Rhino Automotive Launches with B2B Technologies Solution

ATLANTA (September 23, 2003) – Rhino Automotive Solutions announced the availability of the PencilPro™ Sales Management System, a Web-based tool developed by B2B Technologies. Rhino develops solutions for the automobile dealer market. PencilPro™ is a tool designed to directly improve dealership profitability. It automates many sales and sales management tasks such as creating deal worksheets and purchase worksheet presentations, managing inventory, and producing call lists and performance reports. Completely Web-based, there are no special equipment purchases or software installations required at a dealership.

“We looked carefully at the existing tools in the market and designed a new solution that will have the most direct impact on the dealership’s bottom line,” said Steve Thompson, Founder and President of Rhino Automotive. “We also looked carefully at many application development companies before selecting B2B Technologies as our system developers. They have done a tremendous job delivering on all our requirements and meeting all our deadlines.”

PencilPro integrates with the ADP, Reynolds, and UCS dealer management systems for daily inventory extractions. This process is completely automated, requiring no intervention by the dealership. This integration allows the system to provide intelligent vehicle searches, giving a salesperson the capability to quickly locate the vehicles that meet a specific customer’s price and feature requirements.

The end result is an increase in dealer profits. “We how have greater consistency in the way we desk deals, and our salespeople have done a much better job at holding gross and closing deals,” says Burnell Guyton, owner of Cobb Parkway Chevrolet in Smyrna, Georgia.
