EtchGuard International on July 2 announced that its new presentation video is available for viewing online at www.etchguard.com.


This professionally produced “infomercial” explains the value of EtchGuard in 2½ minutes in a friendly, non-intimidating manner, according to company president and founder, Gerard Marino. “This video was designed for use in the business office, allowing the F&I person to have the benefits of EtchGuard explained by a ‘third party'," Marino said. "Just ask the customer to view the video while you complete some paperwork. Of course, not all business managers will choose to use it every time, but it's great having it for those hectic or off days, when you may not be 100 percent. Why lose a sale unnecessarily?”

With this streaming video, EtchGuard joins an elite list of companies who are using the Web for both information and training. Last week, Streaming Media Inc. reported that 21 percent of Fortune 100 companies are still not yet using streaming media.


“This type of technology is not easy nor inexpensive," Marino said. "But it demonstrates our commitment to our dealers. EtchGuard is not just some numbers etched into the glass. It’s a proven protection against professional theft and a fantastic profit center for a dealership when administered properly. I invite any interested dealer to go to www.etchguard.com and view the video.”


For information on any of EtchGuard’s products, visit www.etchguard.com or call 1-800-446-3136.
