What LeadEyePro does
- Posts for you. Pick a unit on your website and LeadEyePro fills in the whole Facebook Marketplace listing: title, price, photos, description and details.
- Writes the description. It uses the unit's details from your website and lets you change any word before it posts.
- Keeps prices right. When a price changes on your website, it updates the Facebook listing.
- Takes down sold units. When a unit leaves your inventory, it marks the Facebook listing as sold.
Before you start
- Google Chrome on a computer (Windows or Mac).
- LeadEyePro added to Chrome. Your manager or LeadEyePro contact sets this up. You will see LeadEyePro under the puzzle piece at the top right of Chrome.
- Your own Facebook account, signed in at facebook.com. Stay signed in.
- Your LeadEyePro username and password from your manager.
Sign in
- Open your dealership's website.
- Click the LeadEyePro button at the bottom right of the page.
- Type your username and password, then click Sign in. The button shows your name when you are in.
Post one listing
- Find the unit: in the LeadEyePro menu's list of units that are ready to post, or with the unit's own LeadEyePro button on your website.
- Click Post. The Post to Facebook window opens.
- Photos: Smart pick chooses the best ones, or choose them yourself. The numbers show the order buyers see.
- Description: pick a style and LeadEyePro writes it. Read it and change any words you like. What you see is exactly what posts.
- Price: it comes from your website. Set a custom price only when your manager says so.
- Click Post to Facebook. Facebook opens in a new tab and LeadEyePro fills in the listing.
Post several: the queue
- Add units to the queue: tick them in the LeadEyePro menu and click Add to queue, or use the add (+) button on each unit if your website shows one.
- Each row can have its own description, photos and price.
- Click Start. LeadEyePro posts one unit at a time, 10 to 15 minutes apart, like a person would. Units already on Facebook are left out.
Photos, including your own
- Smart pick chooses the best photos from your website (up to 20), in a good order.
- Choose them yourself: click a photo to take it out or put it back.
- Your own photos: scan the QR code with your phone and upload pictures or a short video from the lot. They are added to that unit's listing.
- Floorplan and build sheet: when your website has them, Post settings can add them to the photos.
Your Post settings
They apply to every listing you post. Open them from the LeadEyePro menu.
- Description style: how LeadEyePro writes each description, or your own way with your own instructions. Preview it on a real unit.
- Footer: your name and phone number at the end of every description.
- Stock number and VIN: switch on the lines you want after the description.
- Photos: Smart pick on its own, plus floorplan and build sheet photos when you have them.
- AI picks the best groups: LeadEyePro chooses the Facebook groups that fit each listing.
Inventory Manager (once a day)
The daily check. It compares your website with your Facebook listings, then shows only what needs you. Run it at the start of your shift.
- On your website, open the LeadEyePro menu and click Inventory Manager. Then click Run.
- Leave the computer alone for a few minutes while it reads your website and your Facebook listings.
- Work the tabs from left to right. When the top line says Nothing to fix, click Close.
| Tab | What it means | What you click |
|---|---|---|
| Price updates | Facebook shows a different price than your website. | Update price, or Update all on the orange bar |
| Mark as sold | Gone from your inventory (or listed twice) but still up on Facebook. | Mark as sold, or Mark as sold all on the red bar. Ignore leaves it alone. |
| Pick the unit | A Facebook listing not tied to a unit yet, usually one posted before LeadEyePro. | Search the stock number and pick the unit. None Match if it is gone. |
| Posted | On Facebook at your website's price. | Nothing to do. Unmatch fixes a wrong pair. |
Your first run: listings already on Facebook
- No need to delete old listings. LeadEyePro finds the listings you posted before and ties each one to its unit.
- The ones it cannot be sure about wait under Pick the unit. Pick the right unit once and the listing moves to Posted for good.
- After the old listings are done, Pick the unit stays empty. The daily work is Price updates and Mark as sold.
- Delete sold listings (top of the Inventory Manager) clears listings already marked sold from your Facebook Selling page, so every run is faster. Nothing on your website changes.
Facebook groups
Turn on AI picks the best groups in your Post settings. LeadEyePro then offers each new listing to the Facebook groups that fit it. No groups found means the listing goes to Marketplace only.
If your account has the Group Poster, it shares a unit you already posted: open it from the menu, select the unit, choose the groups and click Post to group. Nothing posts to a group until you click.
Colored buttons on your website
Some dealership websites show LeadEyePro's colored buttons on every unit. If yours does, this is what they mean:
POST TO FBBlue: not on Facebook yet. Click it to post.
POSTEDGreen: on Facebook at the right price. Nothing to do.
UPDATE PRICEOrange: the website price changed. Click it and LeadEyePro fixes the Facebook price.
My Account and two computers
- My Account (in the menu) shows who is signed in and your store. Change your password or sign out there.
- Two computers: sign in with the same account on both. Your posts and the latest Inventory Manager results follow your account.
- Sharing a computer: sign out before someone else signs in. Each account only ever sees its own work.
Stay safe on Facebook
- No more than 10 new posts a day.
- Wait 10 to 15 minutes between posts, or let the queue do it for you.
- Keep both tabs open until a post is done.
- Run the Inventory Manager once a day.
- Use your own Facebook account. Never share your LeadEyePro password.
If something looks wrong
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| No LeadEyePro button on your website | Check that you are signed in (puzzle piece, then LeadEyePro, Home tab). Refresh the page (Ctrl+R). Still nothing? Open chrome://extensions, click the round arrow on LeadEyePro, then refresh the page. |
| A post stopped halfway | Make sure both tabs stayed open and Facebook is signed in. Then post it again. |
| A wrong price on Facebook | Run the Inventory Manager. The listing shows under Price updates. |
| A listing tied to the wrong unit | In the Inventory Manager, find it under Posted and click Unmatch. Then pick the right unit under Pick the unit. |
| The Inventory Manager missed listings | Start it from the LeadEyePro menu on your website and let it finish without touching the Facebook window. Facebook loaded slowly? Run it again. |
| Anything else | Puzzle piece, then LeadEyePro, then Contact Us: add a short note and click Send Diagnostic Report. Or email support@leadeyepro.com with the stock number and a screenshot. |
Questions
Do I need to keep my computer on while the queue posts?
Yes. Keep Chrome open with your website tab. The queue posts one unit at a time with a pause between, and Facebook comes to the front for each one.
Can I change the description before it posts?
Yes. The description box shows exactly what will post. Change any words you like before you click Post to Facebook.
Why does a listing show up under Pick the unit?
It was posted on Facebook before LeadEyePro, so LeadEyePro does not know which unit it is. Pick the right one once and it moves to Posted for good.
What happens when a unit sells?
The next Inventory Manager run shows it under Mark as sold. Click Mark as sold and LeadEyePro marks it sold on Facebook.
Does it post to Facebook groups?
When AI picks the best groups is on, each new listing is offered to the groups that fit it. Nothing posts to a group you did not choose.
Who do I ask for help?
Your manager first. Then Contact Us in LeadEyePro (Send Diagnostic Report), or email support@leadeyepro.com.
