OAK BROOK, Ill. -

Dealers looking for first-hand training on vAuto’s new inventory management tool called Provision can join senior vice president John Griffin for a session that’s scheduled for 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Dec. 8 in Overland Park, Kan.

Griffin plans to lead the training session and best practices workshop to help vAuto dealers maximize their ability to use Provision’s “3 Easy Clicks” functionality to improve their used-vehicle department profits and sales.

Griffin believes the workshop will help dealers in several areas, including:

—Establish/refine used-vehicle inventory levels and retailing strategy.

—Determine the “right” vehicles to buy using Provision’s buy list recommendations.

—Know what to pay for specific vehicles with Provision’s bid guidance, which accounts for dealership gross profit and inventory turn goals.

—Find needed vehicles using Provision’s integrated access to auction run lists.

—Bring home new ideas to improve used-vehicle sales and profits from best practice discussions with vAuto users.

To reserve a spot, dealers can send an email message to Mandi Fang at mfang@vauto.com by Dec. 2. The message should contain the subject line: Interest in Kansas Provision Workshop.

Auto Remarketing published details of Provision when it was launched on Nov. 11. The story can be found here.
