The ALocal dealer platform and tools

What tools does an ALocal dealer get?

Every ALocal dealer gets a local brand and domain, plus an eCommerce website with financing, quoting and checkout. Behind it sits a CRM, with SMS, call routing, an inbox, forms and automations. Lead channels such as Google, Meta and Yelp feed into that CRM, and ALocal maintains the platform for every brand.

Why does an HVAC dealer need an eCommerce website?

Homeowners shopping for a new system want clear options before anyone visits. Each dealer website shows systems with pricing and financing, and gives homeowners a way to request a quote or buy online. That means the homeowner arrives at the consultation already informed, and the conversation can focus on what fits their home.

How does the CRM keep follow-up from slipping?

Every lead lands in one place. Texts, calls and form fills come through the CRM, and the call routing, inbox and automations keep the next step visible. The CRM provides tools to keep customer conversations organized.

Who keeps the platform running?

ALocal does. The website, quoting tools, customer management and phone system are maintained for every brand, and the platform keeps getting system updates after launch. You spend your time with homeowners, not fixing plugins or chasing software bills. Setup happens during onboarding, alongside your training.

Can I see a dealer website?

Yes. Every live ALocal dealer runs on the same platform under its own local name:

Dealer platform questions

Do I have to build or manage my own website?

No. Your website is set up during onboarding and maintained by ALocal, along with your quoting tools, customer management and phone system. You get a local brand and domain of your own, and ALocal keeps the platform behind it running and updated for every brand in the network.

Which CRM does ALocal use?

ALocal provides a CRM and phone tools for dealer follow-up. Dealers use it for SMS, call routing, an inbox, forms and automations, and lead channels like Google, Meta and Yelp feed into it. Keeping everything in one system means every lead and every follow-up sits in one place instead of scattered across apps.

Where can I learn about the business side of the platform?

Business details are covered on an intro call with the ALocal team. That conversation is the right place for specifics about your market and your role. Bring your questions about the platform too, and we'll walk through the tools with you.
