INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Covideo, an Indianapolis-based video messaging software company, has partnered with WheelsTV to launch a new, exclusive feature for its automotive users. The integration will give its users access to WheelsTV’s video test drive report library of more than 6,000 OEM-approved vehicle walk-around videos. Users can search the library by year, make and model, directly within their Covideo account. And, thanks to Covideo’s new merge feature that allows users to trim and combine videos, they’ll be able to include a personalized intro or outro along with the vehicle walk-around.

Both of our companies help dealers engage, inform, and convert their leads into customers through the power of video.

“This is one of the most exciting partnerships and features we’ve released to-date,” said Covideo CEO, Jason Price. “It will allow dealers to scale their video efforts, while minimizing required time, and provide a better, more polished experience for their buyers.”

Founded in 2004, Covideo is a market leader in video messaging, used by automotive dealerships worldwide. Through Covideo’s tool, internet managers, BDC teams, and car sales and service professionals can record, send and track videos across a variety of channels. 

WheelsTV provides thousands of auto dealers with premium, ready-to-use video test drive reports, covering most makes and models since 2008. Their award-winning video content gives buyers an in-depth look at the most popular cars on the road today, speeding their research and helping them make an informed buying decision with the hosting dealer. 

“The partnership with Covideo was a natural fit,” said WheelsTV CEO, Jim Barisano. “Both of our companies help dealers engage, inform, and convert their leads into customers through the power of video. Combining our comprehensive library of video test drive reports with Covideo’s ability to personalize the message, as well as host, send and track the videos - it just made sense.” 

Covideo is offering the premium feature to its automotive users free for the months of November and December.

“We know car dealers work really, really hard,” said Price. “And this last year has been especially difficult. We felt it was important to offer the feature as an early gift to our users as we move into the winter months, and help them to close out 2020 strong.”

Following the period of complimentary access, dealerships can continue to use the WheelsTV premium feature in Covideo for $100 per month.
