A good system will work for you in more ways than one. CarMarquet comes with a range of reports that help you to manage your stock.
What price indeed; success in car sales depends strongly on getting the price right. CarMarquet helps you to position your cars on AutoTrader so that they are are the cheapest amongst many similar offerings. Sometimes dropping the price by a fiver is all it takes to make your car appear in front of a dozen near-identical cars.
Status reports can show how well you are presenting your stock; do they have a full complement of photographs? Have you added a sales pitch? Is it long enough?
A slow moving stock report shows cars that are sitting around, tying up your capital when they should be cruising out the gate. "I know which cars have been there too long" is something many dealers say; so why are the cars still there? Get the information down in black and white, showing when you last changed the price and by how much, and you can really make informed decisions.
"Leave it a week or two - it might sell" is not what you should be thinking about high-value items that are depreciating constantly. Get it in shape and ship it out.
We all know the two things you cannot avoid: death and taxes.
There is no need to make things more unpleasant than necessary, however. Enter all the relevant details into CarMarquet, and it will produce your car sales VAT figures for you.
CarMarquet takes note of what you can reclaim VAT for, and what is not allowed, and helps you to keep everything straight.
Let CarMarquet do the heavy tax calculation work while you sit back and relax. Afraid we can't help you with paying the VAT man, though - you are on your own there!
CarMarquet also provides you with an electronic stock book, with all the details required by law. This is another case of donkey work that can be done wrong - it is not hard to do the sums, but it is easy to get them wrong. CarMarquet uses a computer ... to get it right.
