Business history is littered with the early adoptors being copied by the new comers. Although there is a fine line beteen benchmarking & plagiarism, business is an adventure where Darwin's laws trump all others (the hungry eat the weak). Your business needed the wisdom of a wize grey haired exec. to prepare everyone for the onslaught of copycats (and a method to slow them down). As an example, I sit on an advisory panel for a start up with a brand new smoke cutting flashlight for firemen and police. It's really someting to see! I lobbied hard to keep manufacturing OUT of China and OUT of a single source here in the US. Copycats are a way of life in ALL business. Some more food for thought. Joe eric,

Therefore it may suggest that there is a lack of true innovation and work ethic with this company. Food for thought.

Their sites do a good job of converting traffic to leads and getting your dealership in the search results. Like you, I felt the same way about the way Inventory is displayed. I hope to see an improvement at NADA this year... The SEO and Conversion makes up for it though. The guys at DealerOn were always really responsive to my wants and needs. I agree with you Jeff,
