For car dealers, importers and showrooms · China
A buyer sends a photo of the car from your Facebook ad and asks “last price?”. The salesperson who saw it is off today, and by Monday the buyer has paid a deposit somewhere else.
EliteTeQ Inbox brings every vehicle enquiry from WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram into one shared inbox. Each buyer is assigned to a salesperson, tracked from enquiry to test drive to deposit, and the ad that brought them is recorded. Staff in Guangzhou and Shenzhen or anywhere else answer from one +86 business number, with office hours on Beijing time (CST).
No credit card required · Plans from $29/month

EliteTeQ Inbox works for car dealers, importers and showrooms in China on your existing +86 WhatsApp Business number. Customers see your business name as they do today, and your team answers from Guangzhou and Shenzhen or anywhere else.
WhatsApp isn’t used for domestic business in mainland China, where customers use WeChat. EliteTeQ Inbox is for Chinese exporters and trading companies whose overseas buyers in Africa and the Middle East message them on WhatsApp, so the whole sales team can follow every buyer.
Overseas buyers write in English, French, Arabic, Swahili and more. Your sales team replies in the buyer’s language; template messages can be created in English, French or Swahili.
Office hours are set day by day for each number. A common setup in Shenzhen or Guangzhou: weekdays open, Saturday mornings open, Sunday closed. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and the chat waits at the top of the list for the morning.
Guangzhou and Shenzhen carry wholesale and trade-fair volume; Beijing and Shanghai carry retail.
Shanghai Municipality · China's largest commercial and financial centre
Simplified Chinese product naming and receipting are baseline requirements. Car dealerships enquiries from Shanghai land in one shared inbox, so a quote never waits on one person’s phone.
Beijing Municipality · China's capital and a major commercial centre
Government and institutional activity sit alongside a large modern retail and restaurant sector serving a domestic customer base. Corporate customers routinely request official invoices for expenses. Beijing combines government and institutional activity with a large modern retail and restaurant sector serving a domestic customer base. Car dealerships enquiries from Beijing land in one shared inbox, so a quote never waits on one person’s phone.
Guangdong Province · a technology manufacturing and trade hub
Electronics manufacturing and trade give an unusually large share of wholesale and business-to-business activity alongside retail, with Hong Kong proximity adding cross-border flows. The binding constraint is wholesale speed with fapiao invoicing and wallet settlement. Shenzhen's economy centres on electronics manufacturing and trade, which gives it an unusually large share of wholesale and business-to-business activity alongside retail, and a customer base accustomed to rapid digital transactions. Car dealerships enquiries from Shenzhen land in one shared inbox, so a quote never waits on one person’s phone.
