How do we get our inventory on Yahoo Autos?

What inventory management service are you using (homenet, vauto, VIN, lotwizard, etc.) ??

We mostly just use the backend Dealer.com inventory manager to export.

Our inventory is actually appearing on Yahoo Autos now. I had set up an export to Vast a few weeks ago, but our inventory didn't start showing up on Yahoo until just now. I just sent in a test lead from the Yahoo Auto VDP and it came straight to our email, so that's nice I guess. No need to pay some company $20 for leads from Yahoo apparently.
 

✨ AI Highlights

A dealer asks how to get inventory listed on Yahoo Autos, discovering that Yahoo sources inventory from third-party aggregators like Detroit Trading and Vast rather than directly from dealers. After research and experimentation, the dealer learns that configuring an export through inventory management services like Vast can get listings on Yahoo without paying lead aggregators a markup fee, allowing leads to come directly to the dealership instead.
