Advertising on Postalytics for Car Sales Leads

Letters and postcards mailed from a list with personal URLs and response tracking built in, for households in your zone.

Postalytics is a direct mail automation service that prints and mails letters and postcards from a list, either as a one time campaign or as a triggered drip that sends a piece when a record is added, with a personal URL and a tracked code on each piece so responses are measured per recipient, delivery tracking through the postal system, and a design editor for the pieces. It charges per piece with plans for frequent senders.

For a dealership that means a mailing to a list the CRM already holds, sent once or as a drip that follows a trigger such as a lease approaching maturity or an unsold lead going quiet, with each piece measured by who responded, and a delivery date for each. Our team sets the connection up on request and each piece points back to a LeadLocate lead page through its personal URL or a tracked number.

A store spends on Postalytics to mail lists it owns with response measured per recipient, and to run drips that mail a piece when a record reaches a trigger, so the equity letter or the follow up goes out on time without anyone remembering to send it. Measurement and automation are its strengths.

The honest objection is the mail objection, response arriving over weeks at a low rate, and the fact that per piece pricing is not the cheapest price for a very large run. The list and the trigger matter more than the printer.

For the broader case for this kind of channel, Automotive Direct Mail Marketing covers it without repeating what is here.

Postalytics fits any dealership mailing its own lists with per recipient measurement, stores that want mail drips tied to triggers such as lease maturity or unsold leads, and dealer groups mailing across rooftops. It fits less well for a single very large saturation run.

Think of Postalytics as the printing and postage behind a list you already own. The list is built in the CRM, from equity mining, lease maturity, declined service, unsold showroom traffic or a geographic zone, and Postalytics prints, addresses and mails it. Our team sets that up on request from the Advertising Networks page. Every piece points back to something the CRM can measure, a tracked number or a personal URL on a LeadLocate lead page, so a household that responds becomes a lead with its source attached, not an anonymous walk in. Digital channels through the webXintel Ads Network keep running while the mail is in transit, so the store never depends on a single slow medium.

A Postalytics mailing produces leads as visits to the personal URL on the piece that resolve to a LeadLocate lead page, calls to the tracked number, and walk ins carrying the piece, each recorded in the CRM with the mailing, the recipient and the piece's delivery date beside it.

Once it is in the CRM the channel stops mattering and the process takes over. The lead shows its source and campaign, the pre screening answers you asked for in Leads Manager, and it routes by the distribution rules you set, to a person or a rotation. Automated first contact, by text, email or a scheduled call, is optional and configurable. If the store's process lives in another CRM, Instant Push forwards each lead there by ADF on arrival, and the subscription price is the same either way. Expect a mix: shoppers who name a vehicle and shoppers who name a budget, both of them worth a call, as what to expect from car sales leads sets out.

A dealership that runs six channels through six vendors gets six reports, six invoices and six opinions about where the leads came from. Running Postalytics through LeadLocate means it is planned in Leads Manager beside the others, its leads arrive in the same inbox with the same distribution rules, its follow up runs through the same texting, calling and email tools, and its results show up in the same reporting modules. Add a channel and the work does not grow; the picture does. The full set of channels a store can ask for is on the advertising channels page, and it matches the list inside the CRM.

The tools behind that inbox are the ones a store already uses on its other leads: automated first contact by text or email, calls placed from the CRM with the recording transcribed onto the record, voicemail drop for the ones who do not answer, drip processes for the ones who are months away, appointments on the shared calendar, and desking when the shopper arrives. A lead from Postalytics gets all of it, because the CRM does not care where a lead came from once it is in.

For an agency running direct mail for dealership clients, Postalytics is the mailer that measures response per recipient and runs drips from triggers, and connecting the store's LeadLocate CRM shows which mailing and which recipient produced each call, visit and walk in.

Agencies are how most stores buy Postalytics, and LeadLocate treats the agency as part of the store's team. An agency user can manage the campaigns in Leads Manager, hold the platform accounts in its own name and connect them, pull the same reporting the dealership sees, and use the webXintel Ads Network as a lead source for clients that want results before they want a media plan. What the agency gains is the piece it typically lacks: the CRM, the distribution rules, the texting and calling, the follow up processes, all of it visible so the agency can show the store what happened after the click. Agencies that bring dealerships onto the platform can enroll in the referral program. See dealership-campaign-management-softwareL for how the agency side works.

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 Postalytics 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.

The setup cost of Postalytics, in your time, is a click. The Advertising Networks page in the CRM lists it beside every other channel; Request Connection opens a support request our team works, usually the same day. Stores that are new to LeadLocate choose a plan on the pricing page, month to month with no long term contract, and start with the webXintel Ads Network the same week. Media bought through a Postalytics account in your name is billed by Postalytics directly to you. Your existing CRM, if you have one, keeps receiving leads through Instant Push by ADF, and the price does not change for that.

From there it is a conversation, not a contract. Our team confirms the zone and the selections, says plainly what Postalytics is likely to do for a store of your size, and agrees a review date. If the reporting shows Postalytics earning its budget, it stays; if it does not, it is switched off from the same page, the store keeps every lead and record it produced, and the budget moves to a channel that did better in the same report.

What is a mail drip?

A piece mailed automatically when a record reaches a trigger, such as a lease approaching maturity or an unsold lead going quiet, so follow up goes out on time without anyone remembering to send it.

How does the personal URL work?

Each piece carries a short web address unique to the recipient that resolves to a LeadLocate lead page, so a visit identifies who responded and becomes a lead with the mailing attached.

How is the mailing measured?

By visits to the personal URL, calls to the tracked number and walk ins carrying the piece, each logged in the CRM against the mailing and the recipient with the delivery date.

Do I need my own Postalytics account to mail through LeadLocate?

No. Request Postalytics from the Advertising Networks page in the CRM and our team sets the connection up. Stores that already have a Postalytics account can keep it and connect it.

Can responses from the mailing go into the CRM we already use?

Yes. Each piece points to a tracked number or a personal URL on a LeadLocate lead page, the response becomes a lead in the CRM, and Instant Push forwards it to your existing CRM by ADF at no change in price.

What does LeadLocate charge for Postalytics?

The platform is a month to month subscription with no long term contract, priced on the pricing page, and every plan includes the webXintel Ads Network. Printing and postage are billed for the pieces you send; we do not tie the price to responses.

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