CINCINNATI–Toy­ota buy­ers can now enjoy the “ulti­mate expe­ri­ence” in cus­tomer ser­vice at Beech­mont Toyota’s new cutting-edge facil­ity. Beech­mont Toy­ota is announc­ing that its new relo­cated deal­er­ship and show­room will be open to the pub­lic on Mon­day, Aug. 2. The new deal­er­ship is located at 8667 Beech­mont Ave., a mile and a half east of their pre­vi­ous loca­tion. The Dealership’s grand open­ing will occur later this fall.

Beech­mont Toy­ota chose to expand its facil­ity in order to sup­port the over­whelm­ing cus­tomer response they have received from their Life Care Plus life­time war­ranty, which pro­vides life­time cov­er­age on a vehi­cle pur­chased at Beech­mont Toy­ota for as long as the orig­i­nal cus­tomer owns the vehicle.

To help meet the dealership’s demands and com­mit­ment to pre­mier cus­tomer ser­vice, the new deal­er­ship will cel­e­brate the cre­ation of approx­i­mately 33 new jobs for both sales and ser­vice pro­fes­sion­als in the Greater Cincin­nati area, includ­ing a ded­i­cated Inter­net Sales staff, led by Steve Lan­g­ley, who pre­vi­ously worked as a Sup­plier for Toy­ota and as a ven­dor to the deal­er­ship net­work. A 20-year auto­mo­tive vet­eran, Lan­g­ley was respon­si­ble for sev­eral aspects of Project Plan­ning and Man­age­ment in his role as ven­dor to Toy­ota. In this role, he devel­oped the over­all new vehi­cle project mas­ter sched­ule and coor­di­nated the sup­port of pro­duc­tion local­iza­tion from Japan to the United States. Most recently, Lan­g­ley worked at OneCom­mand – Rela­tion­ship Per­for­mance Mar­ket­ing, where he trained deal­ers on multi-channel com­mu­ni­ca­tion best prac­tices and strate­gies to sup­port new cus­tomers and cus­tomer retention.

The deal­er­ship, which will be open seven days a week, will also include numer­ous ser­vice, sales, and tech­nol­ogy improve­ments, which will be announced at a later date. For instance, cus­tomers will be able to sched­ule main­te­nance appoint­ments online. And in total, the new facil­ity houses 31 ser­vice bays.

“With this new deal­er­ship, it is the cus­tomer who truly wins,” said Far­lon Smith, Gen­eral Man­ager, Beech­mont Toy­ota. “From the tech­nol­ogy advance­ments to the expanded ser­vice area to the vari­ety of customer-first ameni­ties, it’s about how we can bet­ter serve our cus­tomers and get them in and out quickly and effi­ciently. We want our sales and ser­vice cus­tomers to have the Beech­mont Toy­ota Ulti­mate Experience.”

As part of Beech­mont Toyota’s grand open­ing event to be held this fall, the deal­er­ship plans to include a clas­sic Toy­ota Car Show, which will fea­ture both factory-restored and cus­tomized Toy­ota vehi­cles from the past. Stay tuned in the next few months for more details.
