SeeToo – Video Sharing For Car Dealerships and Consumers

This is an interesting concept that I came across today that could be a great way for dealerships and consumers to ‘meet up’ virtually before meeting on the lot…

SeeToo.com is currently in Beta mode, but you can sign up as a Beta tester on their website. The basic concept behind SeeToo is a shared chat room where you can watch a video simultaneously with the person you are chatting with. Imagine being able to interact in the same virtual room as your prospects by just sending them a link and sharing video walk-arounds of vehicles you compiled. I think the coolest part of this technology is the way that you could interact with your prospects in a private environment to discuss their vehicle purchase needs in a personalized manner.

I use WebEx’s Meeting Manager to show dealerships what our Internet Marketing Solutions can do for them on a daily basis and have often thought that this technology would be extremely useful for dealership and consumer conversations. Instead of doing a basic talk-around of your virtual inventory, a SeeToo or WebEx type environment allows you to really connect with your customers to SHOW them the ins-and-outs of your products. These products and services are available today and dealerships that take advantage of these new virtual sharing environments will be able to stay that much further ahead of the competition. I expect to see more video sharing services like SeeToo come out in the future that will allow you to connect with your customers on a different level.

If you are utilizing a service like SeeToo or WebEx at your dealership, please let us know because I’d love to hear how they are working for you!
