Protective, VisionMenu Partnership Offers Product Rating and Enrollment Web Service
CHESTERFIELD - VisionMenu Inc. announced a partnership with Protective’s Asset Protection Division to offer product rating and enrollment Web services through VisionMenu.
As a provider of menu software, custom reporting and desking tools, VisionMenu’s electronic integration with Protective will provide auto dealers with an enhanced online contract fulfillment process and a streamlined F&I buying experience for customers. VisionMenu also offers the ability to auto-populate all necessary customer and product information, allowing dealerships to laser print customer contracts.
“This new process will produce numerous benefits for dealership users. It not only provides value to our dealers by streamlining the F&I menu process, it also reduces errors that were once associated with manual product rating and enrollment,” said Ron Martin, VisionMenu president.
“We are pleased to align with VisionMenu. We believe VisionMenu delivers tremendous value to our mutual customers, and look forward to VisionMenu’s positive impact on dealership operations,” said Rick Kurtz, Protective dealer sales vice president.
