WalkTheLot.com provides automobile dealerships, window sticker printing companies, and other companies who visit automobile dealerships and collect vehicle data, with a means of posting collected vehicle data to the Internet for the dealership to use to include their inventory in their own websites.

As with most major window sticker printing services, not only does the service sticker the vehicles but they also upload the collected data to any other services the dealership subscribes to. The DeskLot product is a great product to do this with and has for some time been being used by a ever increasing number of do-it-yourself dealerships and service companies, but up until now, dealerships wishing to print their own stickers and publish to their services themselves have not had a professional and attractive turn-key solution for listing their inventory on their own web sites. 

Unfortunately, the options out there not only look and function poorly but are ridiculously expensive. Also, the ever increasing number of sticker printing companies and portal services likewise have not had a reliable and quality "ready-to-roll" solution at their disposal. Enter the new WalkTheLot.com where this void is filled and ready for your use in mere minutes, without hundreds of thousands of dollars in development time.

WalkTheLot.com is not only great for service companies but may also be used by Dealerships who have either one dealership, or better yet, multiple dealerships that they want to manage inventory within one easy to use and customizable system so that they may list their inventory either combined (all dealerships) or by individual dealership. A perfect solution for Dealerships either already using DeskLot or those who want to replace a sticker service by doing it themselves (now they CAN by using DeskLot to print stickers and publish to other services and WalkTheLot.com to list their website inventory).

Our system includes top-quality, highly attractive, highly customizable modules such as a vehicle inventory search form, 3 inventory listing styles, vehicle detail with up to 50 photos, the ability to mark vehicles as Certified with an optional Certified logo/graphic, the ability to offer users a vehicle history report (requires you have a link to a history report website), a payment calculator and contact form, and a secure (SSL) credit application. Each page may be customized with your own graphics, background images, fonts, colors and text. Each dealership account within your account has it's own unique links and settings. Additionally, the master account owner also has their own customizable settings and links to display inventory for all dealerships within the master account so that they may display all vehicles in their network on their own site such as a sales site or web portal.

Basic Examples (under normal circumstances you would include these links within FRAMES in your existing site):

• A Master Account Showing Combined Inventory of 2 Member Dealerships With Style 2 Inventory List 
• Dealership 1 With Style 1 Inventory List
• Dealership 2 With Style 3 Inventory List

The following links are available for each dealership account as well as for the master account and each page for each account can be custom configured uniquely:

• Search Form All Inventory
• Search Form New Inventory
• Search Form Pre-Owned Inventory
• Search Form Certified Inventory
• Inventory List All Inventory
• Inventory List New Inventory
• Inventory List Pre-Owned Inventory
• Inventory List Certified Inventory
• Credit Application (Independent or Per Vehicle)

As mentioned, the typical use of WalkTheLot.com is for window sticker service companies (who typically use our DeskLot product) or other companies who collect vehicle data and have a need to be able to provide the dealership with a top-quality and highly customizable system for listing their inventory. 

The dealer service company collects the data from the dealership and uses a software product such as DeskLot to not only print window stickers and buyers guides and dump data to other services but also to dump the data to WalkTheLot.com via FTP, much in the same fashion that you would with other major services. Once the data dump is imported, you, the master account owner get a report letting you know that everything was imported fine, or in the case of an error, exact details on what records could not be imported and why.

The dealer service company signs up for a WalkTheLot.com account, and once they have done so, creates individual dealership accounts for each of their dealers. Each of these accounts and their associated settings and web page configurations may be customized to match the dealers site or simply to take on the look and feel the service company desires. 

Each of the dealerships have their own login name and password so that they may login to their individual account and delete vehicles that have been sold, update prices, etc. In fact, you, the master account owner can even configure permissions for each of your dealers to allow or disallow them the ability to change certain vehicle data. You even have control to Freeze individual dealership accounts within your account if need be (i.e. they didn't pay you in time).

The primary means of getting the vehicle data to WalkTheLot.com is done through our DeskLot Window Sticker Printing and Data Publishing Software (sold separately), however, you may use another package if you like as long as it is able to provide the data to WalkTheLot.com in the format required. Additionally, dealers (or you) may manually enter vehicle data and upload photo's if desired.

Not only can you use it to easily publish your vehicle data to WalkTheLot.com as well as numerous other services, you can be printing your own used-car window stickers and buyers guides in minutes with hundreds of pre-defined window sticker templates.
