Advertising Platform Integrations

One CRM that also runs the advertising, so a dealership stops choosing between software that manages the lead and a company that buys the media.

It means the platform is catalogued, the work to connect it is understood, and a request from your store is what starts it. Every platform on this page is run the same way: planned in Leads Manager, managed by our team, reported in the CRM.

Some platforms are already live and verified, and their own pages say so. The rest are one request away, and the platform's page explains what it does for a dealership, how our team sets it up and what a lead from it looks like when it arrives.

Separately, each platform carries an access class. That one describes the vendor's gate rather than ours, and it is the honest predictor of how long a connection takes once it starts.

• PUBLIC Anyone can register for developer credentials without vendor approval.
• PARTNER Credentials require an application the vendor reviews.
• CERTIFIED A contract, certification or minimum spend is required before API access.

The highest-intent demand in automotive, where a shopper has already typed what they want.

Where a shopper is reached before they search, and where native lead forms produce the cheapest opt-in in the industry.

The newest surface, and the one a car shopper uses for the long comparison conversation.

How a store reaches shoppers on the sites and apps that have no ad product of their own.

Bringing back the people who already looked at a vehicle on your website.

High volumes of low-cost clicks to a vehicle detail page or an event page.

Television reach bought like digital. Sell it as reach and conquest, never as same-day leads.

Reaches people while they are literally driving, and the most under-used channel in dealer advertising relative to its cost.

Billboards near your lot, near a competitor lot, and along the commute, bought by the play instead of by the year.

The tactics dealers ask for by name: fencing a competitor lot, and reaching specific households.

Smaller audiences with unusually low competition from other dealerships.

Placements inside the newsletters people actually open, with no cookie dependency.

Attention during idle time, at costs well below social.

Not media buys. The tooling that generates and serves the ads themselves.

Turning a dealership list into reach. Read the limits on these carefully.

LeadLocate does not talk to advertising networks one script at a time. There is a single library inside the CRM that defines what any network must be able to do: hand us an authorization URL, exchange the code for a token, list the accounts and pages you own, deploy a campaign, pause or resume it, return spend and results, and prove on demand that the connection still works. Seven operations. Every network answers the same seven, which is why adding one is an adapter file and a block of credentials rather than a project, and why turning one on does not disturb the ones already running.

Access tokens are encrypted before storage using AES-256-GCM. Every connect, deploy, pause, report and verify is written to an append-only audit log. When campaign objects are created the system records which credentials created them and re-resolves those same credentials later, so disconnecting an account next month does not strand the campaigns built for you.

Every network on this page runs through that same gateway, so turning one on for your store is our team's work against a known contract rather than a project with an unknown end. Ask for a platform, and it is set up for your dealership.

There are two ways to advertise through LeadLocate and you pick. The first is the webXintel Ads Network: included, always on, built and run by our team from the selections you make in Leads Manager, and it arrives as one line rather than a stack of platform invoices. The second is your own accounts. Connect the ones you already own and campaigns route through them instead, on your billing, in your name, with your spend history intact. Disconnect whenever you like and delivery falls back to the managed path automatically.

Most vendors will not offer the second option, because it costs them the markup on your media.

One limit stated plainly: pushing, pausing and reading numbers from a network is done by our team today, not from your dashboard. That is a deliberate constraint while the connection layer is young, and it is on the list to open up.

Advertising is one half of the question. If what you are really asking is how LeadLocate connects to the systems that already run your store, start with CRM API integrations, CRM and DMS integration, ADF and XML lead delivery, or inventory feed integration. For the channel itself rather than the connection, see car dealership advertising and programmatic display.

Tell us which one. Our team sets it up for your dealership, usually the same day, under your own account or through the included webXintel Ads Network, with every lead landing in one CRM.
