THE HIDDEN COST OF POOR COMMUNICATION

Here’s the brutal truth: The average dealership misses 22% of incoming calls—that’s $47,000 in lost gross profit every month. While you’re wrestling with dropped calls, complicated transfers, and sky-high phone bills, our dealer’s are closing deals.

WELCOME TO

DEALERTEL SERVICES

Thanks for stopping by. If you’re like most dealers, you’re probably here because something about your phone system isn’t quite right—missed opportunities, lack of visibility, or maybe just a feeling that this critical technology should be doing more for your business.

OUR STORY: FROM THE DEALER SEAT TO YOUR SOLUTION

After owning dealerships for years, I thought I understood most aspects of running a successful dealership. But it wasn’t until I served on the Technology Board of the largest DMS provider that I had my “aha” moment.

Here’s what struck me: We were discussing every conceivable dealer technology—except phones. At that time not a single DMS company had a telecom offering. Yet the phone is literally the only technology a dealership can’t survive without for even a single day. It touches every customer, every opportunity, every service appointment.

I convinced the DMS Company CEO to pursue a telecom offering, and they did. But watching them—and others—treat phone systems as just another tool to prevent DMS defection rather than a dealership revenue driver, I knew there had to be a better way.

OUR STORY

FROM THE DEALER SEAT TO YOUR SOLUTION

After owning dealerships for years, I thought I understood every aspect of running a successful dealership. But it wasn't until I served on the Technology Board of the largest DMS provider that I had my "aha" moment. Here's what struck me: We were discussing every conceivable dealer technology—except phones. At that time not a single DMS company had a telecom offering. Yet the phone is literally the only technology a dealership can't survive without for even a single day. It touches every customer, every opportunity, every service appointment. I convinced the CEO to pursue a telecom offering, and they did. But watching them—and others—treat phone systems as just another tool to prevent DMS defection rather than a revenue driver, I knew there had to be a better way.

BUILDING SOMETHING BETTER

That realization launched me into over a decade of building dealership-exclusive telecom companies. What I discovered through hundreds of implementations was eye-opening: when properly implemented with the right analytics, a dealership phone system delivers better ROI and CSI improvements than even your DMS investment.

But here’s what I found when I surveyed the telecom landscape:

  • DMS add-ons with limited functionality, designed more for DMS retention than results
  • Generic phone companies with zero understanding of our business
  • Systems missing the crucial integrations that make everything work seamlessly

WHY DEALERTEL SERVICES EXISTS

I created DealerTEL Services because dealers deserve better. You need someone who’s not just selling you technology, but who’s actually been in your seat, faced your challenges, and understands what really drives dealership success.

After evaluating every option in the market, I partnered with CallRevu because they checked all the boxes my dealership clients needed. Together, we deliver individualized solutions that integrate into the way YOU manage your store—not forcing you to adapt to some one-size-fits-all system.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

Think of us like your trusted insurance advisor. We:

  • Ensure you get the most cost-effective solution for YOUR specific needs
  • Maximize both your ROI and CSI scores
  • Evaluation and optimization of your telecom spend
  • Share what’s working at other successful dealerships

The best part? Our expertise comes at no additional cost to your store. We’re compensated by our partners, which means our success is tied directly to yours.

LET'S CONNECT

I genuinely enjoy talking with fellow dealers about what’s working and where we can help improve operations. With 30+ Years of dealership ownerships and over a decade focused exclusively on dealership telecom, I’ve collected insights that I’m always happy to share.

Whether you’re ready to transform your phone system or just want to explore what’s possible, let’s talk. Sometimes the best solutions come from conversations between people who’ve been in the trenches.

Looking forward to connecting,

Richard B. GM, Brickell Luxury Motors

"We were hemorrhaging money on our phone bill and didn't even know it. CallRevu found $3,200 in monthly savings, then their call tracking helped us rescue 47 deals in our first month alone. This system literally prints money."

Chad M. President, Martin Auto Group

"Our CSI scores jumped from 79% to 94% in four months. The real-time alerts are game-changers—we catch problems before customers complain. My managers can coach from anywhere, and our appointment show rate is up 38%."

Bill B. COO, Jerry's Auto Group

"Between the phone bill savings and recovered lost opportunities, we've added $127,000 to our bottom line. The ROI tracking dashboard proves it every month. If you're not using this system, you're leaving money on the table."

EVERY DAY YOU WAIT COSTS YOU THOUSANDS IN LOST REVENUE
