ONLINE INVENTORY MANAGEMENT FOR AUTOMOTIVE DEALERSHIPS

In addition to the easy-to-use on-line forms for adding and editing your vehicle listings you can also save thousands of dollars in time with the batch upload feature. Instantly upload your vehicle inventory from a spreadsheet. This file can be created by your staff or can come directly from your Dealer Management System (DMS). The batch upload system will instantly display your vehicles directly on your Website and in the Aged Stock wholesale system along with several other Internet portals. Where applicable DMS examples include: ADP, Reynolds & Reynolds, and many more.

  • Instantly update your inventory on many sites all at once.
  • Batch upload multiple photos per vehicle
  • Automatic image cropping and photo compression on the fly
  • Web based access 24/7
  • Works for new and used vehicles
  • "Smart" system learns and remembers your preferences as you use it, reducing your workload.

The old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words can be multiplied more than 10 times. The Aged Stock system can batch upload up to eleven pictures per vehicle. Why so many? Our statistics tell us that a consumer will and does make their mind up on a vehicle over the Internet. The more pictures of a specific vehicle the easier the decision. Interior shots, rear shots, side shots, three-quarter shots the more the merrier!

EDI / Batch Upload to Third Parties

EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is another very valuable feature of the ASL systems that saves you time & money!

Successful dealerships have realized that showcasing inventory with detailed descriptions and photographs is important not only for your own web site - but to also display your inventory on other targeted web sites as well. You never want to send your customer shopping away from your "virtual lot" but the more traffic you can have directed to your web site (so that you can capture the lead!) the better!

ASL has designed our systems to work seamlessly with some of the top retail portal sites on the Internet - including manufactures' web sites.

Whether it is a simple manual batch upload from ASL or an automated feature that happens while you sleep - ASL will work hard to help you manage your on-line presence - decreasing your work load & increasing your sales
