I work with a few dealers in rural Oklahoma that are currently taking photos in-house. They neglect their new inventory altogether, in part because they don't have the time for it.

I think some of these dealers would be open to working with a third party if the prices were not too steep. Does anyone here know of a few good local groups or larger groups that service OK?

My recommendation is to find a local college kid or high schooler who can get to the dealership with a decent camera.
We've helped plenty of dealers setup this model with a college photography student and they're usually able to keep up with inventory turn.
Some stores need 2, but it's typically still more cost effective.

Kristin, they have the time, they are just lazy! If the dealers are using Homenet or Dominion, they can use their respective apps (Snaplot, Digitallot, IVM) to easily scan a barcode on a new cars Maronne Label, then to pull up the vehicle, then snap a pic or two and have it uploaded and showing on the website within a day.

I'd do it for $5 per car if I was in the area, with your software. And you'll be happy.

Aw, that's harsh! I think they're just spread pretty thin and don't believe hiring more people will provide a greater ROI. That's an on-going discussion...

Everyone, thanks for your tips!
