MNTN Integration for Dealerships

MNTN for dealerships and the agencies that run them, available on request with one report and one point of contact.

LeadLocate sets this platform up for your dealership on request, so all you have to do is ask. That covers streaming television advertising under your own MNTN account or through the included webXintel Ads Network, with campaigns planned in Leads Manager, managed by our team and reported in the CRM beside every other channel. The directory lists every network available the same way.

What MNTN actually is, in dealership terms

MNTN sells connected television as a direct response channel. Same screens, same streaming apps, same living rooms as any other television buy, presented and measured as though it were a digital campaign: self serve setup, automated optimization on the platform's side, and reporting built around actions rather than gross rating points.

The pitch to an advertiser is that television no longer has to be the one line on the marketing budget that nobody can defend. Instead of a reach estimate and a hope, the platform reports what happened after the impression and adjusts delivery towards whatever is performing.

For a dealership the appeal is obvious. Most stores have a general manager who will approve anything with a defensible number attached and nothing without one. This category is the same media described on our connected TV advertising page, sold in the vocabulary a dealership already uses for search.

Why a dealership would spend money here

The case is that television becomes arguable. A store can run a streaming campaign, see a report that speaks in visits and actions, and hold the channel to a standard rather than accepting it as brand spend that pays off invisibly. Automated optimization also removes a real operational cost, since most dealerships have nobody whose job is tuning a media buy daily.

The honest objection is that performance connected television rests on a view through window, and a view through window is a policy decision rather than a fact. If somebody sees a spot on Tuesday, visits your website on Friday after a search, and the platform claims the visit inside a multi day window, the report will look excellent and the search campaign will look worse than it is. Nothing dishonest has occurred. Two systems have both counted the same person and only one of them prompted the visit.

The second objection is that the optimization is a black box on the vendor's side. You do not see what it decided or why, which is fine when performance is good and unanswerable when it is not. A dealership should therefore run this the way it would run any channel it cannot inspect: with a fixed budget, a defined test window, and an agreement in advance about which numbers count. That discipline matters more here than on channels where the mechanics are visible, and it applies equally to programmatic display.

How LeadLocate puts MNTN to work for your dealership

Any dealership on LeadLocate can run MNTN. The request is a line in the Advertising Networks page of the CRM or a sentence to your account manager, and from there our team handles the platform side: the account or the placement, the credentials, the geography, the campaign structure and the reporting back into the CRM. If MNTN requires an application or a contract on its side, we file it in your dealership's name and keep you posted, so the only thing the store has to decide is what it wants to say and where.

You keep the choice of whose login the campaigns live under. Under the webXintel Ads Network, included with every plan, they live under ours, built from the zone, campaign type and pre screening questions you set in Leads Manager. Under your own MNTN account they live under yours, on your billing, with the account history staying with the store. Agencies that already hold a MNTN account for the dealership keep it and we work inside it. Moving between the two is a request, not a project.

What moves between MNTN and the CRM

Think of the connection as two lanes. Outbound carries what you decided in Leads Manager, the zone, the budget, the dates, the objective and the approved creative, to MNTN. Inbound carries the numbers back, spend, impressions, clicks and reported results, into the same reporting every other channel uses, so MNTN is one line in a report rather than another dashboard to log into.

Leads arrive either through a form inside MNTN where the platform offers one, posted to the CRM as it is submitted, or through a click to a LeadLocate lead page in your dealership's name, with the pre screening questions you chose, so every inquiry is a lead in the CRM with the campaign attached. Each lead arrives with its source and campaign attached, the CRM's texting, calling and email pick it up, and Instant Push sends it by ADF to any CRM your store already runs, at no change in price. The mix of leads to expect is described on what to expect from car sales leads.

On our side the access token is encrypted before it is stored, every push, pause, report and verify against MNTN is logged with the company, the user and the detail, and campaign objects record which credentials created them. Your customer file and your inventory do not leave the CRM unless you ask us to use them on MNTN, and when you do, our team builds that audience or that inventory creative for your store.

The ad gateway underneath every network

Every advertising platform LeadLocate runs answers the same seven questions: where to send a user to authorize, how to turn the code into a token, which accounts the token can see, how to deploy a campaign, how to pause and resume it, how to read spend and results, and how to prove the connection is still alive. MNTN answers them the way every other network does, through an adapter our team maintains, so adding it to your store is scoped work rather than an open ended project.

What sits under that contract is shared and finished: encrypted token storage, an append only audit log carrying the company, the network, the user and the detail, and campaign objects that remember which credentials created them. That is why a store can turn MNTN on beside search, social and streaming television and get one report, and why an agency can run several dealerships through the same gateway without one store ever seeing another's data.

Access on MNTN's side, handled for you

MNTN issues advertising credentials after an application it reviews, so there is an onboarding step on the vendor's side before campaigns run. Our team files that application in your dealership's name, follows it through and connects the account the day it clears. Where the store or its agency already holds approved access, we work inside it and skip the wait.

