AGENCY PARTNERS

Why Agencies (and Agents) choose MorningStar Automotive

If a dealer receives more quality leads from existing ad dollars - then ad agency ROI reports are much higher. We help make that happen.

If a dealership sells more cars - then F&I product sales increase. We make that happen.

If all staff is trained on benefits of F&I products and how to mention them during the sales process without mentioning price, and include them in deal structures from the desk legally - then F&I product sales increase. We make that happen.

Dealers want more, higher quality leads without spending more money - always.  We do that by providing the industry’s highest converting dealership websites.

Dealers need solutions to close more of the leads they have.  We do that while decreasing the dealer’s lead handling costs and profit leaks by providing better lead handling technology.

Dealers need their customer facing staff to be continually developed - especially call handlers, salespeople, sales managers, F&I managers, and service advisors.  We do that “daily” for about $1 per day per employee and the results are outstanding.

Dealers need new staff that is trained.  We recruit and train for the sales, internet, F&I, sales management and service advisor positions - for no charge to the dealer or our agency partners.  Our candidates are serious about their automotive career and pay for their own training.

We share our profits.  We have paid out more than $2,000,000 in partnership profits to our agency partners whom we serve - and we never compete with our agency partners in their dealer accounts.

MorningStar Principals own, or have a meaningful share of stock ownership, in the following companies - so we can help ensure the highest quality service to our Agency Partners and their dealers.
