Unlocking Efficiency and Savings: Why Dealerships Should Outsource Title and Registration Processing

Running a dealership comes with its fair share of challenges, from managing sales to ensuring compliance with state regulations. One area that often gets overlooked is the cost and time associated with in-house title and registration processing. At Illinois Title Services, we specialize in helping dealerships streamline these operations, saving them both time and money while ensuring compliance with the Illinois Secretary of State and Department of Revenue.

The Hidden Costs of In-House Processing

Many dealerships handle title and registration processing internally, not realizing the full extent of the costs involved. Here’s a breakdown of common in-house expenses:

• Dedicated Title Clerk Salary: ~$50,000/year

• Training Costs: ~$2,000/year

• Office Space and Equipment: ~$500/month

• Processing Time: ~45 minutes per transaction

• Error Rates: Estimated 5% of transactions require costly corrections

For an average dealership processing 100 transactions monthly, these costs can add up to over $5,000 per month.
