Market Scan Information Systems, Inc., a provider of automobile finance software, has announced the release of the new Quik Sales Kiosk for its customers’ showrooms. Designed to be placed on the sales floor, the Quik Sales Kiosk serves as a point-of-entry for customers visiting a dealer’s showroom looking to buy or lease a new or used vehicle.

“We created the Quik Sales Kiosk based on feedback from our customers who have asked for a tool to help them desk deals faster”, said Market Scan CEO, Rusty West. “It allows our customers to greet their prospects, learn about what type of vehicles they are interested in and what they have in trade, scan their driver’s license to obtain name, address, etc., and get their signature electronically as approval to pull credit. The sales person then ‘pushes’ the information instantly to the sales tower for the sales manager to order a credit report, find the best vehicles and financing options, and even book out the trade in a matter of minutes. It’s all done using the same touch screen technology as our Profitcenter system for easy installation and seamless integration with our customers’ existing Market Scan software,” added West.

Introduced at NADA in January 2002, sales of the Quik Sales Kiosk have far exceeded company expectations, according to Market Scan Chairman, Russell West. “It’s been very gratifying to see the results,” said Mr. West, “our customers told us what they needed to close deals faster and we built a solution that delivers. We even added enough memory so that all customer information can be stored and accessed for follow up marketing programs. Today’s shoppers are more educated and have less time then ever, so we created the Quik Sales Kiosk to make the shopping experience as fast and enjoyable as possible.”

Information about the Quik Sales Kiosk and Market Scan’s Profitcenter system is available by calling the company at 800.MKT.SCAN. “Our sales people are ready to give our customers and prospects a fast, no-obligation demonstration of the Quik Sales Kiosk and our entire suite of products,” said Market Scan Director of Marketing, Steve Hamburger. “We even encourage dealers to invite the competition for a side-by-side comparison to they can see the value of our products for themselves.”
