Fixed Ops Marketing & Retention

Your service department is leaking revenue you already paid to earn.

Declined repairs, lapsing customers and open recalls are sitting in your DMS right now. Dealerwing validates that data, acts on it across every channel, and shows you the repair orders it produced.

Meet Dealerwing at NADA 2027

Dealerwing will be at NADA 2027 in Orlando at Booth 2957.

Stop by to see how Dealerwing helps franchised auto dealers clean, validate, analyze, and activate customer data to drive smarter fixed ops marketing, stronger service retention, AI-driven targeting, recall outreach, declined service recovery, and more measurable campaign performance.

If your dealership is investing in AI, service marketing, customer retention, or database-driven campaigns, the first question is simple: Is your data clean enough to trust?

Dealerwing helps dealers answer that question and turn hidden opportunities inside the database into real marketing opportunities.

While you are there, be sure to pick up your pass to the Dealerwing NADA Party, expected to be one of the biggest events during the show.

The leak

Three places fixed ops revenue disappears

None of these are marketing problems first. They are data and follow-up problems that marketing then amplifies — in the wrong direction.

Recommended repairs walk out the door

Declined-service lines sit in your DMS with the customer already told the vehicle needs the work. Almost no store follows up systematically.

Service customers still with you by year three

Retention leaks quietly after the free-maintenance period ends. By the time it shows in the numbers, the customer is servicing elsewhere.

How Dealerwing fixes it

CruiseCTRL AI, pointed at data that is actually right

AI does not fix a broken customer database — it repeats its mistakes faster. We validate first, then let CruiseCTRL AI decide who to reach, when, and with what.

1

Validate the data

DMS, OEM and third-party records resolved into one accurate customer and vehicle picture, with reachability scored.

2

Execute omnichannel

CruiseCTRL AI builds and times each audience, then runs mail, email, SMS, voice and digital as one cadence.

3

Prove it in ROs

Every response is matched back to closed repair orders with control-group reporting you can hand to your controller.
