GUIDEPOINT ADDS SALES DIRECTOR FOR AUTO FINANCE CHANNEL

PONTIAC, Michigan, October 15, 2008 – GuidePoint Systems, a leading national supplier of GPS-based vehicle services, announced Werner H. Scherz has joined the company as sales director – auto finance channel.

The Pontiac, Mich.- based company said Scherz will help expand awareness of the Company among finance companies, particularly subprime and nonprime lenders. Guidepoint offers a comprehensive range of services to help finance companies increase collections efficiency, reduce vehicle repossession costs, and enhance their relationships with dealers.

Scherz joins Guidepoint from Credit Acceptance Corporation, a Southfield, Mich.-based publicly traded subprime auto finance company. Previously, he spent a decade at Enterprise Fleet Services, a division of Enterprise Rent-A-Car. He brings a variety of experiences in sales, product development and remarketing to his new post.

“We are pleased to have Werner join the Guidepoint team during these interesting economic times,” said Rand Mueller, chief executive officer and co-founder. “Given the current turbulence in the financial sector and the limited access to capital, every company needs to be looking at ways to most efficiently and profitably deploy its capital.
