How to Keep Children Safer During Summertime Travel

How to Keep Children Safer During Summertime Travel


As families take to the highways and airways this summer, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) wants to remind parents and guardians about some tips to help make the traveling experience more enjoyable and minimize some of the potential risks. 

Whether traveling solo or with family, parents and guardians need to talk with children about safety before boarding a plane, train, or bus this summer season. Crowds are greater this time of year and children may easily become separated from their parents and guardians. If that should happen, parents and guardians need a plan and children should be taught what to do.

And remember: child safety is a year-round priority. Parents and guardians need to look out for kids and keep communication lines open 365 days a year!
If your child is flying or riding a train or bus this summer, NCMEC urges parents and guardians to remember the following travel safety tips:
  • When you make reservations for your child, specify whether your child will be traveling alone.

  • Whenever possible, book a non-stop flight or direct route. Avoid booking the last flight of the day.

  • Plan to visit the airport, train or bus terminal prior to departure. Let your child know what to expect, so the experience will not be so intimidating.

  • In case of delay or cancellation, remain at the station or gate until the train, plane or bus departs.

  • Make sure children travel with proper identification and parents or guardian contact information.

  • Always have a back-up plan for the person or people meeting the plane at the destination, in case they are delayed.

  • Encourage children not to become too friendly with other passengers or to reveal any personal information.
  • Remind them that the flight attendant is the adult to go to if they are uncomfortable or need assistance.

I know... it's a fad...

Tom Callahan, Ford Lincoln Mercury Digital Team

I know... it's a fad... who would want a car dealer on their Facebook or Twitter?? Why would we spend money on something I cannot manage or measure? Social... bocial... loco...

I have two words for the people I meet that have a "step back" attitude when it comes to Facebook...
Wake Up!

I have been working at dealerships since 1978, and the top salesperson who never took any ups was the social champion of the store IN 1978! In fact, you know the guy - because there was one at every store I worked. He had a social network that kept feeding him referrals day after day and anyone that ever got a car or truck from him never forgot him because HE WOULDN'T LET THEM. The funny part was that he did it without twitter, facebook, ning, linkedin or bebo, he did it the "old fashion way."

He was the guy who took a box full of Christmas cards to the business office and the owner bought the stamps. He was the guy who always sent a "Thank You" card for buying from him and I even saw him send a card to people for coming in and taking a test drive after leaving to "think about it." He was the guy who did birthday cards to his clients with a hand-written note saying, "Call anytime if I can help and have a great day."

You know the guy, he was gone every first Tuesday of the month for a noon lunch with the local Rotary Club and was a proud member of the Chamber of Commerce. Man, he was a social butterfly and he knew a lot of people.

But more importantly, A LOT of people knew they could trust him with their referral. He was the first guy the owner called into his office when it was time to order more inventory, because he knew what the customer was thinking.

If there is one common mistake I see in stores today when it comes to our social opportunities, it's the person we put in charge. I see an Internet manager or Internet salesperson working leads and trying to sell and they should be left alone. The social networks today need a social butterfly that can take the sites and work them. It's all about connecting and reconnecting with people. It's about keeping Ford and all its great news today in front of a lot of people for a very low cost per thousand. Making time for social and having the right person involved at your store is so simple but we make it so difficult.

We should all take a moment to remember how the great social champions of the past did it year after year without a DSL connection. He did not go to the Rotary Club, the Optimist Club or the Kiwanis to sell a car. He went there to be social, meet other people in his market, and get to know them outside of work. He did not drop off the full page ad from Saturday, he went there to help the group raise $$$ for their cause... their mission. He got so busy working with so many people that he had to hire his own assistant to help him sell cars along with all the other projects.

So please wake up and take a look at your social set up today. Ask yourself if the format is to meet more people or sell more cars, because chances are you got it backwards. Find a social butterfly and simply ask them to take the plunge into the world of social networks. You can have a presence in your community but you have to make it to all the meetings. You can't show up and not get involved.

One of the great social champions I worked with in the past always told me: "If selling cars was easy... everyone would do it." Then he said with a grin: "They didn't buy my cars, they bought me!"

Used Car Prices Up

Used Car Prices Up - Except Recalled Toyotas'
March 15, 2010

Used car prices are up about 2 percent from last month, but the prices
of used Toyotas affected by the recalls are down about 2.5 percent,
according to Edmunds.com.

"Many used car buyers are turned off by the negative publicity
surrounding the Toyota recall, so prices of those vehicles are pacing at
about 4.5 percent below the market," said Edmunds.com Analyst Joe Spina.

Spina added: "Also contributing to the decline in values is the fact
that a fair number of Toyota Camry and Toyota Corolla models were
recently returned by rental fleets, making it somewhat of a buyers'
market for those vehicles."

Compared with this time last year, the average three-year-old midsize
sedan increased 6.6 percent in value, while the average three-year-old
Camry price is flat. Compared with January, before the Toyota recalls
came to light, prices for used Camry models are down almost 4.5 percent.
By comparison, Mazda 6 and Chevrolet Malibu have risen about 1.5
percent.

