The Challenge

World Kia had an average of 700 unsold showroom visitors per month.

  • Before Lokam, the follow-up was occurring with customers that we knew were highly likely to return anyway.
  • As they had a mix of English and Spanish-speaking customers, the lack of a full-time or 2 full time qualified managers to make the calls was the friction.
  • The General Sales Manager, Camille, estimated they were allowing 20 deals a month to buy elsewhere.

The Solution

World Kia deployed Lokam's Voice AI follow-up platform for calling unsold visitors, integrated directly with their CRM.

  • Empathetic AI calls every customer within 24 hours of a showroom visit.
  • Have an honest conversation and identify the primary objections holding them back.
  • Filters high-intent prospects and alerts them to the sales team for recovery.
  • Instead of battling with shoppers, your sales team filters high-intent leads and closes deals.

"Prior to having Lokam, follow-up on unsold traffic was not being executed at the rate it should have been. The alerts pushed us toward working on it as it should have. So we are now selling 18 more cars a month."