Whatever the gate, the store's part is the same: say which platform you want, whether you already hold an account there, and what you would run first. Our team takes it from that point and reports back with a start date rather than a list of steps for you to complete.

Managed by us, or under your own MNTN account

There are two ways to advertise through LeadLocate and you pick between them. The first is the webXintel Ads Network, included with every plan: our team builds and runs the campaigns from the selections you make in Leads Manager, and it arrives as one line rather than a stack of platform invoices. It is running from the day your account is activated and it keeps running while MNTN is being set up.

The second is your own MNTN account. Connect the account your store already holds, or let our team open one in your dealership's name, and campaigns route through it, on your billing, in your name, with your spend history intact. A store that already runs MNTN through an agency uses this path so the account and its history stay where they are. Disconnect whenever you like and delivery falls back to the managed path without anything else changing.

Pushing, pausing and reading MNTN is done by our team on your behalf, so a change is a message rather than a login, and if you want controls opened in your own dashboard, ask and we set that up for your store.

Getting started, budget and what to measure

MNTN sets its own commercial terms and our team confirms the practical minimum for your market before anything is booked, so the budget is a number you agreed to rather than a surprise on an invoice. On timing, judge MNTN over a full flight rather than a weekend: a shopper reached today searches your store by name days later, and the CRM shows that lift beside the direct leads. Our team sets a review date with you at the start, so the first read of MNTN happens at the right distance rather than after a nervous weekend.

The first campaign is deliberately simple: one zone, one objective, one offer, with the pre screening questions that keep a lead worth a phone call. Once it has a read, the store widens by format, by radius or by budget, and each step is a message to our team rather than a rebuild. Everything reports into the same CRM view as the rest of your advertising, so MNTN is judged beside search, social and the webXintel Ads Network rather than on its own dashboard.

Anything MNTN supports, built on request

Whatever MNTN can do, LeadLocate can do for your store. Feeding sales results back to MNTN so it learns, building an audience from your sold or service customers, running your live inventory as creative, exporting reports the way your group wants them, or wiring a step that exists nowhere else: ask, and our team builds it into the CRM for your dealership. We built the platform ourselves, so a request is work for our own team rather than a support ticket that waits on a vendor.

The same goes for combinations. If your store wants MNTN beside Netflix, Meta and a billboard company in one place, with the leads in one inbox and one person to call, that is what we set up. Users are limited only by their creativity, and our team is the part that turns the idea into a running campaign. Every channel we run is listed on advertising channels for car dealerships.

If you want MNTN on your store

The whole process is a request. Open the Advertising Networks page in the CRM, ask for MNTN, and tell us two things: whether the store or its agency already has a MNTN account, and what you want to run first. Our team does the rest and comes back with a start date. Dealerships that are not yet customers pick a plan on the pricing page, month to month, and start with the included webXintel Ads Network the same week while MNTN is arranged.

The subscription price is the same whichever networks you run. Media under your own MNTN account is billed by MNTN directly to your dealership, with no markup from us.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does LeadLocate integrate with MNTN?

Yes, on request. Ask for MNTN from the Advertising Networks page in the CRM and our team puts it in production for your dealership, under your own account or through the included webXintel Ads Network. LeadLocate sets this platform up for your dealership on request, so all you have to do is ask.

Can I use my own MNTN account?

Yes. Connect the account your store already holds, or let our team open one in your dealership's name, and campaigns run under it on your billing with the history staying with the store. Agencies that manage MNTN for you keep their seat and we work inside it.

How long does it take to set up MNTN?

Usually the same day for platforms with public credentials. Where MNTN reviews applications or requires a contract on its side, our team files it in your name and campaigns start as soon as MNTN completes its onboarding. The managed network runs the whole time.

What does LeadLocate charge for MNTN?

The platform is a monthly subscription, month to month with no long term contract, priced on the pricing page, and every plan includes the webXintel Ads Network. Media you buy under your own MNTN account is billed by MNTN to you and never marked up by us.

Can MNTN leads go into the CRM we already use?

Yes. Turn on Instant Push and every lead is forwarded to your existing CRM by ADF the moment it arrives, with its source and campaign attached. The subscription price is the same whether you work leads in LeadLocate or forward them.

Can you run MNTN together with my other advertising?

Yes. MNTN sits beside search, social, streaming television, outdoor and mail in the same CRM, with one report and one point of contact. Any combination a store can name, our team sets up.

Ask for it. Conversion feedback, audiences from your customer file, inventory driven creative, custom reporting or a workflow unique to your store: our team scopes it and builds it into the CRM for your dealership.

Can I use my own MNTN account?

Yes. Connect the account your store already holds, or let our team open one in your dealership's name, and campaigns run under it on your billing with the history staying with the store. Agencies that manage MNTN for you keep their seat and we work inside it.
