DealerFlow: A Modern Dealer Management System for Independent Auto Dealerships
The Challenge
Independent auto dealerships in California face a fragmented technology landscape. Most rely on a patchwork of disconnected tools—spreadsheets for inventory, separate CRMs for leads, manual processes for finance applications, and limited visibility into which marketing channels actually drive sales.
The platform needed to:
- Unify inventory management with VIN-based enrichment and photo handling
- Centralize all incoming leads from websites, marketplaces, and third-party providers
- Enable secure digital finance application intake while staying compliant
- Expand marketplace visibility without complex licensing or expensive contracts
- Provide clear attribution reporting to identify highest-ROI channels
Our Solution
We built DealerFlow, a California-compliant Dealer Management SaaS platform that brings together inventory management, lead tracking, finance application intake, and marketplace visibility into a single modern operating environment.
Key Technical Implementations
Inventory Management System
Structured vehicle listings with VIN-based auto-enrichment that pulls make, model, year, trim, and specifications. Photo management with bulk upload, reordering, and optimization. Exportable feeds for online distribution across multiple platforms.
Integrated CRM Pipeline
Centralized lead management that captures every inquiry regardless of source—dealership websites, listing marketplaces, or third-party lead providers. Task-driven execution ensures no lead falls through the cracks with automatic assignment and follow-up tracking.
Syndication Bridge
A creative marketplace distribution layer that allows dealerships to expand their online presence across multiple listing platforms without requiring complex licensing agreements or costly partner contracts. Automated feed generation and sync.
Lead Attribution System
Full visibility into which channels generate the highest ROI. Tracks lead sources from first touch through sale, enabling data-driven marketing decisions and budget allocation.
Finance Application Intake
Secure digital credit application module that allows customers to submit applications online. Designed to be strictly compliant by focusing on data collection and dealer-side processing rather than underwriting or lending activity.
Automated Lead-Capture Inbox
Email parsing system that automatically captures leads from marketplace notifications, website contact forms, and third-party providers. Extracts customer information and creates CRM entries with full source attribution.
