Service Turn powered by TEGA Technologies is a turnkey software solution that automates the way automotive dealerships turn their service customers into sales customers. The Service Turn™ platform supports a proven process that generates a nightly report of all high value service appointments that are coming into the service drive the next day. It integrates with book values, DMS and the dealership CRM. The Service Turn technology automatically identifies such items as current payoff, equity, book value, as well as a host of other valuable information. Service Turn's process then integrates these customers into real sales leads and provides point of sales material to help turn the service drive into a non-invasive selling drive. Service Turn dealers sell up to 6 times as many vehicles out of their service drive compared to non-Service Turn dealers.
MPi's leading service department software EDGE WorldClass™ is a powerful solution that creates trust by standardizing the inspection, estimating and recommendation processes. It empowers the service department and management team to build connections with customers that drive retention throughout the lifecycle of the vehicle.
According to a recent study of more than eight hundred franchise dealerships using MPi's system, EDGE WorldClass produces a much sought after average monthly up-sell from inspections of $81,996. With EDGE Service Turn™, MPi plans to provide yet another revenue source and further increase the ROI for its dealership clients.

EDGE Service Turn will be an even more powerful profit tool to help auto dealer service departments further connect with their customers and tap into every revenue opportunity," said Bill Hamlin, founder and CEO of TEGA Technologies and innovator of Service Turn™.
