Description
PrivSource operates as an exclusive, invite-only network and platform for deal sourcing tailored specifically for lower-middle-market mergers and acquisitions. It serves as a secure online marketplace that connects pre-verified buyers with confidential seller engagements, allowing buyers to discover off-market opportunities while enabling sellers to discreetly promote their transactions without incurring success fees. Buyers can request access to the platform, browse live deal flows from business owners, and interact directly with sellers under strict confidentiality agreements, while sellers have the ability to list their enterprises or seek capital, ensuring they retain control over their assets and engage with a vetted pool of potential buyers. Emphasizing the importance of trust and data security, PrivSource requires buyers to undergo an application and approval process, with most deals being off-market and not available to the public. This innovative platform streamlines the entire process through a digital workflow, or “deal network,” enhancing the efficiency of sourcing, evaluating, and matching parties without the burdens associated with conventional brokerage auction systems, ultimately benefiting both buyers and sellers. Additionally, the platform fosters a collaborative environment where participants can build lasting relationships that may lead to future opportunities.
Description
Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is an automotive software platform built to help car dealerships acquire high-quality used vehicles directly from private sellers—without relying on auctions. As wholesale prices rise and vehicle availability tightens, VAN empowers dealers with tools to source inventory faster, more profitably, and with greater control.
VAN aggregates local FSBO (for-sale-by-owner) listings, applies real-time market data to assess profitability, and automates communication with sellers at scale. Buyers can manage leads, track seller conversations, and streamline acquisition workflows through an intuitive CRM-style dashboard designed specifically for dealership teams.
For dealers who don’t have dedicated acquisition staff, VAN offers a Managed Buyer program, pairing stores with expert buyers who actively source, engage, and negotiate with private sellers on their behalf—saving time and boosting acquisition volume without internal hiring.
VAN is trusted by hundreds of dealerships across North America—from independent rooftops to franchise groups—looking to beat Carvana and CarMax at their own game. It's the smarter way to buy cars.
