Auto Dealerships 90-day fee/work pause

Your hottest leads are going cold while your BDC team plays phone tag.

Internet leads wait 30+ minutes for a response while BDC agents spend 80% of their time on repetitive follow-up.

AI workers take over the routine work of this role, while your team keeps the judgment calls. AI workers handle lead response, follow-up, and service scheduling end-to-end.

Target go-live: about 30 days from kickoff. Your timeline is set in your SOW.

The challenge

Your BDC reality

Lead follow-up and phone tag are killing your conversion rates.

01

Internet leads go cold in 30+ minutes

While your BDC team is already overwhelmed — 60% of leads never get a response

02

Your BDC agents spend 80% of their time on repetitive follow-up calls

Instead of converting high-intent prospects

03

Service scheduling is a game of phone tag

Customers don't answer, callbacks get missed, and appointments slip away

04

Your BDC team is stuck on repetitive work

Agents spend most of their time on repeated follow-up while leads go cold

Handled by AI workers

Routine workflows, handled by AI workers with a named person for exceptions

We don't deflect leads. We convert them — completely, with full CRM integration.

Internet Lead Response
Before — manual

Lead submitted → Waits in queue → BDC agent calls (30+ min delay) → Leave voicemail → Send template email → Move to follow-up list → Lead buys elsewhere (60%+ lost)

After — handed to AI

Lead submitted → AI drafts SMS and email response → Qualifies via conversation → Schedules appointment → Alerts sales team

BDC Follow-up Automation
Before — manual

Lead not ready → Add to follow-up list → BDC calls 3, 7, 14 days later → Leave voicemail → Send template email → 80% of calls go unanswered → Lead forgotten

After — handed to AI

AI automatically follows up via SMS, email, and calls → Personalizes based on vehicle interest → Handles objections → Books appointments → Never forgets a lead

Service Scheduling
Before — manual

Customer calls for appointment → Put on hold → Check advisor availability → Call back → Tag continues → Appointment delayed 2-3 days → Customer frustrated

After — handed to AI

AI handles incoming service calls → Checks real-time availability → Books appointment → Sends confirmation → Reminders automatically

Tools vs. workstreams

Why not just use [industry tool]?

Good question. Here's the difference between adding tools and replacing workstreams.

DealerSocket / VinSolutions CRM

CRM platforms

— Excellent for lead tracking but still requires humans to make calls, send follow-ups, and convert leads
Leverwork

Leverwork handles the entire BDC workflow — initial response, follow-ups, objection handling, and appointment booking. AI never misses a lead.

Xtime Service Scheduling

Service scheduling platform

— Great for online scheduling but doesn't handle inbound calls, phone tag, or appointment confirmation follow-up
Leverwork

Full integration with CDK, Reynolds, and Xtime. AI handles inbound service calls, books appointments, and confirms automatically.

Offshore BDC centers

Human support

— Timezone coverage, communication quality, turnover, and follow-up consistency still need close management
Leverwork

AI follows the same playbook on every lead and never misses a scheduled follow-up.

Illustrative scenario

A dealership group handling 1,200+ internet leads a month, averaging 45-minute response times and losing 65% of leads before first contact, could expect Leverwork to take over lead response, follow-up, and service scheduling, with staff focused on in-person customers.
Illustrative scenario
Honest fit

Is Leverwork right for you?

Honest answer: sometimes we're not.

This works best if…

  • Dealerships with 500+ internet leads/month
  • Dealers using CDK, Reynolds, DealerSocket, or VinSolutions
  • Teams spending 50%+ of BDC time on repetitive follow-up
  • Dealerships struggling with lead response time and service scheduling

Not ideal if…

— Dealerships with fewer than 100 internet leads/month, dealers that already have strong BDC processes with under 15 min response times, or dealerships that rely heavily on walk-in traffic vs. internet leads. Also not ideal if you want AI to assist (not replace) your BDC agents.

Put AI to work. Keep your people leading.

A 20-minute call. We'll show you which seats AI can take over — and where humans stay essential.
