CERTPOINT - Vuepoint and Toyota Motor Sales Partner to Deliver Dealer Knowledge on the Newest Brand in the Automotive Industry, the Scion

-- Toyota and Vuepoint demonstrate industry leadership with breakthrough online product launch --

LONG ISLAND, N.Y., July 22, 2003 - Vuepoint, Corp., a solutions provider that rapidly and effectively transfers product knowledge throughout enterprises and complex sales channels, today announced that Toyota Motor Sales (TMS), U.S.A., Inc., is successfully using Vuepoint’s solution to launch Scion, an entirely new product line.

Scion is an exciting brand targeted at an emerging group of new car buyers known as Generation Y (Gen Y). These vehicles demonstrate Toyota’s recognition of the future importance of Gen Y to the automotive market. Scion represents not only new products, but a new business and marketing model created with this buyer group in mind. For the first time in company and industry history, all of Toyota’s preparation and knowledge transfer for the Scion product and sales methodology has occurred online, resulting in faster time to market, increased cost-savings, and greater vehicle knowledge retention.

Utilizing Vuepoint’s VLS software, dealers are learning how to identify specific qualities of the Scion core customer group, their expectations and purchasing behavior, as well as the details of Scion’s “Pure Price” solution specially designed for Gen Y customers. Scion dealers also learn cutting-edge sales techniques that maximize technology to their sales advantage by incorporating online communications and tools into the sales process.

“This is more complicated than a typical product rollout, and Vuepoint’s contribution is integral to its success because it allows Toyota, in a very short time frame, to bring dealers across the country up to speed on Scion as well as how to relate to a new type of customer,” said Rick Taniguchi, Associate Dean of eLearning at the University of Toyota, founded in 1998 as part of the company’s “Business Revolution” campaign to streamline overall corporate operations.

Toyota selected Vuepoint VLS after reviewing platforms from over 20 other vendors. The decision ultimately came down to Vuepoint’s market leadership, technological flexibility, and substantial return on investment (ROI). To date, Toyota has utilized Vuepoint’s enterprise-wide solution to more quickly and effectively reach 60,000 Toyota and Lexus dealers nationwide with brand and product knowledge. Within 48 months, Toyota estimates it will realize over $15 million in hard savings by utilizing the Vuepoint solution to streamline and empower their dealership sales process.

“Vuepoint is excited to help Toyota launch and market a new brand and product to an entirely new market,” said Ara Ohanian, President and CEO of Vuepoint. “By equipping the sales force with key knowledge before many dealers will actually see the car in person or speak with a potential customer, Toyota gains a critical speed-to-market advantage in its highly competitive industry.”
