Built for eLead CRM Dealers

AI Lead Follow-Up That Runs Alongside eLead

eLead is a strong system of record — but its automated follow-up sends the same reminder to every lead and quits after a few tries. DealFlo forwards your eLead leads in by ADF, adapts the opener to the source, and keeps working every lead for up to three years.

Keep eLead. Add the AI BDC layer it never had.

DealFlo accepts ADF leads forwarded from eLead and routes each one to a source-aware campaign — KBB, CarGurus, AutoTrader, dealer website, lease-end, service RO. Riley runs the text conversation, escalates warm leads to your team with the full thread, and you keep eLead as your CRM, appointment book, and reporting hub.

What changes for your eLead store in week one

ADF forwarding in 5 minutes

Point your eLead ADF lead feed at your DealFlo address. Every new lead lands in DealFlo within 30 seconds and gets a source-aware first text — before it goes stale in the eLead work queue.

Source detection on every lead

Riley reads the provider field in the ADF and adapts. A KBB shopper gets the trade-value angle, a CarGurus lead gets inventory positioning, a dealer-website lead gets vehicle-of-interest follow-up. No more one-size-fits-all templates.

Follow-up that outlasts the eLead cadence

eLead's default process taps out after a handful of touches. Riley layers 13 touchpoints across three years and rotates buyback, equity, lease-end, and dead-lead angles so old leads keep re-converting.

Warm handoff to your eLead user

When a lead is appointment-ready, Riley alerts the assigned salesperson with the full conversation and a clear next step — so your team logs the appointment in eLead in seconds and walks into a warm setup.

After-hours and weekend coverage

Most eLead auto-responses fire once and stop. Riley answers inbound texts at 9pm on a Sunday with a real, on-brand reply and books the appointment while your BDC is off the clock.

Smart escalation, not alert noise

Price, financing, availability, and callback requests are handled naturally and bridged to an appointment. Your team only gets pinged when a customer genuinely asks for a real person.

Still looking but the price seemed high
RILEY
Fair — trucks have been all over the place. What number were you hoping to be around? If it's realistic I'd rather get you in front of the actual truck than trade texts about it.

Doable to at least have the conversation. Come drive it and we'll work the numbers in person — you free Thursday evening or is Saturday better?

Common questions about eLead

How does DealFlo connect to eLead?

Through ADF email forwarding. Set your eLead lead feed to forward to your DealFlo address — takes about 5 minutes. Every lead lands in DealFlo within 30 seconds with the source field intact. No API project, no IT ticket.

Will Riley write activity back into eLead?

Two-way write-back is on our CRM roadmap. Today, every conversation thread is exportable and warm-handoff alerts include the appointment time and customer details, so your eLead user can log the activity in seconds.

Does DealFlo replace my BDC?

No — Riley is the layer above it. It handles the 200+ touches it takes to keep a lead warm so your BDC works warm conversations instead of chasing cold ones. Most stores redeploy a rep or two to confirmations and showroom setups.

We already pay for eLead's engagement tools. Why add this?

eLead's tools are template reminders. Riley is a real conversation — it reads the full history, adapts to the source, answers objections, and never repeats itself. It's the difference between a scheduled ping and a salesperson who never sleeps.

How fast do we see results?

Most eLead dealers book their first appointment from a previously-dead lead inside 7 days. The compounding effect shows up around month two, when older lead pools start re-converting at rates you'd stopped expecting.

What does it cost?

$1,795/month for the dealership plan — unlimited leads and conversations across every campaign type. No setup fees, no contracts, 14-day free trial.
