ask for referrals
After every sale, ask the buyer to share your storefront link in their WhatsApp groups. Offer ₹500 cashback for any referred buyer who completes a purchase. Word-of-mouth from a happy customer beats any ad campaign.
