Guides

Hand-outs for your first internal meeting.

01 · FOR THE GM

How Zumbay works

One page from feed to vehicle page: what Zumbay reads, publishes, and records by VIN.

02 · FOR INVENTORY

Feed readiness checklist

Every field a vehicle needs—VIN, trim, price, photos, and VDP URL—ready for your feed provider.

03 · FOR AGENCIES

Evidence vocabulary

Clear definitions for connected, partial, recorded, not connected, and illustrative states.

The short loop

Named, clicked, and closed at the VIN.

  • Influenced vs. attributed: Named in an answer stays separate from clicks and VDP visits.
  • Organic vs. paid: Optional paid AI placement sits on its own line.
  • Closed at the VIN: Attribution ends on your vehicle page without reading your CRM.
