Turn your dealership page into vehicle ads

sizzledraft turns a car dealer's public Facebook page into a short video ad using its cover photo, profile image, recent post images and about text. The video can promote a vehicle walkaround or finance option, while later versions can follow a written prompt.

How can I turn my dealership Facebook page into a video ad?

Give sizzledraft the URL of your dealership's Facebook page. It drives a browser through the public page, captures the cover photo, profile image, recent post images and available about text, then builds scenes using the colours and visual cues it can identify. For a walkaround ad, recent vehicle images can become a sequence covering the exterior, cabin, wheels and key details shown in the post. For a finance-led ad, the copy can focus on a clearly published deposit, monthly payment or application message. The first video is cut from the page alone, so the public posts need to contain the vehicle and offer you want featured. Later videos accept a prompt for a chosen model, walkaround angle or finance focus.

What should a Facebook car dealer video ad include?

A useful dealer ad should identify the vehicle early, show several genuine views and give the buyer a clear next step. Start with the make, model or stock arrival, then move through the strongest public post images in an order that feels like a walkaround. Include only specifications and finance figures that appear in the source material or that you have supplied for a later prompted version. If the ad leads with monthly payments, keep the deposit, term and eligibility wording legible rather than squeezing every condition into one frame. Finish with the dealership name and a direct action such as viewing the listing, messaging the page or asking about finance. This keeps the video tied to an actual car and a realistic buying question.

Can I use the video for Facebook Reels and feed ads?

Yes. Vertical video is rendered at 1080x1920 for placements such as Reels, while horizontal video is 1920x1080 for wider placements. Both use 30fps and H.264, and the audio is normalised to -14 LUFS. Vehicle photos, finance text and dealership details are arranged for the chosen frame rather than simply shrinking one layout. If you want to use a trending sound, it is handed over as a link so you can attach it natively when publishing. It is not baked into the exported file because baked-in audio does not count as using that sound on the platform. Check the final placement preview to ensure finance disclosures and calls to action remain visible around interface overlays.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser can capture the dealership's public cover photo, profile image, recent public post images and about text. Facebook places much of its content behind a login wall, so private, restricted or login-only posts may not be available and the video must rely on the public material the browser can reach.

The common mistake

A common mistake is opening with a dealership logo while the featured car appears several seconds later. Show the actual vehicle or finance question in the first frame, then add the dealership identity once the buyer knows what is being offered.

  • Turning scattered vehicle photos from Facebook posts into a clear walkaround with a strong opening.
  • Explaining deposits, monthly payments and finance eligibility without making the screen crowded or the terms unclear.
  • Producing vertical and horizontal ads while keeping vehicle details, dealership branding and contact information readable.

Questions

Can you make a vehicle walkaround from Facebook post photos?
Yes, if the dealership has posted enough public images of the same vehicle. The video can sequence exterior angles, cabin shots and detail images like a short walkaround. It cannot create missing views, so a post with one front photo will produce a less complete tour than a post with several consistent images.
Can the ad promote our car finance options?
Yes. A finance-led video can highlight published information such as a deposit, monthly payment or invitation to apply. The wording should match the offer and include important conditions where needed. sizzledraft does not invent rates, approval claims or payment figures that are absent from the page or your later prompt.
What happens if our Facebook posts require a login?
The browser can use only content available from the public page. If recent stock posts, albums or details sit behind Facebook's login wall, they may not be captured. Keeping the featured vehicle images and essential offer text in a public post gives the first page-based video better source material.
How much does it cost to make dealership videos?
Two videos cost $19. The monthly option costs $39 for eight videos. The first video is cut from the dealership page alone, while later videos can accept a prompt directing the ad toward a specific vehicle walkaround, finance message or public stock post.
