The shopper has real questions
Is it in stock? What’s the payment? Is there a rate offer this month? A chat widget that says “leave your number” answers none of them.
The gap in every store9:47 PM · TUESDAY 8:15 AM · WEDNESDAY EVERY DAY
Your best shoppers show up after you close.
Car shopping happens at night, on a phone, in fragments. Most dealer websites run tools built to grab a phone number and hope. This page shows a transparent way to model the opportunity using your store's own data.

The lead is already cold
By the time your BDC calls back, that shopper has asked the same questions on three other sites. The first store with a useful answer gets the appointment.
Your website traffic leaks
Your site gets about 11,000 visits a month. Fewer than 5 in 100 fill out a form. Fewer than 1 in 100 buy. You paid for every one of them, in advertising, in your website provider, in third-party leads. The rest leave without a name, a conversation, or a reason to come in.
We don't have your numbers yet. Here's the math on a typical store, and we'll tell you which numbers are guesses.
Four of these are industry numbers. Two are our estimates, and they're marked. Bring your CRM numbers to the demo and we'll run yours. A 60-day pilot replaces all of it with your actual set, show, sold.
~11,000visits a month to the average dealer website(industry average)
108 of 168hours a week the store is closed. Nobody staffs 168.
~70conversations a month after hours, if 1 in 100 of those visitors starts one(our estimate; nobody publishes this)
~21appointments set, if 3 in 10 of those conversations set(our estimate; nobody has measured it for an AI yet)
~5sold from the closed hours alone, at 56% show and 42% sold from show(NADA / NCM)
~$3,000front and back gross per unit(industry average)
On the average dealer website, the math comes to about 10 more cars and $30,000 in gross a month. Half from the hours you're closed. Half from the leads already in your CRM. And it runs per rooftop.
The CRM half assumes a store selling 30 cars a month off internet leads, and counts a third of the lift Pied Piper saw when stores went from a weak lead response to a strong one. It's an illustration, not a promise. Your own numbers are the ones that count.
Benchmarks: NADA Data, NCM, Pied Piper. Estimates are yours to set at the demo.
