For 8 years I have used the Cross sell report to help us figure out what is happening in our market- with facts, not speculation. I need to know exactly who is poaching my customers so I can make a strategy to defend my market. If I need more specific information I always call back to Cross-Sell and they are great at getting it together. Sure beats the rumor mill or grapevine methods!"

"The Cross-Sell Report can be a valuable tool for dealers to improve both their used car business as well as their new . . . The Cross-Sell Report will tell you what’s hot and what’s not. It will tell you which lenders in your market are buying the paper. It will tell you who is outselling you. If you know what the competition is doing, then you can study them and make yourself better. I highly recommend that Cross-Sell be part of your monthly business plan to improve your business."

"Cross-Sell’s new statewide lienholder summary makes it easy for me to identify all potential finance sources operating in my market. In the current environment, it is vital I maintain a broad lender portfolio to ensure I have the most opportunities to get clients financed. The lienholder summary allows me to track the number of loans by each bank, and if I do not have a relationship with a bank whose loan totals have increased over the last several months, I make sure I start working with them."

- Mike Coyle, President, Coyle Dodge, New Albany, IN

"I’ve been a Cross-Sell customer for years now. I made the mistaking of canceling my service 6 months ago when business started get tough, all in an effort to save a buck. I only lasted 30 days and was calling back in a panic in need of my market data. In today’s turbulent economy, it is imperative to have a measuring stick to determine whether your company and its associates are performing or not. The best measure of any company’s performance has and always will be the market. Without this information, you’re incapable of intelligently navigating the waters of today’s marketplace. Being 40% off last year is ONLY a bad job if the market’s off 30%. We’ve found it much more cost effective to find out if we have a problem first, before we start throwing money around trying to fix it."

- Anthony M Gomez, Managing Partner, Capital Honda, Okemos, MI
