New solution allows dealerships to engage, nurture, and monetise consumer conversations around the clock

LONDON, Sept. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- LivePerson Automotive, a division of global conversational commerce solutions provider LivePerson, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPSN), and Moneypenny, world-leading call answering, live chat and communications provider, today announced a new managed services solution to offer automotive dealerships around-the-clock live messaging.

The new LivePerson Automotive Managed Services solution gives dealers the ability to engage, nurture, and monetise consumer messaging and phone conversations at any time — day or night — using Moneypenny's automotive team.

From sales support to booking test drives, LivePerson Automotive Managed Services can run a dealership's entire messaging operation, work with and skill a dealer's own experts, or cover nights and weekends.

"Moneypenny has been providing outsourced communications to the automotive industry since 2013, and we're delighted to work with LivePerson Automotive to combine the best digital technology services with our amazing team to answer enquiries no matter when they come in," said Jo McKeown, channel manager of automotive at Moneypenny. "In the competitive auto dealer marketplace, any missed customer engagement is a missed opportunity, so it's critical to connect with consumers on their own time."

"We're excited to bring two great companies together to provide even better service to our dealer customers, OEM partners, and consumers," said Thom Coupar-Evans, sales director for LivePerson Automotive UK. "Allowing customers to contact brands in the messaging channels they prefer at the times they prefer is essential to building strong relationships."
