Provides Automated Inventory Availability Alerts to Buyers

Milwaukee, Wis., March 22, 2016 — ARI Network Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIS) announced today the launch of Inventory Notifier. The new feature has been added to ARI’s award-winning Endeavor Dealer Website platform for powersports, outdoor power, marine and RV dealers.

Inventory Notifier allows dealers to capture more qualified leads by providing customers with a convenient path to request updates on dealer inventory that may not currently be in stock. If a customer doesn’t immediately find the product they are looking for, instead of moving on to a competitor’s website, they now have the opportunity to define their selection criteria and request email notification when matching inventory becomes available. Email notifications with a list of newly-arrived inventory that matches their request are sent automatically by Inventory Notifier.  All inventory requests are captured and available to dealers, providing immediate insights into current sales opportunities.

“Today’s consumers expect to research products online and connect with items that match their needs quickly and easily, ” said Brad Smith, ARI Vice President of Product Management. “If they can’t find what they’re looking for and no further research options are available, they’ll move on to another website. Inventory Notifier captures customer needs and automatically connects them to curated, newly-available inventory to drive increased lead capture and customer engagement, and ultimately help dealers sell more units.”

Dealers interested in learning more about ARI Dealer Websites should contact ARI at 800.755.6040.
