Results data from the first nine months using the platform showed a very positive picture. Sonic Automotive nearly doubled the number of sales appointments set per day and achieved the uplift in getting more people in the store that they were looking for from the platform.
Sonic Automotive operates over 100 dealerships spread across 13 states and 25 markets, representing approximately 25 automotive brands with the majority being luxury and imports brands. Sonic Automotive is an industry-leading automotive retailer committed to providing customers with an outstanding automotive experience that is delivered with professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm. The more people go to the dealerships, the more cars are sold. So, for Sonic Automotive the challenge was how to get more people into their dealerships.
Sonic Automotive implemented AmplifAI – a single platform with real-time performance dashboards and AI automation and tracking of performance management and social recognition functions.
Real-time updates on performance metrics, ongoing coaching and training, daily tasks and automated reminders, all minimized the need for constant oversight and management – and equipped employees and managers with the tools needed to perform each of their jobs with greater confidence and results.

Sonic Automotive started when O. Bruton Smith as a young man, fell in love with cars and began racing and building them in his parent’s garage and subsequently began selling them in his front yard. His passion for building, racing, and selling automobiles led him to open his first used car dealership in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Today, Sonic Automotive, as a public, Fortune 500 company and member of the Russell 2000 Index, is among the largest automotive retailers in the United States. The dealerships offer sales of both new and used cars and light trucks, sales of replacement parts, vehicle maintenance, warranty, paint and collision repair services, and extended warranty contracts, financing and insurance.

“We know we have a superior customer sales process in our stores, but in a highly competitive industry, getting them in the store, is the more than half the battle. AmplifAI helped us get more people into the store, but also let us see the results of our campaigns, and see and take action on our top and bottom performers!”
