AutoListener, a product division of The Listener Group involved in telephone-based market research and customer contact programs in the automotive retail industry, announced April 11 its alliance with The OCT Group (One Customer at a Time). According to the company, the alliance expands AutoListener’s current services while offering a wider array of customers programs, directly serving more than 2,000 retail automotive dealerships through its

combined customer base.

"The new strategic partnership will add value to each firm’s customer satisfaction package of

services," said Grant Dunning, OCT Group president and CEO. "The OCT Group will continue to gather valuable written survey information from automotive customers in three stages of the buying process: prospect, delivery and service. AutoListener will supplement that research with technologically advanced phone calling and computer communication methods. Information gathered by AutoListener will be hot-faxed or e-mailed to the dealership the same day, in order to resolve any issues and

to capture prime leads and opportunities for the dealers."

AutoListener says it provides programs that enable dealerships to take action

and build stronger customer relationships, while streamlining and improving

overall dealership performance. AutoListener relentlessly tracks every

floor-up, phone-up, Internet-up and be-back seven days a week, obtaining

the highest contact rate in the industry, according to the company.
