CarJockey.com's Streamlines Automobile Trade, Accelerates Subscribing DealersOWENSBORO, Ky., April 28 Consumers may want to consider their local dealer's web site the next time that they are looking for a bargain on a vehicle. CarJockey.com's real time bidding solution, featuring "Absolute Sales" -- auctions that begin the bidding at $1 with no reserve, have made getting a deal a sure bet. The average selling price of these vehicles has been thousands of dollars below retail prices. Twenty-five dealerships from Denver, Colorado to Louisville, Kentucky have signed up to utilize the bidding system on their own web sites with new dealers being added daily. "Dealers utilizing our system make it possible for their retail customers to get the same deals that were previously only accessible to wholesalers and other dealers," said John Moore, Founder of CarJockey.com. "All these Internet companies trying to add another layer to vehicle trade are betting on the wrong horse. Our system gives dealers an Internet site that is a valuable sales and marketing tool, an outlet to reduce inventory levels, and at the same time reduces the expense involved in liquidating inventories." By utilizing the Internet, both buyers and sellers can streamline a process that previously involved travel, labor fees, transportation fees and unnecessary administrative costs. Utilizing the CarJockey.com bidding system provides dealers a medium to sell vehicles in an efficient and exciting manner. Allowing customers to bid directly from the dealer's web site also ensures the dealership's sales force will be comfortable helping consumers utilize the bidding system. "Our system is designed to benefit two entities, the automobile dealer and the retail customer," says Moore. "Automobile dealers have much better brand awareness in their own marketplace than probably every Internet company combined. Our system leverages this fact to produce a very successful trading place. We now have dealers selling the system for us." CarJockey.com is the only company that has developed an effective bidding solution for automobile dealers own web sites. The company began operations in December and in less than three months has implemented its system in five states with revenues growing at a rate of 100 percent a month.
