Statistics
Dealer Statistics Dashboard: Know Your Numbers
The statistics dashboard consolidates your wholesale activity into measurable trends. It shows how many evaluations you create, how many receive offers, how quickly those offers arrive, and which wholesalers are bidding.
The dealer statistics dashboard turns your day-to-day activity, evaluations, offers, response times, and wholesaler participation, into figures you can track over time. It shows what is working on your wholesale desk rather than leaving it to estimation.
What the dashboard shows you
Every evaluation you create and every offer that returns is recorded, and the dashboard brings the data together: how many units you appraised, how many received offers, how quickly those offers arrived, and which wholesalers are bidding. Open the dashboard from Statistics in your account.
The metrics worth watching
A few figures carry the most useful signal:
- Share of evaluations that receive an offer. Across the platform this runs around 83%. Your own figure indicates whether your buyer list and your descriptions are performing.
- Time to first offer. Platform-wide the median is about 55 minutes. A substantially longer time points to your buyer list or your send timing.
- Offers per evaluation. More bidders mean more competition and a stronger result. The platform average is about 2.4.
- Which wholesalers bid, and which do not. This metric is easy to overlook and often the most informative.
Why wholesaler participation matters
Most buyer lists carry inactive contacts: names you continue to text who have not submitted a real offer in a year. The dashboard identifies who is competing for your vehicles and who only receives the messages.
This information supports better list management, because the wholesale send is only as effective as the buyers receiving it, and clean, extracted bids are what make these figures reliable in the first place.
When the dashboard tells you less
Metrics need volume to be meaningful. If you wholesale only a few units a month, the dashboard functions more as a log than as a trend. The patterns become clear once you have enough evaluations and offers flowing for them to emerge.
FAQ
What does the statistics dashboard track?
Your evaluations, the offers that returned, response times, and wholesaler activity, drawn from your actual use of VFT.
Are these my numbers or platform numbers?
Yours. The dashboard shows your dealership’s activity. Any platform-wide figures in our guides are provided only for comparison.
Can it tell me which wholesalers are worth keeping?
It shows who is actually bidding versus who only receives your messages. The decision is yours, but the data is available.
Do I need a lot of data for it to be useful?
Some. Trends need volume. A handful of units a month reads more like a log. The patterns appear once you are running real volume.
Where do the numbers come from?
From your own evaluations and the offers attached to them, including bids extracted automatically. The cleaner the bids, the more accurate the dashboard.
