The software will allow dealerships to run programs without a heavy investment in new hardware, which was previously required with DealerAdvance™. Our goal is being realized and that is to quickly turn the company around and create shareholder value. The company expects to generate $1.3 million in revenue from the conversion of existing dealerships by the end of the year and an additional $5-$7 million for newly added dealerships by April 2008.”

The opportunity to earn millions from fast track sales promotions is now available for both DLAV and its dealerships. Dealers will no longer be required to purchase expensive hardware, as the application can be accessed and used from PCs anywhere, anytime.”
VP of Sales, Dave Scaturro discussed the ease of conversion of existing accounts and his expectations for 2008, suggesting that growth during 2008 should put the company in the black. “The conversion of our DA clients and the addition of new clients is all but certain because of their already successful experience with DA and the much superior attributes, especially the accessibility, that WebDA™ software offers from a PC anywhere.”
