In addition to powering the search capabilities, InQuira 7 will also be utilized in Chrysler Group's customer service center, enabling service agents to more effectively find answers for customers. "In order for our company to continue to be successful in the online channel, it is imperative that we maximize the abilities of our websites to understand and respond to our customers' needs in real time," said Bonita Stewart, Chrysler Group's director of interactive communications. "Consumers expect to go to our websites and easily find answers to their questions. With the help of InQuira, we will be able to improve the website experience for consumers." "Bonita Stewart and her team at Chrysler Group are widely recognized for their innovative online marketing efforts, including the award-winning websites they have developed," said Mike Murphy, InQuira's CEO. "We are excited about the opportunity to work with them in taking these websites to a new level of ability to assist consumers in their purchase experiences, and improving the ability of Chrysler Group's customer service agents to deliver timely and accurate responses." "Any good salesperson knows that their ears¾not their mouth¾are the most important sales tool," said Dennis Galbraith, senior director of automotive marketing solutions at JD Power & Associates. "The search function is the 'ears' of a website. It is the one place where the site visitor can say 'this is what I came for,' or 'this is what I want you to tell me about.' How well your site 'listens' depends on how good your search tool is. As consumers become more Web-savvy, their experience and expectations of websites will grow. Any manufacturer investing in a robust search tool will be particularly well-positioned to exceed those expectations." About Chrysler Group About Chrysler Financial About InQuira
