AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — With the expected acquisition of AVALA Marketing Group on September 30, 2018, Rollick will provide manufacturers and retailers in distributed dealer networks with an efficient and effective end-to-end marketing solution. Rollick will become the first enterprise lead management solution connecting OEMs and dealers in the marine, powersports, RV and industrial equipment industries for a seamless retail shopping experience.

Rollick sends dealers and OEMs in the Rollick network higher quality buyers that convert at a higher rate, and with AVALAs technology, will also increase post-sale customer satisfaction and loyalty. The company offers the fair, open and connected shopping experience that modern buyers expect.
