Vehicle dealers
Every lead. One inbox. Nothing cold.
Listen
You're burning leads.
Every minute a hot enquiry sits unanswered, a buyer moves to the next dealer. Here's what's costing you deals right now:
- Slow follow-up — ready-to-buy shoppers don't wait. They book elsewhere within hours.
- Scattered inboxes — WhatsApp, email, AutoTrader and Facebook live in different places. Nobody sees the full picture.
- No prioritisation — reps chase tyre-kickers while hot leads with finance and test-drive intent go cold.
- Manager blind spot — you can't see who's replying, who's ghosting, or which deals are slipping away.
- Leads on personal phones — conversations walk out the door when a rep leaves.
AutoTrader, WhatsApp, email and Facebook Messenger — scattered across phones and mailboxes today. Lead Factory pulls every enquiry into one AI-scored inbox so your floor chases hot buyers first and your manager sees the whole picture.

WhatsApp, Facebook, AutoTrader & email — one inbox
Not another portal. Every enquiry lands in one timeline whether it came from AutoTrader, your Facebook page, WhatsApp Business or Gmail.
Replies go out from the dashboard via official APIs — not from rep personal phones.
