Fair proposal, the deal looks "OKAY" on paper - but what if I want everything - what would be total cost if we "bundled" EVERYTHING?? Sharpen your pencil and get back to me on this!

Wow Wow Wow!!! This is an all time favorite-maybe because I am a vendor and hear this all day from our competitors - (never us though, right!)

Great writing - don't let anybody ever tell you that you are just a "car guy."

Seriously Hilarious Post!

Ha! What day is it again? I'll bite if this is available tomorrow.

Jeff,

I've got your back...for $199 per month.

Good golly! I was actually buying this for a paragraph or two.... this is not fair on the first day of the month when I have been pounding out end of month reports since 7 am - I truly am in zombie mode, lol. Cheers!

Man why did you not tell me about this when we were scheduling the <a href="http://www.ismintraining.com/marketing/automotive-seo-marketing/automotive-seo-conference-wrap-up/" rel="nofollow">Automotive SEO Conference</a>. I could of got you a booth as a charter member for a big discount.

That would of been the perfect platform for announcing this.

@Jamie - we were holding back on the DGI evaluations for the time being. Too advance for most. ;)

I think that if I buy it within the next 10 minutes, I am entitled to a package of two for the same $199 plus shipping and handling, otherwise - no deal.
Also I assume that the operators are standing by, and the quantity is limited...

Well...golly Gee Wiz. I don't know where to start. I mean we're talkin bout(ODC ALS, NPS, ETW, WCA, RVS, TPVE, ICFP, PGP, ISR, SMTM,) ABCDEFG
My heads-a-spinnin. I think I need to hire a consultant to consult with me about which consulting services I may need from this DR consultant group...LOL

Good one.

Lot of time on your hands, I see.

This was as good or better than the "Car and Driver Chevy and Dodge being forced to pull out of Nascar by Obama" email.

I actually was going to sign up for the Ninja Phone Skills.

Well played!

This looks like a nice time to give Dealer Refresh some competition, since this is now technically going to be a Retail Website. To keep things on the up and up, I'd suggest another DR website to compliment the Consulting entity, linking out to it. However with all the real estate now dedicated to advertisers, Dealer Refresh will be perceived much differently than it is today when you fully implement your offerings. Some of us are looking for great ideas, and collaboration without having to pull out our credit cards, just for looking.

OMG, the hook was in my mouth! hahahaha Rack this post! It's a classic!

p.s. Looks like Chris K swallowed the hook!

Here I am thinking about how I want to get into consulting and working on trying to start my own company, Dealer Internet Sales Solutions (DISS) and I see this and I started to panic. I mean that was a lot of stuff to offer for very little money. I heard of giving away cars but giving away consulting (LOL).

Jeff, you are awesome.
R
Jeff,

You got me... Again! I was trying to figure out if each was an hour, and it was $199 per hour, with a minimum of an 8 hour day... How it could work. Almost as good as when the REAL Jeff Kershner was revealed on ADM at the last Digital Dealer held in Orlando. Keep up the great work, not only is DealerRefresh an inspiration, but you always remind the rest of us not to take ourselves so seriously that we forget to have fun.

Your friend... RP

I was reading your post and thinking omg he's lost his mind... you are too funny.

Jeff,

I can't tell you how disappointed I was to find that DGI evaluations were left out of your offer! Most dealers would be shocked to find out that their DGI is comparable to a can of Tuna Fish!

This was great. All I can say is "Sham-WOW"
