Scotch serves as an all-encompassing operating system uniquely designed for liquor retailers, merging liquor-specific point of sale (POS), payment processing, back office operations, inventory oversight, ordering, receiving, analytics, and customer interaction tools into a unified platform. Unlike standard POS systems, Scotch caters to the distinct operational requirements of bottle shops, wine sellers, beer distributors, and liquor establishments by incorporating features such as case breaks, distributor invoice management, and the ability to handle thousands of SKUs from various suppliers. It ensures compliance with age verification, supports offline transactions, and offers real-time inventory monitoring. By optimizing transaction processes, this POS system empowers staff to finalize sales rapidly, enroll customers immediately, oversee rewards initiatives, manage split payments, secure transactions, and maintain a steady customer experience even during internet disruptions. Additionally, Scotch autonomously tracks parent-child inventory relationships, allowing retailers to sell any quantity—whether a single bottle, a six-pack, or multiple cases—while automatically updating related inventory types without requiring manual input or time-consuming end-of-day reconciliation. This streamlined approach significantly improves the shopping experience for retailers and customers, fostering better engagement and satisfaction. As a result, Scotch stands out in the market by not only enhancing operational efficiency but also contributing to a more enjoyable retail environment.

Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is buy center software for franchise and independent auto dealerships, built for buying used cars directly from private sellers. Dealers use it to buy from consumers in their market before those cars reach the auction lane.
How it works:
- VAN scans 25+ online marketplaces for for-sale-by-owner vehicles and puts them in one dashboard, matched to your buy box (year, make, model, mileage) inside your territory.
- It filters out listings from other dealers, scam listings, and Do-Not-Call numbers, decodes each VIN, and adds live market valuation.
- Your buyer calls, texts, and emails sellers from inside VAN, and every conversation stays attached to the vehicle.
- One click pushes a car into vAuto, where your manager appraises it. CARFAX and AutoCheck reports run inside VAN.
- VAN runs inside VINCUE Buy Center Pro as VAN Mode, where VINCUE applies your buy plan to each private-seller car.
Plans:
- Professional ($1,695/month): the core platform plus an Acquisition Coach™, an experienced private-party buyer who meets with your team. Every plan includes one.
- VAN Accelerate™ ($2,495/month): adds automated text and email outreach, automated follow-up for unresponsive sellers, automatic replies to KBB ICO leads within minutes, and automatic responses to AccuTrade leads.
- VAN Managed Buyer™ ($5,995/month, 90-day initial term): VAN hires, trains, and manages a full-time buyer who works only for your store on sourcing, outreach, and negotiation. Your desk inspects, makes the final buy decision, and signs the check.
Listed prices are starting rates; final price depends on territory size and number of users. Software plans go live in about four days, and Canadian dealers are billed in CAD.
VAN was founded in 2013 by Tom Gregg and serves dealers in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. To see VAN on your market, call 855-952-4949.
