The sessions will detail tips and tricks to getting more use out

of Chrome products. For instance, Chrome Carbook has several different

features a dealer can customize; everything from what years and makes

of vehicle are available to their online customers to whether dealers

want to display only their vehicle's advantages in side-by-side

comparisons.



"Chrome's products have hundreds of valuable features for dealers

that will help them order vehicles faster, better serve their

customers, quickly respond to fleet quotes and above all, make the job

of selling vehicles easier and more profitable," said David Mingle,

president and COO, Chrome Systems.



The training program, with a typical retail cost of $130, is

offered for free to Chrome clients in response to dealer requests for

training due to high turnover in dealerships and a desire to increase

their return on investment in Chrome's robust software tools.
