Network
Specialists, Inc. (NSI) and Stoneeagle.com, Inc. today announced
a strategic alliance where both companies intend to fully
integrate their products to provide a complete financial
management solution for independent automotive dealers. This
solution will be available to independent automotive dealers
needing accounting, F&I and payroll capabilities to manage
their dealerships, as well as a valuable e-business platform for
dealers to price, configure and contract service contracts and
extended warranties.
NSI and Stoneeagle.com have a unique combination of assets,
features and capabilities that bring value to independent
dealers, warranty companies and car buyers. NSI’s AutoPro
offers a feature rich dealer management system, allowing
independent dealers to have the same tools as franchise dealers
at a fraction of the cost. Utilizing AutoPro’s new-generation
ASP model or its more traditional PC based offering, dealers now
have a cost effective, low maintenance, and full-featured
solution.
"An alliance between Stoneeagle.com and AutoPro will
greatly enhance the way in which service contract providers
offer products to independent automotive dealers. Their
customers can finally benefit from insurance products that
protect their purchase because service contract providers will
now have the ability to reach them in a more cost effective
manner. AutoPro and Stoneeagle.com have created a simple
interface to take difficulty and risk of error out of the
process, stated Bobby Allen, President of Stoneeagle.com.
In addition to integrating products, the two companies will
engage in joint selling and marketing activities under a revenue
sharing model that has been put in place.
"Our relationship with Stoneeagle.com is a giant leap
forward for the independent automotive marketplace. AutoPro and
Stoneeagle.com will now provide independent automotive dealers
with a low cost DMS and a valuable new revenue source, service
contract providers with incremental revenue, and car buyers with
valuable purchase protection products. Additionally, AutoPro
will be offering our dealers the ultimate in reporting through
our integration of Stoneeagle.coms’ reporting capabilities
allowing dealers to measure and manage profitability – a win
win situation for everyone involved”, added Will Claren,
President of NSI.
