Car Sales Leads from Digital Remedy Advertising

Local streaming television and digital campaigns from the platform formerly known as Compulse, now Digital Remedy.

Compulse was the local streaming and digital advertising platform built inside Sinclair, the broadcast station group, and it is now part of Digital Remedy, an independent performance advertising company. It sells connected TV, streaming audio, display and video campaigns to local advertisers by market, with targeting by geography and audience, outcome based reporting, and a managed service model in which the company plans and runs the campaign for the advertiser.

For a dealership that means a managed streaming and digital campaign bought by market, with inventory across the major services and reporting on outcomes such as website visits and foot traffic, from a company built to serve local advertisers who used to buy broadcast. It suits a franchise store that wants streaming run for it rather than operated in a console.

A store spends with Digital Remedy for managed streaming and digital campaigns with outcome reporting, bought by market, without operating a console. Its origins inside a broadcast group mean it understands the local advertiser.

The honest objection is that a managed service carries a management layer, that its reporting overlaps with what LeadLocate provides, so a store should decide who reports what, and that streaming reads through branded search over weeks. The name change from Compulse confuses stores that knew it under Sinclair.

For the broader case for this kind of channel, Connected TV Advertising for Car Dealerships covers it without repeating what is here.

Digital Remedy fits franchise stores that want managed streaming and digital campaigns by market, stores in former Sinclair markets that knew Compulse, and dealer groups. It fits less well for stores that prefer self serve and for stores that already run their digital elsewhere.

Digital Remedy works with advertisers on a partner basis rather than through an open self serve account, which usually means a conversation with their sales team, a minimum commitment and creative that meets their standards. LeadLocate handles that on request. Tell us from the Advertising Networks page in the CRM that you want Digital Remedy, our team opens the conversation for your dealership, and once the placement is set the campaign is managed from Leads Manager alongside everything else you run with us. Where you already have a relationship with Digital Remedy, we work inside it. The webXintel Ads Network, included with every plan, keeps running the whole time, so a partner placement is an addition to your lead flow rather than a replacement for it.

A Digital Remedy sourced lead reaches the CRM as a branded search, a direct inquiry on a LeadLocate lead page, or a click from a display or video placement, attributed by zone and week for the streaming and directly for the clicks, with Digital Remedy's outcome report beside the CRM's.

From that point the lead behaves like every other lead in LeadLocate. It is stamped with the channel and the campaign, it lands with the salesperson or the round robin you set in lead distribution, and the first touch can fire on its own, a text, an email or a task, before anyone opens it. Stores that keep working leads in a different CRM switch on Instant Push, and the lead is forwarded by ADF as it arrives; the price does not change for that. One thing worth saying on every channel page: the shopper decides what to submit. A person with a VIN picked out and a person with a payment in mind are both leads, and what to expect from car sales leads explains why that mix is normal.

Every channel LeadLocate runs shares one workflow. Campaigns are set up in Leads Manager from a zone, a campaign type and a set of pre screening questions. Leads arrive in one inbox, route by one set of distribution rules, and are worked with the CRM's own texting, calling, call transcription, email and voicemail drop. Reporting is one place, with activity, company and management views. Digital Remedy slots into that as a source, nothing more, and that is the reason a store can afford to try it: the cost of adding a channel is the media, not another system. The advertising channels page lists every channel the CRM can run this way.

It also means a channel can be judged fairly. When every lead carries its source and every call, text and appointment is logged against it, the management report can show cost per lead and cost per appointment by channel over a quarter, which is the only honest way to compare a search campaign with a streaming flight or a mailing. A store that keeps its channels in separate systems never gets that comparison, and usually keeps paying for the one with the loudest sales rep.

For an agency, Digital Remedy is a managed streaming partner for dealership clients that want campaigns run rather than operated, and connecting each store's LeadLocate CRM keeps the leads in the same report as the rest of the plan.

Most dealerships hand their advertising to a small local agency that already has their trust, and that agency is who usually ends up managing Digital Remedy. LeadLocate is built to sit underneath that relationship rather than compete with it. The agency keeps its accounts and its client, connects those accounts to the store's LeadLocate CRM or buys leads through the webXintel Ads Network, and manages every channel it runs for that store from one Leads Manager with one set of reports. For an agency serving several stores, that replaces a stack of platform logins per client with one system, and it gives the agency something it would otherwise have to build itself: a CRM the dealership actually works its leads in, with the follow up visible. Agencies that refer stores to LeadLocate can also enroll in the referral program inside the CRM. dealer-marketing-attribution-softwareL goes into the agency arrangement in more detail.

Geography is the first setting on every LeadLocate campaign, and it is yours. Draw the zone you sell in with the zone editor in Leads Manager, a radius, a list of counties or a state, and Digital Remedy placements are bought for that zone and nothing outside it. Brokers who sell to the whole country set the whole country; a group draws one zone per rooftop and the reporting comes back the same way, so a regional manager can see which store's market answered. Financing audiences stay inside fair lending rules on every channel: Leads Manager keeps them from being narrowed by age, gender, income, marital status, household size, education, language or ZIP, with locked controls, so a store is protected without thinking about it. Everything else, the vehicles, the message, the radius, is open.

Two steps. First, if your dealership is not on the platform, pick a plan on the pricing page; every plan is month to month with no long term contract, and every plan includes the webXintel Ads Network. Second, from Leads Manager inside the CRM, open Advertising Networks and request Digital Remedy. Our team handles the setup, usually the same day, and the campaign is planned from your zone and your selections. Spend on an account you own is billed to you by Digital Remedy; there is no markup on it from us. If the store's process lives in another CRM, Instant Push forwards each lead there by ADF.

Expect a short conversation before anything runs: which vehicles, which zone, which questions a shopper should answer, what a fair trial of Digital Remedy looks like in your market and when to review it. Then the campaign runs and the reporting does the talking. A channel that earns its place stays; one that does not is turned off from the same page, and the store keeps the leads, the records and the history either way.

Is Compulse still a company?

Compulse is now part of Digital Remedy, an independent performance advertising company; the local streaming and digital platform continues under the new name.

What does a managed service mean here?

Digital Remedy plans and runs the streaming and digital campaign for the store by market, with outcome reporting, rather than the store operating a console. Our team coordinates it with the CRM.

How is the campaign measured?

By branded search lift and direct inquiries in the zone during and after the flight, clicks from display and video placements, and Digital Remedy's outcome report, in the CRM by week.

Does my dealership need its own relationship with Digital Remedy?

Not to start. Request Digital Remedy from the Advertising Networks page in the CRM and our team opens the conversation with Digital Remedy for your store. If you or your agency already have a relationship there, tell us in the request and we work inside it.

Can Digital Remedy leads go into the CRM we already use?

Yes. Instant Push forwards every lead to your existing CRM by ADF the moment it arrives, with its source attached, and the price of the subscription is unchanged.

What does LeadLocate charge for Digital Remedy?

The platform subscription, month to month and priced on the pricing page, includes the webXintel Ads Network. A Digital Remedy placement carries whatever commitment Digital Remedy sets, billed for your dealership; we do not mark it up and we never tie our price to results.

One more channel, no new login, no new report. Ask for Digital Remedy inside the CRM or talk to a lead specialist about which channels fit your store first.
