<title>Dealer Spotlight: Irwin Toyota</title>
<link>http://www.dealerrater.com/news/dealer-spotlight-irwin-toyota-1029.aspx</link>
<description><![CDATA[Understanding that more consumers are utilizing the internet not just to research their next potential vehicle purchase but also to research which dealership they are going to do business with, Irwin Toyota Scion decided to partner with DealerRater in February of 2009. Consumers have relied on consumer reviews with respect to Web sites like Amazon.com for years. Why would a vehicle purchase be any different? With a vehicle purchase being the second biggest purchase in a person’s life it only makes sense for people to turn to consumer review sites, ensuring they are doing business with a dealership they can trust. Customer satisfaction has always been the focus of Irwin Toyota Scion so they wanted to find a way to demonstrate that to their customers. DealerRater made perfect sense as it’s an Independent 3rd Party Review Site that is unbiased. In essence DealerRater has been utilized as a competitive advantage for Irwin Toyota Scion.]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2009 15:07:14 GMT</pubDate></item>

<description><![CDATA[Hyundai of St. Augustine opened in June of 2008 with the Mission Statement of “Excellent Service from Excellent People.”     The challenge we faced was, how do we prove to our guests who haven’t become part of our family yet that we truly provide “Excellent Service from Excellent People?”   While the manufacturer provides a Customer Satisfaction Index scoring system, this is often not visible or credible in the eyes of our guests.   That is why we chose to focus on making DealerRater an integral part of our sales and service process.   ]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2009 23:02:07 GMT</pubDate></item>
