“We listen to our dealer members in order to find out what products and services they are looking for,” explained Pete Petersen, CEO of Dealer United. “One of the most requested services is highly qualified third-party leads for both new and used cars. Following an extensive look into third-party lead providers, we’re excited to announce that we have selected SmartLeads.”

SmartLeads uses comprehensive data mining combined with statistical predictive modeling to determine whether or not each lead has been submitted from a shopper with genuine intent to purchase. It also features user-friendly metric reports clearly identify where each and every lead originates, so dealers and consultants understand where the lead originated.
