April 8, 2010 - PRLog -- If you are thinking about opening your own automotive dealership, you probably are aware of just how stiff the competitions are out there. Small used car lots or sub prime car loan businesses are popping up everywhere more often than your local Tim Hortons. And everyone is struggling to stand out from the crowd to make their business sustainable. Having a good location and inventory is half the battle, the other half is all about your virtual office. Yes you guess it, I am talking about your web site, and internet advertising. Today's consumer is more educated than ever before, with more and more users fluking to the World Wide Web, it is no surprise, to be successful at your business you must embrace the technology of Internet. But to have a well designed and developed web site can be very costly, and many of today's car guys are treading into unfamiliar territory when it comes to the web technology. Choosing the big names in web design and hosting firms are expensive, a typical automotive web site can cost from $6000 to $15000. That can be devastating to a small business that doesn't have the capital for this kind of investment.

If you are able to find yourself a reputable web design firm, the next hurdle is to find a suitable hosting service. Hosting services that specialize in automotive sector are far and few in between. The cost can range from $200-400 per month just to be hosted. The last piece of the puzzle is to find suitable software that can manage and control your leads and inventory. Now a typical automotive CRM solution costs between $1500 to $15000 as their setup fee, and $1500 to $5000 per month for the software license. If all these expenses I am describing sounds too outrageous to be true don't panic, there is an all in one solution for Canadian dealers.
