What is Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN)?

The Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) represents a groundbreaking solution designed to revolutionize how automotive dealerships engage in private-party vehicle acquisitions. By integrating over 20 distinct sourcing platforms, it provides users with vital resources to effectively connect with sellers and navigate a variety of opportunities. Utilizing advanced market scanning technology, the system uncovers undiscovered vehicles and offers real-time updates, filtering out listings that fail to align with specific criteria, thus maximizing efficiency. Moreover, it incorporates various integrated communication methods, such as text messaging and click-to-call functionalities, to improve interactions with sellers, while an in-app messaging feature keeps all discussions organized within each vehicle's listing, streamlining follow-up processes. The Seller Relationship Management system of VAN diligently records every interaction with private sellers, ensuring a smooth acquisition process, and it also boasts customizable reporting capabilities that provide valuable insights throughout the entire acquisition experience. In addition to simplifying the process for dealerships, VAN empowers them to make well-informed decisions in a highly competitive marketplace, ultimately enhancing their operational effectiveness. This innovative platform not only saves time but also fosters stronger relationships between dealerships and sellers, paving the way for a more efficient vehicle acquisition landscape.

What is Inventory Connect?

You're in charge! Carbase's tagging capability allows you to assign specific labels to vehicles, such as 'ownerspecial', which aids in crafting tailored merchandising pages that showcase features like highlighted inventory, weekly deals, and exclusive offers. You can easily add Featured Inventory to any current page or set up a dedicated one to spotlight older stock, ensuring it is prominently featured to entice potential buyers. Regardless of whether you label it as special pricing, internet pricing, or use any other terminology, you have the option to establish expiration dates for these prices, design an inventory page with a name you prefer, and apply special pricing to specific vehicles. Furthermore, you can integrate manufacturer rebates and incentives into your SRP and VDP to present the most competitive prices, attracting potential customers. Everyone enjoys securing a fantastic bargain! Leveraging Carbase websites to generate weekly promotions is a smart approach to highlight selected vehicles from your dealership over a specified period, which helps you efficiently manage your inventory and boost sales. This functionality not only drives sales but also enhances customer interaction by keeping them updated on the latest promotions and special offers, ultimately fostering a stronger connection with your audience.
