Description

Backlist is an innovative software solution designed for car dealers to acquire vehicles from private sellers in real time. It monitors platforms such as Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Autotrader, Cars.com, and eBay, efficiently filtering out duplicate listings and those disguised by dealers, while promptly notifying buyers when a private seller lists a vehicle that fits their specified criteria, including make, model, year, price, mileage, and location. Each listing is evaluated against both wholesale and retail market values, providing buyers with essential margin information prior to making any calls. The integrated CRM system meticulously tracks every lead from initial outreach to final sale, incorporating features like team pipelines, seller phone detection, and SMS/email communication tools. Backlist is favored by independent dealers, franchise used-car departments, multi-rooftop groups, and wholesalers as a means to secure inventory directly from owners instead of relying on auctions. The pricing is flexible with month-to-month options starting at $775, without requiring an annual commitment, plus a complimentary trial period. Users can access the service through a web dashboard as well as an iOS application, ensuring convenience and efficiency in their vehicle acquisition process.

Description

GARAGEBIRDS provides cloud-based management software tailored for independent used-car dealerships and smaller lots. This platform consolidates all essential information for each vehicle—such as specifications, images, purchase and recon expenses, asking price, deals, and paperwork—into a single record that follows the vehicle from acquisition to final sale. The free plan ($0, no credit card required, unlimited users) includes features like VIN decoding, inventory management, listings, cost tracking that calculates true profit per vehicle, cash desking with a detailed margin view for each deal, and built-in forms for title, registration, and bill of sale applicable in all 50 states, automatically populated from the deal details. In addition, buyer contacts are captured automatically for future reference. The Pro plan, available for $49 per month when billed annually or $59 monthly, comes with a 14-day trial that requires no credit card. It enhances the software with finance desking capabilities, including amortization tables, Smart Print Forms for the dealer's contracts, leads, quotes, and contact history, as well as the Posting Assistant. This Chrome extension simplifies the listing process by autofilling car details for platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, eBay Motors, Cars.com, and AutoTrader, allowing dealers to review and publish each listing easily. Furthermore, the software’s comprehensive features enable dealers to streamline their operations and improve efficiency significantly.
