Despite reports of August 2018 being a strong month for Sales nationally, for AutoPlay August was a down month with only a slight increase in Test Drives (up 0.3% from July) and a decrease in Leads (down 3.1%) and Sales (down 1.4%).  Despite Leads decreasing in August overall, Leads attributed to dealership websites increased by 1.2% (‘Web – Dealer’ increased by 1.2%). This was offset by Leads from most other sources decreasing across the board, including ‘Web – Classified’ falling by 5.5% from July to August, and Leads supplied by the dealers ‘Brand’ decreasing by 13.3% for the same period.  Test Drives were stable – likely due to the high volume of leads from previous months. Test Drives that originated from dealership website leads increased by 6.0%, and leads from the ‘Brand’ source increased by 5.1%. Conversely, Test Drives attributed to the ‘Direct’ lead source decreased by 11.8%  After an extremely strong July where the top 3 sources of Sales each increased by double digits, less Sales were recorded in August than July 2018. Sales attributed to the ‘Web – Dealer’ source decreased by 7.8%, ‘Repeat’ decreased 5.4% and ‘Web – Classified’ decreased by 6.6%.
