Tips for Success
Complete Your Profile First
A complete seller profile with logo, business description, and verified contact details builds immediate trust with buyers. Sellers with complete profiles receive 40% more inquiries.
Invest in Quality Photos
Well-lit, multiple-angle photos are the single biggest factor in listing performance. Clean the vehicle, shoot in daylight, and include at least 12 images covering all angles, interior, engine, and any damage.
Respond Quickly to Inquiries
Your response time directly impacts your Trust Score and conversion rate. Aim to respond within 4 hours during business hours. Use message templates for common questions.
Price Competitively
Research similar listings to price your vehicles competitively. The platform shows you market comparisons to help you set the right price. Overpriced listings get fewer views and inquiries.
Use Featured Listings Strategically
Feature your best vehicles or those that need an extra push. Featured listings receive 5-10x more visibility than standard listings.
Keep Your Inventory Current
Regularly update your listings, remove sold vehicles promptly, and refresh stale listings. Active sellers rank higher in search results.
