Connect Your Dealership Inventory to SearchMyRide
Your vehicles may already be online. SearchMyRide can help connect that inventory instead of asking your team to rebuild every listing manually, then route buyer opportunities into the SearchMyRide Dealer CRM.
Start with the stock you already maintain
Send SearchMyRide your dealership website, AutoTrader profile or inventory source and we can assess the simplest supported way to connect it.
Use the Dealer CRM for SearchMyRide opportunities
Track lead stages, sales follow-up, salesperson activity, management visibility, closed-won and closed-lost outcomes and conversion reporting.
Use the commercial model that fits
Dealerships can begin with the 60-day introductory free trial, while eligible dealers may use Pay Per Successful Lead subject to the applicable PPL terms.
