700Credit Integrates With ActivEngage, Inc. to Reach More In-Market, Omnichannel Car Buyers

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Dec. 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- 700Credit LLC, the auto industry's leader in providing credit reports, compliance solutions and prescreen products and services, today announced it has integrated its consumer pre-qualification platform, QuickQualify into the ActivEngage live chat platform.

The addition of 700Credit's QuickQualify solution into ActivEngage's chat platform will help online car shoppers navigate the purchasing journey and expedite the dealership sales process. Chat representatives can push the "Get Pre-Qualified" short form to the consumer through the chat window. The platform enhancement will help automotive businesses:

• Prompt more sales appointments
• Receive enhanced customer information including live FICO score and auto tradeline information
• Align inventory options with customer budget
• Reduce store purchase time
• Streamline paperwork in the F&I process

"Combining our QuickQualify tool with ActivEngage chat provides dealers the unique opportunity to
reach more in-market shoppers in real time wherever they are researching potential vehicles online, and drive them into the dealership to purchase," said 700Credit's Ken Hill, Managing Director. "Once a shopper is at the dealership, the buying process is more efficient thanks to the enhanced customer information we're able to deliver into the CRM."

700Credit's decision to collaborate with ActivEngage was heavily influenced by the company's new
digital communications solution, ActivOne, designed to connect online shoppers to car dealers across digital channels such as Facebook, SMS, Craigslist, and Google. Additionally, ActivEngage employs a centrally-managed chat team that averages an 80 percent chat-to-lead conversion, above industry standards.

"We motivate and prepare online shoppers to purchase at the dealership. That's why, on average, 1 out of every 5 ActivEngage conversations results in a sales appointment. By adding the QuickQualify solution, we will be able to generate more conversational value and guide online shoppers deeper down the purchasing path," said Ted Rubin, COO ActivEngage.

The new QuickQualify chat feature will be available to new and existing ActivEngage customers. To learn more about 700Credit's QuickQualify tool visit:
