F&I Pursuit Pricing Packages

F&I Pursuit

After the sale F&I retailing.

F&I sales are a significant driver of dealership profitability. But not all vehicle buyers are comfortable purchasing vehicle protection products at the dealership. What if there was a way to offer your customers the ability to buy supplemental protection products after the sale – from the comfort of their own home. With F&I Pursuit, there is. Fully automated outreach, turnkey transaction processing and no staff effort required. It’s the easy way to generate incremental F&I sales for your dealership.

VINtelligent AI

A better way to bring shoppers back to your dealership.

Investing in digital advertising is no longer a nice-to-have. It’s a necessity. But traditional banners and display ads are notoriously inefficient at driving high-quality traffic to your website. The solution? Impel’s VINtelligent AI engine. Our automated technology helps you generate greater ROI from your existing marketing spend by engaging the highest-value shoppers with hyper-personalized digital experiences. Stand out from the crowd and drive your performance marketing to new heights.

Why Dealers Choose Impel

“Service AI helps relieve the pressure in the service department when it comes to phone calls, following up on appointments, and reaching out to customers to bring them back in. We are seeing a lot of customers clicking the buttons and making appointments through the conversational AI instead of calling in – and that has boosted our service revenue. In turn, that gives our service advisors more time to focus on customers in front of them. Overall, we are highly satisfied with Service AI.”

“We have been very pleased with Impel and love the AI product in particular. With our unique dealer profiles in place, I am able to manage the best response times we’ve ever seen and customers’ questions are being answered in a very professional manner. Our salespeople are able to source the leads much more effectively and the after-hours contact frees up my staff in evenings on their personal time. All the while the AI is setting appointments and answering questions. Next level tech to be sure!”

“Super easy to set up and use. After a few questions the AI is able to answer customers questions or direct sales to reach out. Customers often come in asking for the AI it does such a good job!”

“Putting Hannah (Sales AI) in our dealership was by far the best technological decision I’ve ever made in 4.5 years, and that includes changing a CRM. Ever since implementing her, we had 2 or 3 tweaks on the communication style that we needed to change a little bit, but other than that, she just – out of the box – performs. And it blows Conversica out of the water.”
