Vehicle Acquisition Network

Vehicle Acquisition Network Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) — the leader in consumer vehicle acquisition for dealerships. Founded 2013.

Software & Managed Buyer programs helping thousands of dealers buy cars directly from consumers. Vehicle Acquisition Network is a technology that enables dealers to identify the low hanging fruit in the market of pre-owned vehicles by offering for sale by private sellers and solutions for a quick, easy contact. Dealers are too busy to manage the manual process of finding private seller vehicles, looking up a relative wholesale value and contacting these private sellers (many cases are buyers trying to get a fair value). Vehicle Acquisition Network has solutions for these dealers to make this process quick and easy.

What happens when your dealership has the right person, the right process, and the right tools focused on acquisition every single day?

That’s where VAN’s Managed Buyer program is making a difference.

Managed Buyers aren’t just waiting for cars to show up. They’re working opportunities, following up with customers, staying focused on the dealership’s inventory needs, and creating a consistent acquisition process.

For dealerships, that means more accountability, more opportunities being worked, and ultimately more cars being acquired directly from customers.

The goal is simple: build a repeatable process that keeps acquisition moving every single day.

That’s what Managed Buyer is doing for dealerships across the country.

“Winners know the score, and champions know what put it there.” — David Long

Your acquisition team should always know where they stand, what needs to happen next, and what it takes to reach the goal.

That’s why VAN is more than an inventory or outreach tool. It creates clarity and accountability for buyers and leadership alike.

Because when everyone knows the score, everyone knows what it takes to win.

If you’re serious about vehicle acquisition, you need the right system behind it.

Just like a CRM is essential to running your sales operation, VAN is built to be the CRM for your acquisition operation.

The dealers using VAN aren’t trying to force old systems to do a new job—they’re building the infrastructure to acquire more vehicles and perform at a higher level.

Acquisition deserves its own CRM.
