IRVING, Texas — Software provider DealerSocket this week announced it has made massive investments over the past several months in its customer support team and across all aspects of how the company services customers. The investment was made as the company continues to focus on growth and also continues to invest in several major software enhancements.
DealerSocket has been hiring and training additional customer success managers and customer service engineers nationwide to support the company’s thousands of dealer customers. The firm has also invested in redeploying its customer success managers in the field. The goal of the customer success managers are to ensure dealers are utilizing DealerSocket's software to its full potential and to be their trusted advisors, officials said.

We are investing in all aspects of our support model as well as in our software to continue to build innovative functionality to serve our dealers," said Sejal Pietrzak, president and CEO of DealerSocket. “Our goal is to always be our customers’ trusted advisor, and we do that by providing outstanding service and understanding that every action we take benefits our dealers and helps them become more successful.”
