Market Scan Information Systems, the source of Profitcenter™, has announced it will provide product upgrades that it says deliver new features and functionality, as well as performance improvements at no charge to its customers.

According to the company, Profitcenter, in use at more than 3,000 automotive retailers nationwide, is a solution automobile retailers depend on to automate their sales and financial transactions.

“Our customers’ enthusiasm for the new Profitcenter features announced at the 2003 NADA show in February has been extraordinary,” said Ron Means, CEO, in making the announcement. “As a result and to express our gratitude to our customers for their continued endorsement of Profitcenter, we are offering an aggressive product upgrade program that allows our customers to profit from these new features immediately.”

The company says this product upgrade program enables Market Scan customers to utilize the benefits of Profitcenter’s A/B Pencil feature; allowing dealers to compare lease/purchase options on a single screen and speeding the deal structuring process.

“By providing these upgrades, we’ve been able to demonstrate the advanced features of Profitcenter to our customers,” said Frank Ah Sue, national director of customer support. “This will allow dealerships to create new opportunities to increase their ROI. As a part of this process, we are providing training on how these product upgrades can generate additional revenue streams for the dealership.”
