How Does It Work?

AutoTraderClassics.com's Dealer Console gives you 24-hour access to our massive database of collector, exotic or specialty vehicles, and allows you to enter an unlimited amount of inventory - new or used collector, exotic or specialty vehicles - whatever you choose. With each collector, exotic or specialty vehicle listing, you have the opportunity to include up to eighteen full-color photographs showcasing the collector car from interior, exterior and other angles. In addition, you can provide detailed specs on each collector, exotic or specialty vehicle such as type, manufacturer, model, year, price, mileage, description, etc.

When AutoTraderClassics.com visitors search for a collector, exotic or specialty vehicle and the search criteria they enter matches, your collector, exotic or specialty vehicle is displayed along with others matching the same criteria. Visitors search by year, make, model, price, keyword, region, state, and/or area code. Dealer listings stand out among the results with a thumbnail photograph or logo appearing next to the text description of your collector, exotic or specialty vehicle. Interested buyers then click on your listing and proceed to review the detailed information you provide. Automated forms allow buyers to contact you for more information or they can opt to contact you via phone, fax, e-mail or even link to your web site. Visitors also have the option to search through your entire inventory to see all of the collector, exotic or specialty vehicles you have for sale. All sales leads are sent directly to you to handle as you deem appropriate.

What Do I Get?

After signing up, you'll receive your own unique login and password that allows you to create and manage your inventory listings. You'll have 24-hour access and can make add, delete or modify your information at any time with those changes appearing instantly in the AutoTraderClassics.com database. The Dealer Console offers several features that provide fast and accurate control of your listings. Those features are:

Inventory Management
Some of the information in this section is required while other fields are optional. The required fields ensure that we have all the information necessary in order to maximize the number of times your listing is returned in the search results. The optional information we request provides potential buyers with valuable details about your collector, exotic or specialty vehicle. Fields include vehicle type, manufacturer, model, year, price, mileage, description, etc. Additional features are available in order to maximize your presence and include the option to further enhance your listings with colored backgrounds, bold text, or featured positioning.

Photo Upload
For each listing you can include up to eighteen full-color photos, providing potential buyers with a full view of your collector, exotic or specialty vehicle. Photos help sell! Use photographs that showcase the collector, exotic or specialty vehicle offering images from multiple angles. The first photo uploaded will be utilized as the thumbnail photo that appears next to your listing in the search results. The thumbnail photo greatly enhances visibility and offers the viewer a glimpse of your collector vehicle.

Dealer Features
This section allows you to fine-tune your ad information. One of the features allows you to designate up to three area codes in your region that nearby buyers are likely to search. This is especially helpful for those businesses located in large metropolitan regions with multiple area codes. You also have the option to include a corporate logo or a sales message to be displayed on all your ad detail pages and sales sheets.

Reporting
Track the success of your listings using our exclusive dealer reporting feature. You can access the reporting feature at any time, 24 hours a day and determine how many times a particular collector, exotic or specialty vehicle was viewed and how many inquiries were sent to your dealership.

AutoTraderClassics.com's Dealer Console really works! See what other brokers and dealers have had to say:

"It took a long time for me to decide to try the [Dealer Console] but I am extremely glad I finally did. We have gotten a strong response to our ads — lots of lookers and some e-mails. Adding and modifying ads is so easy. It is really nice to be in control of our ad, to make changes when they are necessary and not to have to wait for the deadline for the next issue. I have had no problems moving around in the public parts of the site and moving around in the dealer portion is just as easy. Thanks!"

Jo Anne Kitching, Midway Auto Sales

"AutoTraderClassics.com is a great service. We use lots of different places but AutoTrader Classics seems to draw about 20-30 percent of all of our emails. We usually receive 20-40 e-mails a day. We use other paid sites such as Hemmings.com and they don't seem to put up as much action as AutoTrader Classics, so many cars and so many people, it's almost hard to make our cars stand out!"

Great Southern Classics

"I would highly recommend AutoTraderClassics.com. We have been using their service for approximately six months and we have done very well to increase all aspects of our business."

Dick Williams, Classic Cars International, Salt Lake, UT

"AutoTraderClassics.com's [Dealer Console] has been a successful sales tool. We've sold about 10-12 cars and we receive a lot of response on e-mail."

Gene Haggerty, Contemporary & Investment Automobiles, Inc., Gainesville, GA

"I'm very satisfied from advertising with AutoTraderClassics.com. We get a lot of phone calls and I'm happy about that. It's great!"

Al Pedalino, Mustangs Etc., Van Nuys, CA

"Thanks! We have gotten a lot of action on the site! I might add they are serious bites! I have a man from California coming for the '66 Nova! He bought his plane ticket on Sunday and he booked the first flight out that was available. Also, we've received lots of calls on that car too! But we promised the guy he had first dibs on it, since he bought a plane ticket. Thanks again!"

Carole Debolt, C & C Auto Sales Inc.
