By partnering with VillageFax.com and utilizing their Internet Fax Service, CSAA has created new value for its customers. "VillageFax.com's Internet fax service allows us to offer the Vehicle Purchasing Service without investing in expensive hardware, software or the perpetual operational costs associated with those products," said John Turner, CSAA Channel Project Manager. "VillageFax.com's service automated the ordering process for us, giving our members access to the service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."

CSAA is embracing technology to provide more and better services for its members." The AAA Vehicle Purchasing Service is a free, easy-to-use, service for members who dread bargaining with a salesperson when purchasing a new vehicle. AAA members can purchase or lease a new car at a price that has been pre-negotiated with participating dealerships. The service can save members hundreds or even thousands of dollars off the manufacturer's suggested retail price for a new car. This application exemplifies one of the success factors for VillageFax.com -- its fax service allows online companies to work within their business partner's traditional business methods rather than requiring them to change. VillageFax.com works with their e-commerce partners to automate and solve fulfillment process challenges. To take advantage of the Vehicle Purchasing Service, AAA members complete an online form found on the CSAA Web site, http://www.csaa.com, describing the car they desire. The CSAA Web site automatically faxes the detailed car description and member contact information over the Internet to the appropriate auto dealer via VillageFax.com's Internet fax service. CSAA's Vehicle Purchasing Service eliminates the time demands and possible headaches members experience when shopping for a new car. This is another example of VillageFax.com's ability to provide powerful and flexible integration to Web-based applications by offering carrier class, efficient, and economical Internet Fax Services.
