The "Lead Drought" Problem
Generic lead platforms flood your inbox with tire-kickers, not serious buyers—think unqualified inquiries for high-end trucks from out-of-state shoppers who never show for test drives
Manual sifting through service inquiries wastes hours that could be spent closing deals, like sorting oil change requests from actual SUV trade-in prospects
Outdated CRM data leads to missed follow-ups on hot prospects during peak seasons
Fragmented tools mean lost visibility into buyer intent from test drive bookings, such as missed signals on electric vehicle preferences from online scheduling data
Seasonal demand spikes overwhelm your team with unqualified online inquiries
Seasonal demand spikes overwhelm your team with unqualified online inquiries, like summer floods of boat-towing SUV leads that don't convert to lot visits

What Makes Us Different:
Drive More Sales with Precision Leads
Boost Close Rates by 35%
Boost Close Rates by 35%: Our AI scores leads using dealership-specific metrics like vehicle affinity (e.g., matching past F-150 browsers to truck inventory) and urgency signals from financing pre-approvals, ensuring your team prioritizes prospects who convert 35% faster than industry averages—within 90 days of implementation. No more chasing shadows—focus on buyers with keys in hand.
Cut Lead Acquisition Costs in Half
Cut Lead Acquisition Costs in Half: By automating sourcing from precise automotive channels like Edmunds listings and local DMV trade data, we reduce your reliance on expensive paid ads for model-specific campaigns. Dealerships see <span class="gradient">50% lower costs per lead</span> on average within the first quarter, freeing budget for inventory acquisitions like expanding EV stock and staff incentives.
Accelerate Response Times to Under 5 Minutes
Accelerate Response Times to Under 5 Minutes: Instant notifications via SMS for new test drive bookings and auto-filled follow-up scripts tailored to vehicle inquiries (e.g., 'Ready for that hybrid test drive?') mean no lead goes cold. In a market where 78% of buyers shop multiple dealerships for crossovers, this edge captures 25% more conversions before competitors respond, proven in high-volume Q4 sales rushes.
What Clients Say
""Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in leads from every direction, but half weren't even local buyers seeking our regional inventory. Their custom system now pulls in qualified prospects from targeted searches on models like Toyota RAV4s, and we've closed 18 more deals in the last quarter alone—mostly on SUVs during the family back-to-school season rush.""
Mike Reynolds
General Manager, Riverside Chevrolet in Riverside, CA
""Integrating this with our CDK Global DMS was seamless, and the AI enrichment on trade-ins—using real-time Kelley Blue Book data—has been a game-changer. We used to lose follow-ups because of bad valuation data on sedans; now, leads come pre-scored by conversion potential, and our sales team hit 120% of quota last month without adding headcount, even during end-of-year inventory clears.""
Sarah Patel
Sales Director, Horizon Ford Dealership in Phoenix, AZ
""As a smaller dealership, we couldn't afford big lead gen services focused on new cars. AIQ built something that fits our used car focus perfectly—targeting off-lease returns from Hertz fleets and local trades on compact cars. Lead volume is up 40% year-over-year, and we've cut our Google Ads spend by $3K monthly while boosting used Honda Civic sales.""

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI handle the unique data needs of car dealerships?
Our system is designed specifically for automotive workflows, pulling from sources like vehicle registries and financing databases to enrich leads with details such as model preferences and trade-in estimates. We train the AI on your historical sales data to score leads accurately—factoring in local market trends, like SUV demand in suburban areas. This goes beyond generic tools by integrating directly with your DMS, ensuring leads include VIN matches and service history. Dealerships typically see setup in 4-6 weeks, with immediate improvements in lead quality. It's all custom-built, so it evolves with your inventory and sales strategies, avoiding the pitfalls of one-size-fits-all platforms that ignore industry nuances.
What makes this different from standard lead gen software like Dealer.com?
Unlike subscription-based platforms that lock you into rigid templates, we build a owned AI system tailored to your dealership's exact processes—from capturing test drive requests to predicting financing approvals. Standard tools often deliver broad, low-intent leads, but ours uses advanced scraping and enrichment to focus on high-value prospects, like those searching for specific trims in your ZIP code. We've helped clients reduce lead costs by 45% while increasing closes, because it's not assembled from off-the-shelf parts—it's engineered for scalability and your unique bottlenecks, like managing used car flips during trade-in seasons. You own the code, so no vendor hikes or integration headaches.
How quickly can we see results after implementation?
Most dealerships notice a uptick in qualified leads within the first two weeks post-launch, as the AI begins sourcing and scoring from day one. Full integration with your CRM takes about 4 weeks, after which conversion rates typically rise 25-35%, based on benchmarks from similar automotive clients. For example, one partner saw 15% more walk-ins from enriched online leads in their first month. We monitor performance closely, refining the model with your data to accelerate ROI—think faster follow-ups on hot prospects during end-of-month pushes. It's efficient because we start with your existing data, minimizing disruption to your sales floor.
Is this solution secure for handling customer data in the auto industry?
Absolutely—security is paramount in automotive, where leads involve sensitive info like credit details and vehicle ownership. We build with enterprise-grade encryption and comply with regulations like TCPA, CCPA, and dealership-specific standards from NADA. Data is stored in your controlled environment, not ours, ensuring you maintain ownership and audit trails. Our systems include anomaly detection to flag potential breaches, and we've audited integrations with major DMS providers for zero vulnerabilities. Clients in regulated setups, like franchise operations, appreciate this because it prevents costly fines while keeping lead flows uninterrupted. It's peace of mind engineered in from the start.
Can this scale if our dealership expands or adds new locations?
Yes, our architecture is built for growth—modular and cloud-agnostic, it scales effortlessly as you add lots or enter new markets. For multi-location dealerships, we customize regional targeting, like pulling leads for electric vehicle incentives in California versus trucks in Texas. One client expanded from two to five sites and saw lead volume triple without performance dips, thanks to auto-balancing algorithms. We include ongoing support to adapt for changes, such as new OEM partnerships, ensuring your investment compounds. It's not a static tool; it's a flexible asset that matches your ambitions, from single-store efficiency to group-wide dominance.
What if we already have a CRM—will this integrate smoothly?
Integration is our specialty; we connect seamlessly with popular automotive CRMs like VinSolutions, Dealertrack, or Salesforce, using deep API links for two-way data sync. No more manual exports—leads flow directly into your pipeline with enriched fields like estimated trade value and buyer timeline. We've handled complex setups for dealerships juggling multiple systems, reducing data silos by 80%. The process starts with a quick audit to map your workflow, then we build custom connectors that handle high-volume traffic without lag. Post-launch, it's hands-off for your team, letting you focus on deals while the AI keeps everything aligned and up-to-date.
