Our Story
Hyperdrive is the only service combined Automotive Services vendor that actually shares in the accountability for its client’s success all the way from website conversion, lead counts, e-sales & BDC results to delivery rates. There aren’t many aspects of the business that we don’t take some degree of accountability for. Our clients agree that most vendors are more interested in providing stand alone products than a group of connected products that risk putting their companies in the crosshairs of a client’s scope in value assessment.  We opted to take the road less traveled.
..

We realized, early on,  that those businesses (who signed up for the newest “best” thing) have been forced to be a experts in areas they probably never meant to sign up for.  That’s NOT why they got into the car business!  That is, however, exactly what it takes to be successful.  We decided to align ourselves with that  burden of comprehensive expertise that automotive dealers face,  and to face and attack the challenges that comprise the primary points of profitability for today’s business with our customers

We don’t focus on every minute detail of a dealer’s operation, but we have mastered much of what counts.  This is in distinct contrast to the many trainers, vendors and consultants who are disconnected and completely on the outside looking in on their clients’ success - or failure. 

Websites

The foundation of our business was the creation of websites that convert.  In fact, the term “conversion rate” was coined by us in 1996.  We knew then that what mattered most was how many customers virtually “raised their hands” by submitting a lead when they hit our sites.  If a 1000 customers hit one of our sites, 250 to 450 customers will submit a lead.  The average dealership website converts 5% - or a miniscule 50 leads per thousand.  You do the math.

Training

In a world where today’s BDC and Internet training systems consist primarily of “Debbie the Time Life Operator Syndrome”, we broke away from the homgenized crowd and created  the Mastery Council BDC and Internet Sales System.

In the world of Internet sales processes we have documented an over 90% internet lead to contact rate, a 96% appointment set rate and an 80% + show rate for a total of 69% + of all leads in the door.  We have succesfully implemented our training methods and our management-by-numbers methodology in dealerships that range from stand alone BHPH to multi-franchise metro monstrosities.

Marketing

It doesn’t matter how well your website converts if you don’t know how to market it. As a matter of course, media analysis is a part of what we do.  And by the time we get done going through advertising invoices and looking at traffic problems, the client in question has already lost thousands in income.

As a result, we developed an unorthadox but amazingly effective media buying system.  Hyperdrive Media is an integral part of what we do, and employs Ninja-Jedi advertising methodologie that translate into reduced budgets that garner up to 400% more advertising for the marketing dollar.

The Hyperdrive story cannot possibly be told in this limited amount of space, but you should now have a clearer idea of who we are and what we’re able to do for our clients.  The truth is that our products and services have evolved as we’ve strengthened our relationships with our longest term clients and that, in and of itself, speaks volumes about our commitment to the success of our customers.

We build the highest converting websites in the industry.  We train processes that will enable your sales force or BDC to set the greatest number of appointments that show, and you will sell more cars at a higher gross profit than was otherwise previously possible.  We have the media buying know-how and clout to turn your ad budget into a media onslaught that will drive viable traffic to your website.  It’s what we do.  It’s Hyperdrive.