"Certainly there are bargains to be had because of Toyota's issues,"
noted Edmunds.com Senior Consumer Advice Editor Philip Reed.
"Car-shoppers are in a great position to negotiate, and once they pick
up a Toyota - or any used car -- they should immediately get their
contact information into the automaker's owner database to be kept up to
date on recalls and other alerts."

Listen Carefully To The Customer...

Listen Carefully To The Customer...

The best sales technique for selling customers any product involves a sequence of logical events occurring. A salesperson must understand what the customer wants, qualify that the customer can afford to purchase what they seek, and make an organized presentation that will result in a sale.

Listen Carefully To The Customer...

By listening carefully, a good car salesperson does not waste valuable time trying to sell something that will not interest their customer. Most car shoppers have a good idea of what they want before visiting any automobile agencies. Establishing the type of car being sought is essential to beginning a good sales presentation.

In the event that a customer is non-specific as to what they want, key questions should be asked to help them determine a logical type of vehicle to begin the selection process with. They will surely define if they need a family car, want a sports car for fun, or must find something that will maximize mileage for heavy use.

Qualify The Customer...

Many customers are less than realistic about what they want and what they can afford. The best sales technique in the world cannot be successful if your customer cannot afford the car that they want to buy. The process of qualifying a customer is simple, and involves asking them what their budget for a car purchase is. Without the parameters of what is possible financially, it is foolish to proceed with a sales presentation.

Show The Product, Eliminate The Obstacles...

Once a car salesperson knows what a customer wants/needs, and understands their financial ability to pay for a vehicle, the rest is actually quite easy. By having listened carefully, the salesperson can proceed to show their customer several possibilities. By the process of elimination, a logical choice can usually be found for a "test drive".

It is likely that a customer will present their potential reason for not buying a specific car during the selection process or test drive. Any reason for not buying represents an obstacle that a good salesperson should attempt to remove. As the reasons for not buying are removed, the sale is essentially accomplished.

Of course, asking for the sale is the final phase to any successful selling situation. One essential component for any sale is closing the deal. It does not have to be a high-pressure situation for a salesperson to ask their customer if they would like to see how easy it would be for them to take this car home with them today.

Conclusion...

Since all sales professionals are individuals, there is no one-size-fits-all formula for sales techniques guaranteed to work for everyone. A pleasant personality, willingness to be helpful, and strong product knowledge are the basic ingredients to successful selling. Beyond that, individual sales people should build upon their individual strengths to find a selling style that works for them. If customers sense that you are smart, helpful, and not bullying them to buy what you want to sell; they will likely become your faithful customer for years of repeat and referral business.

Monitor Your Competition With Free Online Tools

Monitor Your Competition With Free Online Tools

June 29, 2010 in Management, Tips & Advice by marijana
In today's competitive business environment, no company should remain ignorant of their competitors and how they operate and market their business. Obtaining information on the businesses you compete with allows you to always be a step ahead of them. You will be able to determine their strengths and weaknesses and use this knowledge to your advantage.
Monitoring your competition is essential for developing business strategies which will allow you to achieve the competitive edge, and fortunately, there are many online tools available to do competitor espionage through some simple and most importantly, legal techniques.
There are tools that you can use to learn about, for example, traffic volume of your competitor's website, details about their domain, mentions on social media sites, or receive alerts when they are mentioned in the press. Although this information may seem trivial to some, every little detail on your competition counts as it allows you to compare your performance with theirs. Many of these tools are available for free, so you'll only have to invest some time.
Here are some of the best free tools available online for tracking and monitoring your competition:
Yahoo! Site Explorer - Site Explorer allows you to explore all the web pages indexed by Yahoo! Search. View the most popular pages from any site including your competitors, dive into a comprehensive site map, and find pages that link to that site or any page.
Compete Search Analytics -Enter a site or a category to receive a list of keywords that refer  traffic to it, or enter a keyword to get a list of sites it refers traffic to.
Statbrain - Using different sources, Statbrain's algorithm estimates how many visitors a website attracts based on offsite factors  such as backlinks, Alexa Rank etc. Statbrain does not have access to log files or any counter information. The number of visits that Statbrain estimates gives you an idea of the number of visits that a website has, so you can compare your results with those of your competitors.
FeedCompare - If you use Feedburner to track your RSS subscribers you can compare the size of your feed to your competitors.
Xinu Returns - This is a great tool that gives statistics on website SEO, so you can learn how well your competitors' sites are doing in major search engines such as Google and Yahoo, social bookmarking sites, backlinks, etc. You can use this information to create strategy to outperform your competitors.
Google Trends For Websites - Google Trends for Websites gives you insights into the traffic and geographic visitation patterns of your website. You can compare your data with up to four of your competitors' websites and view related sites and top searches for each one.
Websitegrader -You can use this tool to measure the marketing effectiveness of your website. When grading a website, this tool looks at parameters such as website traffic, SEO, social popularity, website performance, and so forth. Websitegrader has a feature that allows you to compare your site with other websites, and see how you perform compared to the competition.
Google Alerts - You can use Google Alerts to set up searches for your compatitors company name and receive email notification on the latest mentions in Google search results. You can set up to 1,000 alerts per account, which allows you to monitor all your keywords and competitors.
SocialMention - SocialMention allows you to easily track and measure what people are saying about your competitors and your company across different social media sites and blogs in real-time.
