2009 proved to be a tumultuous economy, one that the auto industry is still rebounding from in 2010. Swapalease.com bucked the trend, though, by continuing to grow and even reported increases in site traffic and lead generation. Traffic of consumers picking up leases, in particular, was on the rise last year due to the many benefits of taking over a lease on Swapalease: low monthly payments, short term commitment, and no money down.
"Our unique marketplace experienced a boost in 2009 partly because the economy was struggling and people needed a way out of their lease obligations without damaging their credit," explains Scot Hall, EVP of Operations for Swapalease.com. "We helped three times as many consumers out of their car leases in 2009 as we did in 2008 and helped eight times as many consumers to get into short term car leases, resulting in a win-win. Next year, as credit improves and repossessions decrease, Swapalease.com will have even more opportunities to help consumers."
Company officials point to improved social media integration and consumer engagement as a factor in improving awareness about Swapalease.com and stated that providing even greater customer satisfaction is the number one goal in 2010.
