Recapture™

The average lead conversion rate on dealership websites is only 2%-4% for sales and around 12% for service and parts leaving dealers with no way to connect with 88%-96% of their unique visitors because they do not call, complete a form fill or chat.

RECAPTURE™ changes all that as the industry’s only lost shopper capture and marketing automation program. Each site visitor that leaves without conversion is identified and pushed through our proprietary Audience IQ™ platform where actionable marketing data is appended and validated using industry leading sources. Each prospect is marketed to using personalized email, direct mail and mobile marketing to increase lost-shopper sell-through rates exponentially.

Equity+

Equity+ focuses on delivering personalized messages to 4-Core audiences in the dealership DMS. Each message including the trade-in offer, upgrade offer, service offer and warranty offer is completely custom to the prospect receiving it based on the audience segment they belong to.

Equity+ uses artificial intelligence “ai” to scan over 100 attributes of each prospect including purchase and service history, lifestyle changes, credit and vehicle equity to identify the best vehicle to give them a custom upgrade quote each quarter.
