Activation

Shopper intelligence only matters when your team can act on it.

DPS helps route active demand into the workflows your dealership already uses, including BDC, CRM, internet department, sales floor, ads, email, direct mail, and service-to-sales campaigns.

The missing layer

Data does not create growth until it reaches the right workflow.

A shopper signal sitting in a dashboard does not help the store. DPS is built around activation: turning the signal into a next step your BDC, CRM, internet department, sales floor, marketing team, or service-to-sales workflow can actually use.

Activation plays

Turn intent data into campaigns your store can run.

Hot VDP follow-up

Route recent high-intent VDP behavior into BDC review, CRM notes, or identity-matched ads.

Model demand campaign

Build audiences around a model, trim, body style, or inventory priority.

Trade-in upgrade campaign

Target shoppers and households showing replacement, valuation, or ownership transition signals.

Service-to-sales campaign

Use service activity, mileage, ownership timing, and equity indicators to identify possible sales conversations.

Lease pull-ahead campaign

Organize lease maturity and timing signals into a clean renewal or replacement workflow.

Used inventory match

Connect used vehicle demand to price band, body style, inventory fit, and availability.

Conquest audience

Build campaigns around competitor model interest, category demand, or replacement behavior.

Activation models

Three ways to activate DPS intelligence.

Internal dealer activation

Your team receives the shopper intelligence and works it through existing sales, BDC, CRM, marketing, and service workflows.

DPS-supported activation

DPS helps plan, structure, and support the activation layer so the store has cleaner campaigns, better routing, and clearer next actions.

Hybrid activation

DPS supports the first-touch or audience activation layer while your dealership handles live conversations, appointments, trade-ins, financing, and closing.

The best activation path depends on the store. Some want the raw intelligence pushed into their internal team. Some want DPS to support campaign planning and routing. Some want a hybrid model where DPS helps activate the first touch and the dealership owns the live conversation. The diagnostic identifies the right path.

Workflows

Route the opportunity into the right workflow.

BDC tasking

Put better-timed shopper intelligence in front of the people responsible for first response.

CRM routing

Structure records and notes so the opportunity is easier to work inside existing systems.

Internet department handoff

Give internet teams more context around model interest, inventory fit, and campaign source.

Sales floor handoff

Help sales managers and reps understand which shoppers deserve attention and why.

Identity-matched ads

Build audiences around intent, model interest, inventory fit, and campaign priority.

Email activation where appropriate

Use email as part of a dealer-approved, opt-out-aware activation strategy.

Direct mail

Reach households with model, trade-in, equity, service, or retention opportunities where appropriate.

Dealer-approved manual follow-up

Give the team better context for human outreach.

Service-to-sales campaign routing

Turn fixed-ops activity into cleaner sales opportunity workflows.

Reply routing and notifications

Make sure interested responses get to the right person quickly with the right context.
