The Channels

## Multi-Channel Lead Generation

Each channel serves a different buyer stage. We run them in coordination -- not in isolation.

### Organic SEO

Leads That Cost Nothing Per Click

Vehicle-specific pages, service department content, and local SEO that rank your dealership for high-intent searches. Once you rank, every click is free. Organic leads typically convert at 3-5x higher than paid leads because buyers arrive pre-educated.

Avg CPL

$8-$40

Lead Quality

Very High

### Google Ads

Capture In-Market Buyers Now

Vehicle Listing Ads, Search campaigns for make/model/city terms, and Performance Max for inventory. Google Ads reaches buyers actively searching -- the highest purchase intent of any paid channel.

Avg CPL

$30-$90

Lead Quality

High

### Facebook & Marketplace

Discovery and Retargeting

Facebook Ads reach buyers who haven't started searching yet. Marketplace reaches buyers actively browsing inventory. Combined, they cover the full middle of the funnel and keep your brand top-of-mind through the long automotive purchase cycle.

Avg CPL

$20-$70

Lead Quality

Medium-High

### Marketplace Organic

Free Leads From Facebook Marketplace

Organic Facebook Marketplace listings generate Messenger leads at effectively zero cost-per-lead (assuming automated posting). For used-car lots especially, Marketplace is often the highest-volume lead source.

Avg CPL

$0-$5

Lead Quality

Medium

Attribution

## Know Exactly Where Every Lead Came From

Most dealerships are flying blind -- they know they got a lead, but not which ad, which keyword, or which channel drove it. That makes it impossible to make rational budget decisions.

We implement full-funnel tracking: UTM parameters on every campaign, GA4 conversion events, channel-specific call tracking numbers, and Meta Pixel events for Messenger leads. You see cost per lead, per channel, per campaign -- every month.

Call tracking numbers per channel to attribute phone leads

Monthly CPL report by source -- no vanity metrics

CRM integration to connect leads to closed deals
