A Complete CEP for Dealers & Dealer Groups

Reaching customers and keeping them engaged is no easy task. Traditional automotive marketing techniques have helped you build your business, but today’s media-saturated consumer can only be reached with personalized attention: sending the right message at the right time is crucial, and what works for one customer may not work for another.

With Outsell, dealerships and dealer groups finally have a modern solution to this problem. Our complete Customer Data and Engagement Platform allows you to market like a billion-dollar company—and in a way that customers have come to expect from their experiences with retailers like Target and Amazon—so you can focus on the in-person connections and local communities that define your business.

Our Solution

Outsell solves the impossible problem that dealers and dealer groups face on a daily basis: Where customers and prospects are in their purchase lifecycle.

Comprehensive Data Management

The Outsell journey begins with the information that you already have: first-party data collected from the prospects who visit your dealership and your website. We take that data, clean it up, and provide one central database with all the information you could need. From there, we continue to collect and consolidate the most useful, actionable information for your business.

Individual Dealers

Outsell manages your customer data and shares information with your current inventory syndication process. We collect information during every stage of the shopper’s journey, and share updates with your team at every step of the way.

Outsell integrates with your current CRM and DMS to provide the most actionable data in real time. We do this all securely, and in partnership with many of the certified vendor solutions and third party tools that you already use.

Our approach enables targeted outreach, increased customer retention, and improved overall program results.

Dealer Groups

What if you could manage an entire network of dealerships through a single database? Or break out your data from region to region with just a few clicks? Our centralized hub makes it easy to manage your entire Dealer Group at once.

Outsell eliminates data silos and creates a single view for each customer—no matter where they start or end their search. We can even apply unique and proprietary business rules across your entire dealership ecosystem.

Outsell is powerful when put to work for a single business, but the benefits of our platform increase exponentially at scale.

Buyer Detection & Consumer Profiles

icon-car

Today’s automotive shoppers expect to be understood as individuals, not demographics, and competing in the current market means understanding that no two shoppers have exactly the same wants or needs.

With the cookieless future upon us, it’s more important than ever for automotive retailers to leverage the data they have readily accessible—but there’s only so much that you can do on your own.

icon-relationships

When you add the Outsell platform to your business, you’ll have access to individual customer profiles that follow your visitors from sales to service and beyond, through each stage of the consumer lifecycle. With just a glance, Outsell puts all the information you need at your fingertips.

Clicking on any consumer’s profile allows you to see what kind of vehicle they drive, when they last took it in for service, how they’d prefer to be contacted, and what they’re shopping for right now—and this just scratches the surface. Outsell doesn’t just put current information at your fingertips; it also provides a comprehensive overview of each customer’s history.

If the consumer is returning to the market or looking for something specific, Outsell will notify you right away—often long before the consumer reaches out independently.

Predictive Marketing …

Outsell is an extension of your dealership’s marketing team that can work on autopilot, while providing the flexibility to customize and control communications as they target specific customers.

We don’t wait for customers to come to you. Instead, Outsell eliminates uncertainty and wasted time by identifying the channels that your customers will be most responsive to—and sending out those messages automatically.

Rather than requiring you to partner with multiple vendors, Outsell manages all of your communications:

icon-phone

Outsell Text

Today’s customers want to communicate on their own time. A phone call might work occasionally, but text messages cut through the clutter and facilitate a more positive customer interaction. With Outsell, it’s automatic.

icon-mail

Email & Direct Mail

There’s still a place for more traditional marketing techniques in today’s landscape. Our platform uses an understanding of each customer’s behavior to make full use of your existing database.

icon-computer

Social

Social media is where your customers already go to connect with the brands that matter to them. We’ll make sure that they connect with you too—and keep them connected with thoughtful, engaging content.

By offering a smarter way to follow up with customers, Outsell helps dealers eliminate expenses, combat limited staff, manage employee time more effectively, and get your teams back to what they do best—selling and servicing cars.

… For Every Stage of the Customer Journey

Vehicle ownership isn’t a one-time event: it’s a years-long experience. Meeting your customers where they are means participating in every part of that experience, adding value at every step of the way.

Outsell provides all of the information you need to ensure total customer satisfaction: today, six months from now, and on the day they decide to upgrade once again.

discovery discovery discovery

Discovery

Conquesting heats up at the discovery stage, where active in-market prospects and customers are thinking about acquiring a new vehicle and learning more about their options.

Equity and lease campaigns are even more important for customers who have yet to make an upgrade decision, and buyer detection works across channels to better target shoppers with specific VINs on your lot that they might be interested in.

shopping shopping shopping

Shopping

Outsell empowers your team with all the information you’ll need to close more sales and deliver exceptional customer service. Much of this information is at your disposal long before the customer walks through your door.

Our platform pushes low-hanging fruit over the edge with relevant marketing that recognizes shoppers and unsold leads. We then follow up with engaging and relevant content that shows why the models in your inventory deserve a closer look.

early-ownership early-ownership early-ownership

Early Ownership

Our early ownership campaigns focus on welcoming customers to the dealership, highlighting vehicle features, setting a monthly cadence for consistent communication, acquiring feedback, and starting their service journey.

These first few months are crucial if you want to build lasting relationships, and Outsell allows your messaging to make the greatest impact.

mid-ownership mid-ownership mid-ownership

Mid Ownership

Ongoing communications remind your customers of service and maintenance opportunities, while keeping your dealership top of mind.

Here, you can start to offer specials based on your inventory and monthly needs. This is the earliest stage we recommend targeting consumers with On-Demand email campaigns, such as ‘Move A Model’ or ‘Similar Payment’ equity campaigns.

late-ownership late-ownership late-ownership

Late Ownership

Customers may re-engage as they consider whether or not to continue to service a vehicle or purchase a new one. Outsell will be there at just the right time.

Automated conquest campaigns are available for acquiring prospects as new customers. Regular communications for current customers focus on equity and lease-end campaigns, and continue with lifecycle maintenance reminders.
