Used Car Dealer Inventory App | Recon Bills and RO Tracker, Markup, Lot Stats & Window Sticker Printing | Car Dealership Software, Pay Once

Seller's description

Know what every car really cost.

Lotbook is a used car dealer inventory app for small lots, car flippers and independent dealers. It runs in your web browser on your phone, tablet or computer. Every bill and repair order goes on the car it belongs to. You see each car's true cost, its markup, the gross when it sells and what your whole lot is doing. Then you print the window sticker.

Not another car dealer spreadsheet: nothing to link up, no formulas to break.

WHAT YOU GET
• The Lotbook web app, with the link and your unlock code on the Start Here sheet
• An offline copy you can keep on your computer
• A 2-page Start Here sheet and a 10-page how-to guide
• Free updates: improvements appear the next time you open it

ADD A CAR
• Stock number, VIN, year, make, model, trim, km, colour, engine, transmission, drivetrain and fuel
• VIN decode fills in the details when you're online
• Purchase price, buyer and auction fee, and transport, all counted in the cost from day one
• Where you bought it: auction, trade-in, private purchase, wholesaler or lease return
• Photos for every car, taken right on your phone, with a cover photo
• Status: In recon, Front line, Deal pending, Sold or Wholesaled

BILLS AND REPAIR ORDERS
• Add a bill or RO to any car in two taps: vendor, RO number, category and amount
• HST works itself out as you type
• A photo of the bill, kept with it
• Your own categories: mechanical, body and paint, detail, tires, glass, safety, transport and fees
• Every bill adds to that car's true cost

PRICING WITH THE MATHS SHOWN
• Cost + markup = price, written out on every car
• Markup on cost and margin on price, side by side
• Price by markup %, rounded to 495 or 995, to 99, or to whole hundreds
• Your target markup with a minimum in dollars, in one tap
• An internet price, and the lowest you'll take with the profit left at that price
• Optional holding cost per day for floor-plan interest and lot costs

WINDOW STICKERS AND HANG TAGS
• A letter-size window sticker from each car's own details: photo, specs, features and a big price box
• Mirror hang tags, two to a page, with a cut circle for the hole
• Show the asking price, the internet price, a price you type, or "call for price"
• Your dealership name, phone, address and registration number on every one
• Print one car or the whole lot at once

LOT STATS
• Inventory dollars at true cost and the average cost per car
• Turns a year and the average days to sell
• Average markup, average gross per sale and recon per car

MAX BID CALCULATOR
