"All of us are smarter than one of us!"
Sometimes the smallest things are what cause the most anxiety in doing business. With DealerSERVE Internet Smart Tools ( iSmartTools), we are providing improved website tools that will make life a bit more easier in maintaining your Internet presence. Many of these DealerSERVE iSmartTools will actually help generate more leads and perfect other processes for your business.
More ideas. Better products. As the world's first Open Platform CMS for the car dealer industry, DealerSERVE constantly receives ideas from our customers and our world-wide community of developers. iSmartTools is a result of those ideas:
- Smart CALCULATOR:
 With iSmartTools Smart CALCULATOR, we are giving product dealers the ability to control the Monthly Payment Calculators (Estimators) shown at their websites. Along with being able to create as many calculators as you want that can make real-time decision based on your preset parameters, you can also:
- Change the default Interest Rate at any time (from the back-end software)
- Set different default Interest Rates (e.g. one rate for NEW and another for PRE-OWNED)
- Set different default for different Brands (e.g. one for new VWs and one for new Volvos)
- Group products by any criteria to show calculations unique to each group
- Change calculators anytime you want (24/7... no waiting for Webmaster)
- Smart DISTRIBUTOR:
 What do you do if, for example, you have an inventory of 100 vehicles and you want to distributor all 100 to cars.com or autotrader.com? That's easy. You send ALL 100. However, what do you do if you have 300 vehicles, but only want to send 100? You get Smart DISTRIBUTOR, where you can:
- Fix your inventory accordingly (e.g. using one of the six DealerSERVE inventory modules)
- Determine the 100 vehicles (i.e. out of the 300) to be distributed
- Make iSmartTools always remember these 100 (until removed from inventory)
- Change your list (add/remove items) anytime you want, 24/7 (without waiting for anyone)
- Have different lists for different destinations (e.g. one for autotrader and one for cars.com)
- Smart DESCRIPTOR:
According to eBay Motors, ''VIN Decoders add pertinent information, but VIN Decoders don't sell cars. Quality Descriptions sell cars.''
DealerSERVE Smart Descriptor will give car dealers the ability to add descriptions to every part of a car. We are adding over 100 additional description fields to each of the 6 different Inventory Managers found in the DealerSERVE software. Experts say that people buy products for the simplest emotional reasons they can connect to those products. With Smart Descriptor, dealers can add non-technical descriptions to all parts of a vehicle to create emotional connections for customers.
- Smart PHOTO:
According to eBay Motors, listings with 24 or more pictures have a 115% higher chance of success than those with less. Listings with 40 or more picture have 75% higher chance of success. At 40 pictures, you have a 190% higher chance of success. Currently, DealerSERVE users can upload up to 32 photos per vehicle. We are increasing this to 100. A DealerSERVE user can upload up to 100 photos per vehicle.

- Smart FORM:
As powerful as the Internet is, and even after you have spent thousands of advertising, everything boils down to one tiny ''data collection'' form -- the link between you and the customer. Therefore, it's old technology for your website to be stuck with one type of form. DealerSERVE Smart Form is going to give you great flexibility including the ability to:
- Create your own forms on-the-fly
- Create from 1 field forms to 200+ fields forms
- Select the fields you want customers to see
- Determine the fields that are ''required''
- Set leads forwarding...
- Make different kinds of the same form (if you sell multiple brands)
- ...more features being recommended by dealers...
- Smart PRICE MANAGER:
Maybe you are having a weekend special sale (or a tent sale) and you want the prices at your website to be removed (or hidden from customers). Maybe you are having a situation on a particular vehicle and you want the price to be quickly hidden from visitors. Maybe you simply want to hide the price from one vehicle (or your entire inventory). iSmartTools can help.
Smart PRICE MANAGER is a simple DealerSERVE module that will let you manipulate your prices without waiting for or depending on your Webmaster. Even if your website is not on the DealerSERVE Open Platform, you can still use Smart PRICE MANAGER, which has many neat features.
- Smart SITE SEARCH:
Smart SITE SEARCH is a suite of powerful algorithms that will give a dealer's website the functionality of a mini Google. Smart SITE SEARCH is not a Google plug-in or have any connection to Google. It is an all-new, from-the-ground-up software being developed by the DealerSERVE open platform world-wide team of developers. Features for your website to include:
- Visitors can type ''any keyword' and find ''everything'' relating to that keyword on one page.
