Built for dealer groups

Every store. Every campaign. One honest number.

Group executives get their own portal: the whole book of marketing measured across rooftops, with the fairness rules printed on the page. We're an approved vendor for Lithia Motors — the largest publicly traded auto group in the country — and this portal is why groups keep us. What follows is the actual portal, on demo data.

Chapter one

Every rooftop, one roster.

Store Insights: campaigns, delivered, responses, appointments, matched sales and returned gross — per store, sorted by who's returning the most. Expand a row for that store's funnel and recent campaigns — then Open store to drop into the rooftop's full report.

Top 6 of 14 stores shown — the portal lists every rooftop, sortable by any column

Sales and repair orders are matched from each store’s DMS to campaign audiences, de-duplicated to real-world deals, and only counted while their campaign was in market. Stores marked No DMS ran campaigns and generated responses — without a feed their return shows an em-dash, not an invented zero.

Product UI · illustrative data

Notice the Kia store: no DMS feed, so its return says “Not measurable” — not a zero, and not a guess. That honesty is the whole product.

Chapter two

Open any rooftop — you're already inside.

Click a store on the roster and the portal drops you into it: that rooftop's State-of-the-Store report and the same live campaign dashboard the dealership sees — enclosed in your group's nav, no second login, no exported PDF that's a week stale by the time it lands.

Product UI · illustrative data

It’s not a summary of the store — it is the store’s screen, the same one the GM works from. The exec sees exactly what the dealership sees, with nothing translated in between.

Chapter three

The dollars, rolled up without flattery.

Invested → attributed gross → return multiple, across the group — counted only at stores where a DMS feed lets us prove it. Unmeasured spend never inflates the denominator, and unmeasured stores never fake a return.

Chapter four

The play your best store already proved.

Three rooftops ran the same buyback mailer and it returned. Six more sit on the identical audience and haven't touched it — so the portal counts the gap in dollars: what the group would earn if the winners' play spread. It's the one screen that turns a good quarter into a mandate.

Projected across the five rooftops we can measure — Demo Motors Kia has 6,300 more owners ready, but no DMS feed to prove a return. Roll the play out and the group knows what it earned within 90 days — measured, not promised.

Projections apply this play’s proven 2.4% response and the group’s average matched gross per sale to each rooftop’s eligible audience — a planning number, never a promise. Return is only ever counted where a DMS feed can prove it.

Product UI · illustrative data

No vendor volunteers this math — it’s the number that makes them replaceable. We put it on the exec’s home screen.

The Monday habit

Built for the Monday-morning meeting.

The portal exists so a group exec never has to ask a store — or a vendor — how marketing is going. The table already knows.

One login for the whole group

Group execs sign into their own portal — every rooftop's marketing on one screen. No per-store logins, no chasing stores for reports that arrive formatted fourteen different ways.

Per-store accountability

Every rooftop ranked by measured return, sortable by any column. The Monday meeting starts from the same table for everyone — and nobody hides behind a vendor's slide deck.

Open any rooftop

Click a store and you're inside it — the same State-of-the-Store report and live campaign dashboard the dealership sees, enclosed in your group's nav. No second login.

AI executive brief

A written brief on demand, grounded only in your group's numbers — plus a printable executive summary for the board deck.

Why this matters

The fairness rules are printed on the page.

Return is only counted where a DMS feed can prove it. Stores without a feed show em-dashes, never invented zeros — which is exactly why group execs trust the numbers that are there. A report that admits what it can't measure is the only kind worth ranking stores by.

Bring your toughest store. We'll measure it first.

A group demo walks your real rooftops through the portal — and shows you the plays your best stores should be spreading.
