The brand promise

A customer walks in and decides in 30 seconds whether this dealership is for them.

The floors are polished. The cars are staged perfectly. The lighting is right. But the music — that is the part most dealerships get wrong. Dead silence feels clinical. A local radio station puts someone else's brand in your space. A personal playlist is a copyright lawsuit waiting to happen.

Your showroom tells customers what to expect from the buying experience. A luxury brand needs sophistication — jazz piano, ambient textures, classical restraint. A family dealership needs warmth — acoustic guitar, soft indie, easy-going soul. A high-volume lot needs energy — funk, lo-fi beats, confident grooves.

The service lounge is different again. Customers waiting for an oil change or warranty repair need patience-building calm. Research shows that ambient music reduces perceived wait time by up to 35%. A 45-minute service wait feels like 30 when the room sounds right.

The sound should match the brand — everywhere, automatically, all day long. That is what Puana does.

Multiple zones, one dashboard

Showroom. Service lounge. Offices. Each one sounds right.

A dealership isn't one space. The showroom floor needs confidence. The service lounge needs calm. The finance office needs focus. Puana lets you run different music in every zone — each with its own genre, energy, and schedule.

Showroom floor

Confidence

Polished jazz, ambient textures, modern classical. The sound of a brand that takes itself seriously.

Service lounge

Patience

Calm acoustic, lo-fi, downtempo. Wait times feel shorter. Customers stay relaxed.

Sales offices

Focus

Quiet ambient, soft piano. Low enough for conversation. Present enough to fill silence.

Saturday rush

Energy

Uptempo soul, indie pop, modern grooves. The lot is alive. Buyers feel momentum.

Tuesday morning

Warmth

Warm jazz, bossa nova, acoustic. Relaxed, inviting. Walk-ins feel welcome, not pressured.

After hours

Silence

Schedule it off. Or let the detail crew play what they want. Your rules.

From a cafe in Michigan

“I built Puana because every space deserves music that sounds like it belongs there — not someone else's playlist, not a corporate feed. Something with texture.”

Jesse Meria runs a cafe in Charlevoix, Michigan — a small town on Lake Michigan where every morning starts the same way. Before the espresso machine warms up, before the first customer walks in, the music starts. And the room goes from four walls to a feeling.

He built Puana because he couldn't find music that sounded like his space was supposed to sound. Not stock background noise. Not someone else's algorithm. Something warm, a little rough around the edges, alive.

Puana is a library of thousands of original tracks — each one composed to feel like it belongs somewhere real. Whether that's a lakeside cafe or a showroom floor, the principle is the same: the music should sound like the space is supposed to sound.

The math

That radio station in the showroom could cost you $30,000 per track.

Personal streaming services and radio aren't licensed for commercial use. The fine for copyright infringement is up to $30,000 per track. And 83% of businesses are doing it right now without knowing.

The “legal” alternative? A business music service ($25–30/mo) plus BMI ($250-500/year) plus ASCAP ($220-500/year) plus SESAC ($200-400/year). Total: $470-1,400+/year per year. Per location. And the music still sounds generic.

Common questions

Everything you need to know.

Do I need a separate music license for my dealership?

Not with Puana. Every track is original music with full commercial rights included in your subscription. No BMI, ASCAP, or SESAC fees. No third-party royalties. Your Puana subscription covers your showroom, service lounge, offices, and any other area where music plays.

Can I play different music in the showroom and service lounge?

Yes. Each zone gets its own schedule, genre mix, and energy level. Your showroom can play polished jazz while the service lounge plays calm ambient. Each zone runs independently on its own device.

What kind of music works best for a dealership?

It depends on your brand. Luxury dealerships tend toward sophisticated jazz, ambient, and classical. Family dealerships lean into warm acoustic, soft pop, and indie. Used car lots benefit from upbeat energy — funk, soul, lo-fi. Puana has thousands of original tracks across every genre, so you can match the sound to the brand.

Does music actually affect how long customers stay?

Research consistently shows that appropriate background music increases dwell time and reduces perceived wait time. In a service lounge, calm music makes a 45-minute oil change feel shorter. On the showroom floor, the right soundtrack keeps customers browsing longer and feeling more confident about the experience.

Can I filter out explicit content?

Yes. One toggle removes all tracks with explicit content across every genre and every zone. Family-friendly across your entire dealership, no surprises.

How do I set it up across multiple zones?

Each zone gets its own device — a tablet, laptop, or dedicated player. Each device connects to your Puana account and runs its own schedule. You manage everything from one dashboard. Add zones as you need them at $9.99/mo per extra device.
