The DCi Mission

To help Buyers and Sellers communicate more effectively through visual, voice, data and knowledge technologies.

DCi CORPORATE

With over 40 years’ experience in the automotive aftermarket, DCi has become the leader in business-to-business communications solutions, for manufacturers marketing through the aftermarkets complex distribution channels.

Each service integrates with the customer’s internal processes and marketing strategies to provide seamless enhancements to their communications mix.

PRINT MEDIA DIVISION

This division was the basis of the original company. Founded over 20 years ago, we enabled manufacturers to move catalogs, price sheets and other printed collateral materials, in an expedient, cost-effective manner, from the creative-desktop environment to the parts store catalog rack or the product procurement division of a chain store. This led us into the printing business, which today is a large part of this division’s business, as we help manufacturers cut printing costs and turnaround time. A business-to-business database links various warehouse distributor, jobber/dealer and retail outlet customer records. Then, through a specially designed dupes removed process, we arrive at a net, no waste distribution list.

Print Media Division services include:

• MailServ^® - materials distribution to jobbers, WDs, buyers, etc.
• BulkServ^SM – bulk distribution services of printed materials
• Today Publications – performance and accessory- focused publications for jobbers, retailers and wholesalers

TELEMEDIA/INTERNET DIVISION

When interactive voice response telephony technologies were first introduced, DCi set about to develop its Telemedia/Internet Division. DCi’s Telemedia service helps manufacturers link consumers to local retail outlets through its DealerQuik^SM Local Dealer Toll-Free Telephone Networks. Specialty automotive manufacturers like Edelbrock, Warn, Dee Zee and Lund are just a few of the aftermarket brands using DealerQuik Networks. This service also helps manufacturers measure media effectiveness, with various reports tracking each call.

i-DealerQuik^SM, a companion service, integrates the Local Dealer Look-Up process with the manufacturer’s website. In addition, it turns the process into a 1-on-1 marketing tool by including an opt-in mail and e-mail consumer database. Recognizing that manufacturers in other industries could use these solutions, a special sales group now provides telephony solutions for non-automotive manufacturers, TV show producers and magazine publishers.

ELECTRONIC CATALOGING DIVISION

DCi established its Electronic Cataloging Division in 1997 as a result of its involvement in setting industry standards. This division’s services allow performance and accessory parts manufacturers to service all facets of their distribution channels’ electronic cataloging needs.
