Dealership Email and SMS That Books ROs and Sells Cars
Email and SMS across the full customer lifecycle.
Sales, service, and recalls. Triggered by DMS signals and first-party identity — not generic blasts.
Of records on most dealer lists are dead, duplicate, or unreachable
Email and SMS across the full dealership lifecycle — sales, service, recalls. Most dealer programs underperform because the data underneath is broken. The data gets fixed first. Then the program runs.
Sales side — off-lease, off-finance, equity, sales events. Service side — retention, reactivation, schedule and maintenance. Recall side — OEM-provided lists and conquest recall campaigns against in-market shoppers. Each segment gets its own cadence, creative, and success metric. Service emails measured against ROs booked. Off-lease campaigns measured against trades captured. Not opens. Not clicks.
When WebID runs on the website, the shoppers who browsed inventory without filling out a form get a follow-up that references what they were actually looking at. Generic monthly newsletters don't sell cars.
The full lifecycle.
Off-lease, equity, events.
Off-lease, off-finance, equity, sales events. Triggered campaigns built from DMS signals and first-party identity — not list-blast batches.
Trades capturedRetention & reactivation.
Retention, reactivation, schedule and maintenance. The fixed-ops side of the customer base, finally getting the same attention as new-car buyers.
ROs bookedOEM lists & conquest.
OEM-provided lists and conquest recall campaigns. Open-recall data turned into service drives and conquest opportunities at the same time.
Service drive liftIntake is data first. Then segmentation against the actual workflow. Deliverability is watched weekly — the quiet program killer.
List audit, hygiene, NCOA, phone validation, segmentation gap analysis. Most dealer lists audited have 30–50% of records that are dead, duplicate, or unreachable. The dead weight gets cut. The missing fields get appended.
Segmentation maps to the actual sales and service workflow. Inbox placement, bounce rates, complaint rates — monitored weekly. Weekly cadence covers send volume, deliverability health, and attributed activity. Monthly reporting ties campaigns to ROs and units where the attribution exists.

The read. Measured in ROs and units.
Dead, duplicate, or unreachable on most dealer lists. The program runs only as well as the data underneath.
Inbox placement, bounce rates, complaint rates — the quiet program killer if no one is watching.
Campaigns tied to repair orders and units sold where the attribution exists. Not opens. Not clicks.
Most dealer programs send the same monthly newsletter to a list that's half dead, then grade themselves on opens. The work here starts at the data and ends at the DMS — everything in between is the program.
