Image A: Image B: Image C: Continued on page 9 Of the 242,747 visitors to the platform, our participating dealers’ inventory has appeared in 2,487,559 search impressions on the platform. This has translated to 6,715 visitors to the VDP pages of our participating dealers’ websites. The platform is built with full transparency, with each car having a UTM, or Urchin Tracking Module, a simple code that is attached to the URL to generate Google Analytics data. This allows our local dealers to see the traffic and post-click attribution in their own Google Analytics accounts. This is automatically included with each car in our feed as part of the service. AUCTION NUMBERS & FEEDBACK In our private auction for NCDA members, 305 cars have been submitted by local residents for our dealerships to bid on. Of these 305 cars submitted, we have had over 712 bids on the platform, and 56 cars have been purchased. Feedback from consumers has been quite positive, with numerous users reaching out and sharing how thankful they are that we offer this as a community service. The consensus is that it is simple and convenient to post their car and simplifies the process without having to drive all over town to field offers.
