SEARCH PRIVATE LISTINGS FOR CARS YOU WANT TO SELL ON YOUR LOT

Every dealer in the country is looking for new innovative ways to acquire used inventory to resell on their lot. Having a strong inventory acquisition procedure is key to selling more cars and increasing average gross on your used car sales. One of the most vital programs that your store needs to consider is buying used inventory from local customers advertising on for-sale-by-owner sites.

A successful vehicle exchange program will allow your dealership to stop relying solely on auto actions and start taking in profitable trade-ins that are well maintained and ready to sell. LeadLocate makes this process extremely simple. We will set up your account to target specific makes and models in your geographic area. As soon as a vehicle machining your requirements gets listed on one of the local FSBO sites you will see that lead in your account control panel. You can then simply send an SMS or an email through our system and invite the prospect to the dealership so you can make them an offer on their car. It is that simple.

We have all the tools integrated and you don’t even have to use your CRM until the lead is well qualified. Our used car inventory acquisition system is so powerful many of our clients dedicate entire departments to work the system on a daily basis and see unbelievable sales growth. You can send SMS, Email, and Ringless Voicemail in under 10 seconds and receive a response in less than 5 minutes. Can any of your other tools deliver results like that?

If you are a used car manager at a dealership and you are looking for a powerful tool that will give you that competitive edge, LeadLocate is it. You will be amazed at how many vehicles you can purchase from your local market and then resell them without doing much of reconditioning.

If you are a sales manager and want a better way to engage with local customers you will love our system even more than your acquisitions department.

LeadLocate delivers you live people who are selling their cars online and are willing to engage and listen to your offer. No more bothering old customers pretending that you want to “buy their vehicle back”, work with customers who are interested in selling.

CONSUMER VEHICLE ACQUISITION STRATEGIES

THE DIRECT-FROM-CONSUMER INVENTORY ACQUISITION OPPORTUNITY

Never before has it been more evident that a car dealer’s advertising power has very little effect on sales when the economy turns for the worst, or you just have a slow consumer spending month. As a car dealership, you need to have your own in-store vehicle acquisition software that allows you to cherry-pick used inventory buys without relying on dealer auctions.

Many car dealerships stay away from trying our direct from consumer inventory acquisition because they do not have in-house resources to run a program of this caliber. LeadLocate is here to provide you with a cost-effective solution to start your own vehicle acquisition program as soon as tomorrow. Because not enough dealerships have embraced consumer acquisition strategies, you will have a chance to dominate your local market almost instantly. The profitability of sourcing vehicles isn’t entirely what acquiring vehicles from private sellers is all about. What a salesperson should be most focused on is getting new customers they wouldn’t otherwise see.

According to a study done by AutoTrader.com, about 43% of consumers trade-in their vehicle at a dealership, and just 2% chose to sell their car dealership outright. That leaves a whopping 55% of potential leads that did not interact with your store what’s so ever. Dealerships are leaving millions of dollars a year on the table by ignoring a very valuable market segment that would help them improve profit margins and sell more cars. When done right, an in-store vehicle acquisition software can become a key driver of new revenue that you would have never otherwise captured.

For most dealerships, the biggest challenge will be overcoming consumers’ expectations of what their vehicle is worth in relation to the actual market value. We have developed LeadLocate to help you overcome all the common objections with predefined templates and custom automation processes to ensure you concentrate your efforts on customers that want to do business with you. If you are looking for innovative ways to generate car sales leads and fill up your used car lot with high-profit inventory, LeadLocate is the tool for you.
