Call Tracking

Dynamic Number Insertion

Understand exactly which campaigns are making the phone ring. We implement dynamic number insertion (DNI) to tie offline conversions back to digital spend.

What We Deliver

  • Source-level tracking
  • Call recording & QA
  • Spam filtering
  • CRM integration

How Dynamic Number Insertion Works

DNI replaces your dealership's listed phone number with a unique tracking number for each traffic source — one number for Google Ads visitors, a different one for organic search, another for direct traffic, another for your email campaigns, and so on. When a customer calls, the tracking platform records which number they dialed, giving you exact call attribution by channel.

  • Source-level tracking: separate numbers assigned to paid search, organic, social, email, and direct mail
  • Keyword-level attribution: for paid search callers, records the exact keyword that triggered the ad
  • Session-level tracking: matches the call to the specific website session, including pages viewed before calling
  • Call recording: every inbound call recorded for BDC quality assurance and training
  • Spam filtering: automated detection and filtering of robocalls and vendor solicitations from your call volume
  • CRM push: call records pushed to your CRM with source attribution so leads are properly tagged

Why This Matters for Dealer Marketing

Automotive buyers still call dealerships before they visit. If you cannot attribute those phone leads back to the campaign that generated them, you are flying blind on which marketing is actually working — and likely over-crediting digital channels that look good on click reports but generate few calls.

  • Prove which channels drive inbound phone volume, not just form submissions
  • Identify which campaigns generate call volume without vehicle purchases (wasted spend)
  • Monitor BDC call handling quality with recorded call playback
  • Provide OEM co-op documentation: call volume is a required metric for many co-op programs
  • Feed phone conversion data into Google Ads for smarter bidding optimization
  • Catch and eliminate spam call inflation that makes vendor reports look better than reality
