The boat dealer's daily battle
Sound familiar?
📋 85 business cards from the boat show — still not entered anywhere...
⛵ Couple came in Saturday for a sea trial — never confirmed the appointment...
💰 Financing application from March still marked "pending"...
❄️ 200 past buyers need winterization reminders — sent 30 manually...
🌊 New model arrived — no system to alert interested buyers from last season...
🌙 Boat show debrief and lead entry taking all of Monday morning...
One missed boat show lead can be a $60,000+ sale lost to a competitor.
How Dewx works for boat dealers
One platform for lead management, sea trial scheduling, financing, and seasonal campaigns.
1. Capture Every Lead
Boat show leads, website inquiries, calls, and walk-ins all land in one inbox. Dew AI qualifies buyers and books sea trials automatically.
- Boat show lead capture
- Auto spec sheet replies
- Buyer budget qualification
2. Schedule & Nurture
Visual sales pipeline with sea trial scheduling, financing stage tracking, and automatic follow-ups through every step of the buyer journey.
3. Retain & Upsell
Trigger seasonal service reminders, new model alerts for past buyers, and winterization campaigns automatically each year.
Dewx in October:
"Winter is coming. 147 customers are due for winterization. Want me to send service reminders? Also, 23 leads from last spring's boat show haven't been contacted — should I reach out about early spring inventory?"

Boat Dealer FAQ
How does Dewx help boat dealers follow up after boat shows?
Dewx captures all boat show leads into one inbox — whether collected via paper, tablet, or business card scan. Dew AI automatically sends personalized follow-up messages within hours of the show, while interest is hot. You can track which prospects have been contacted, which are interested in a sea trial, and which need financing information — all from one view.
Can Dewx handle the seasonal nature of boat sales?
Yes. Dewx lets you set up seasonal campaigns that activate at the right time. Spring brings new inventory alerts to your past buyer list. Fall triggers winterization service reminders. Off-season prospects get notified when spring models arrive. This fills your pipeline before the season opens and keeps service revenue flowing year-round.
How does Dewx track sea trial scheduling and financing conversations?
Create a visual pipeline that tracks every buyer from initial inquiry through sea trial, financing application, and deal close. When a sea trial is scheduled, Dewx auto-confirms with the customer and reminds them the day before. Financing stages are tracked so your team always knows where each deal stands and what the next step is.
Can Dewx manage trade-in boat appraisals and consignments?
Absolutely. Log trade-in details, condition assessments, and appraisal values for every incoming vessel. Dewx tracks the status of each trade-in through your process and can notify potential buyers when a used vessel they've been waiting for becomes available. Consignment listings get automated inquiry responses and showing scheduling.
Is Dewx affordable for smaller independent boat dealers?
Dewx is built to be accessible for independent marine dealers who can't afford $1,000+/month dealer management systems. Starting at $49/month, you get the same lead management, automation, and communication tools that large dealership groups use — without long-term contracts or per-seat pricing that scales out of control.
