Inventory marketing, managed VIN by VIN

Every car on your lot is different. Most marketing treats them the same.

VIN IQ builds a marketing strategy for every VIN — then puts it into action through the ad accounts and budget you already have. So the right cars get the right support, and you turn faster, waste less, and capture more of your market.

The problem

Every part of the deal is managed per VIN — except marketing.

Pricing and appraisal evolved around VIN-level intelligence. Marketing still plans, spends, and measures in aggregate—not VIN by VIN. Ad platforms shape which vehicles get attention, leaving dealers unable to see what is happening or take action at the vehicle level.

What it costs the dealer

When marketing works in bulk, individual VINs pay the price.

Invisible inventory

If a vehicle goes unseen, it goes unsold.

VIN Attention

Only 11 of 100 vehicles are getting meaningful exposure and engagement.

Wasted ad spend

Up to 80% of your budget is driving redundant traffic to the same popular vehicles.

Spend per VIN · Day 1 of 30
Vehicle A
$1,328
Vehicle B
$1,044
Vehicle C
$716
Vehicle D
$499

Your top four vehicles are consuming $3,586.78 of your marketing budget.

Missed opportunities

Ignoring market conditions and demand keeps you reactive instead of proactive.

VIN H4R210 has high demand, low visibility, and 52 days in inventory — a missed sales opportunity.

What VIN IQ does

Faster turn. Less waste. More of your market.

Every hour, VIN IQ evaluates each vehicle's shopper attention — both exposure and engagement — against demand and market opportunity, then directs your existing media budget toward the VINs that need it most. Aged and at-risk inventory gets the support it needs before a markdown becomes the only option.
