GRIDFRAME LABSThe dealership edition
GridFrame for car dealers
Built with input from an independent dealer: the cars, the deals, the paperwork and your website in one place, on your own computer.
Inventory
Every car with its photos, cost, asking price, status (in stock, reserved, pending, sold, wholesale, consignment) and days on the lot. Add cars one by one or import them from a spreadsheet; export to CSV any time.
Recon
The reconditioning work on each car, with its costs, so you know what a car really cost before you price it.
Sales and deals
Deals with trade-ins, payments and receipts, and the paperwork that goes with each sale.
IRS Form 8300 warning
When a buyer's cash payments add up to more than $10,000, GridFrame warns you that a Form 8300 is due and keeps track of it.
Your website
A dealership website with your cars, their photos and prices, kept up to date from your inventory. A visitor's question about a car arrives in GridFrame as a lead, with an alert to you.
Car finder
Write down what each customer is looking for; when a car comes in, GridFrame shows which customers it matches.
Test drives
A log of who drove which car and when.
Shipping
Keep track of cars being shipped in or out.
Stories
Write about your cars and your dealership on your website.
Parts, vendors and purchase orders
The parts you keep, who you buy from, and what you have ordered.
Reports
What sold, what it made, and what has been sitting too long.
For your accountant
Ready-made QuickBooks files and a one-file download of everything.
