Jus Cruisin’
By Laura Thompson
Evidence of the level piaymg
field is especially apparent in the
automotive industry.
The age of high pressure sales
tactics, pushy sales reps and the
negotiation games that are
played on the showroom floor
are now passe’.
In my last article. 1 introduced'
you the ‘One Simple Price"
selling system, which means
exactly what it’s name implies.
When you purchase a car you
pay ONE SIMPLE PRICE And
you don’t have to be an expert
negotiator either.
With this method, you just
choose the car you want and if
it’s within you budget and your
credit is approved, you can drive
off in your new or used car the
same day. It’s just that simple.
It’s no different than buying a
new dress or a pair of shoes.
You pay the ticketed price.
Gunn Automotive, the San
Antonio pioneers of the “One
Simple Price” selling, wants
your buying experience to be
one that you are happy with.
Plus, they want you to buy a car
that comes with monthly
payments that you can afford.
Gunn Automotive is not only
committed to providing a .
positive buying experience for
you, they are equally committed
to not saddling you with a
financing situation beyond your
means.
So, as I was saying, One Simple
Price and Worldwide Web
shopping complement each other
very well.
Using the Internet to research
vehicle information is growing
very popular. Not too long ago,
in a blind study (respondents did
not know for whom the study
was being conducted)
commissioned by Gunn
Automotive it showed that
Internet technology is becoming
a significant factor in influencing
vehicle purchasing decisions.
A full two-thirds of those
surveyed said they found using
websites useful In fact, Gunn's
own website, gunnauto.com, was
mentioned by name by almost 20
percent of the respondents.
The top reasons mentioned for
using websites prior to
purchasing a vehicle included
the following:
• Research before
buying and
checking out
price ranges
• Researching all
the specs/details
about a particular
vehicle
• Internet proved a
good source of
information for
vehicle owners
One Simple Price allows you to
buy a vehicle and then go to a
“One Simple Price” dealership to
buy. It sounds like a romance
destined for a wonderftil future.
Gunn Automotive offers “One
Simple Price” at the company’s
eight dealerships: Acura,
Chevrolet, Dodge, Honda,
Inflniti. Land Rover,
Pontiac/GMC and Nissan.
Just “One Simple Price’
No Hassle, No Haggling:
the playing field for consumers
going out and making large
purchases such as homes and
automobiles.
Information is power. And now
more than ever, the average
consumer has access to volumes
of information on the world wide
web. The Internet has leveled
With the New Millennium just
around the comer, there is no
debating that we live in the
Information Age.
