LocaliQ Enhances Platform With Conversational AI and AI-powered Lead Management

LocaliQ, Gannett’s Digital Marketing Solutions business, has launched Dash by LocaliQ, an AI-powered lead management SaaS solution designed to help businesses convert more leads into customers, faster and more efficiently.

With automated lead scoring, follow-ups, and reporting, plus advanced AI agents and a cutting-edge SMS conversational tool, Dash streamlines workflows, eliminates manual tasks, and boosts revenue for businesses of all sizes. Integrated with LocaliQ’s AI marketing platform, Dash enables businesses to enhance customer experiences, automate workflows, and save time to focus on growing their business.

A major enhancement is the Dash SMS Agent, a conversational AI tool that instantly responds to SMS leads, addressing a key challenge where 40% of SMS inquiries go unanswered. Using natural language processing and machine learning, the AI efficiently qualifies leads, helping businesses grow.
“Dash by LocaliQ is revolutionizing how businesses approach lead management,” said Alex Hunsucker, Chief Product Officer at LocaliQ. “By combining cutting-edge AI capabilities with intuitive conversational agents and automation features, we’re equipping business owners with tools that not only save time but also enhance their ability to connect with potential customers. Dash empowers organizations to prioritize what truly matters — growing their business and fostering meaningful customer relationships.”

Recently recognized as a winner of the 2025 BIG Innovation Award, we’re excited to continue enhancing the Dash with even more conversational AI innovations in the coming months.

Now They’ve Found You™: The Story Behind LocaliQ’s New Tagline

LocaliQ is thrilled to announce the introduction of its new tagline, “Now they’ve found you,” as part of its ongoing commitment to delivering innovative, results-driven solutions in the digital marketing space. This impactful phrase encapsulates the value LocaliQ brings to businesses, flipping the traditional approach to lead generation. The tagline has been proudly unveiled through a dynamic website refresh, cementing its role as a driving force in shaping our internal culture and amplifying our external marketing initiatives.

Unlike the standard model where businesses tirelessly seek the right customers, “Now they’ve found you” puts the power back in the hands of our clients. By leveraging advanced AI-driven technology and strategic marketing approaches, we are enabling businesses to attract the right audience organically—helping them connect with their customers effortlessly.

This tagline isn’t just a statement; it’s a promise. The word “Now” conveys immediacy and optimism, signaling a clear break from the status quo. It represents a pivotal moment where customers no longer need to search in vain. Instead, the shift happens with ease—“Now” their customers find them.

At its core, the tagline is clear, conversational, and rooted in an understanding of our audience. It speaks directly to our customers, emphasizing their needs and challenges, rather than focusing on us. Through this, “Now They’ve Found You” communicates a feeling of relief and reassurance, acknowledging the effort it takes to grow a business while creating an emotional connection with our brand.

The warmth and human element behind this tagline reflect LocaliQ’s belief in making marketing feel personal. It’s not just about driving results; it’s about empowering our clients to see their customers not as numbers but as real people with real needs.

This refresh marks an exciting new chapter for LocaliQ and the businesses we serve. “Now They’ve Found You” symbolizes the next step in our mission to provide meaningful connections in a complex digital world.
