Summary

The company CarCodeSMS has developed an app that allows car buyers to contact salesmen directly via text message, without having to visit a dealership. The app uses Twilio SMS and is TCPA compliant, allowing customers to easily opt-out of communication if they wish. By providing a direct line of communication between the customer and dealer, CarCodeSMS aims to improve the car shopping experience by reducing pressure and increasing efficiency. The company plans to target enterprise car companies this year with the goal of on-boarding 2,500 dealerships using their platform.
