THE MECHANICS
Three signals. One perfect email.
DealRecover listens to what a buyer does — not just what they say.
Send Time Intelligence
We track the exact hour a buyer first clicked the listing and calibrate send time to that window — not a generic "Tuesday at 10am" blast.
↑ 2.3× higher open rate vs scheduled sends
Vehicle-Matched Copy
Subject lines reference the specific trim, color, and feature the buyer lingered on. Body copy mirrors the actual pitch the salesperson made on the lot.
↑ 71% open rate on vehicle-matched subjects
Buyer Stage Routing
A first-time tire-kicker gets a different sequence than a third-visit negotiator. DealRecover reads visit history and routes to the right cadence automatically.
↑ 34% higher reply rate vs stage-agnostic sends

FROM THE FLOOR
Dealers who stopped leaving money on the lot.
"We were running 28 units a month with a 70% walk rate. DealRecover pulled back 4 deals in the first 30 days. That's $11,200 in gross I would've left on the table."
Marcus Webb
Owner, Webb Auto Group — Dallas, TX
"Our orphan lead pile was embarrassing. Same template going to everyone. DealRecover's vehicle-specific subjects got us from 9% to 63% open rates in six weeks."
Danielle Okafor
BDC Director, Premier Ford — Columbus, OH
