The Challenge
Boch Automotive Dealerships, a prominent automotive dealer in New England, was grappling with the challenge of striking the right balance in their follow-up process. They aimed to convert quality leads into satisfied customers without overwhelming them with excessive follow-ups. As the company grew, this challenge became increasingly complex. They needed to ensure that their responses were prompt, thorough, and human-like, while also assessing the quality of incoming leads. Another significant issue was the ineffective email deliverability. Despite investing considerable time in crafting impressive emails, they were not reaching the customers as they were being filtered into spam.
About The Customer
Boch Automotive Dealerships is a leading automotive dealer serving new and used car shoppers throughout New England. The company is known for its prompt and efficient service, setting it apart from other dealerships in the region. Boch prides itself on its ability to handle high volumes of customer queries while maintaining customer satisfaction. However, the company's rapid growth brought with it challenges in managing follow-ups and assessing lead quality. They also faced issues with email deliverability, with many of their emails being filtered into spam.
The Solution
Boch Automotive Dealerships turned to Conversica's AI Automated Sales Assistant, 'Crystal', to address their challenges. Crystal's role was to enhance the responsiveness and efficiency of the dealership's follow-up process. The AI assistant was designed to provide quick, human-like responses to customer queries, thereby improving customer engagement and lead quality assessment. Additionally, Crystal helped identify serious issues in their sales process, particularly in email deliverability. The AI assistant illuminated the fact that many of their emails were being filtered into spam, preventing them from reaching the customers. Conversica also provided clear insights into which lead sources were worth investing in and which ones to drop. This allowed Boch to reallocate resources and manpower to focus on quality leads.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.

Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
