AI Dealership Followup Agent

The AI Dealership Followup Agent automatically reaches out to leads across SMS, email, and phone to qualify interest, answer common questions, and schedule test drives. It handles the repetitive work of first contact and qualification—eliminating response delays, reducing manual dialing, and keeping hot leads from going cold. The agent integrates with your CRM, learns your inventory and pricing, and maintains your dealership's tone while working around the clock.

How it works

ifolabs integrates your CRM, dealership inventory, and pricing data into the agent. We configure it to recognize intent patterns, answer vehicle-specific questions, and hand warm leads to your sales team with context attached. The agent deploys to production with full monitoring, audit trails for compliance, and feedback loops so your team trains it on real outcomes.

Frequently asked questions

Does the agent comply with telemarketing and SMS regulations?

Yes. We build in consent verification, DNC list checking, and TCPA-compliant message delivery. All calls and texts log timestamps and interaction records for audit purposes. Your team owns compliance responsibility; we provide the infrastructure.

What CRM systems does it integrate with?

We've built integrations for Dealer.com, DealerSocket, Pipedrive, and Salesforce. For others, we use API-first architecture. During discovery, we map your CRM schema and build custom connectors if needed.

Can it handle trade-in appraisals and finance questions?

Yes. We train it on your trade-in valuation ranges, current finance rates, and down payment options. It qualifies vehicle details and customer credit tier, then escalates complex scenarios to your finance manager with a structured handoff.

What happens when the agent can't answer or needs human help?

The agent recognizes confidence thresholds and transfers to your sales team via warm handoff—either SMS callback request, email with context, or routed call. We log the conversation so your rep sees what was already discussed.

How do you measure if it's working?

We track lead response time, qualification rate, test drive bookings, and handoff quality. You get weekly dashboards showing calls/SMS sent, conversion to appointments, and agent confidence scores for continuous improvement.
