Dealer Specialties
We provide vehicle photography, window sticker labels, electronic labels, and vehicle data distribution services that help new and used car dealers present inventory and support compliance with FTC used-vehicle disclosure requirements. Our work is focused on producing the photos and labels dealers use to market vehicles more effectively on the lot and online. We operate through proprietary software, including AutoStik™ and RapidLot™, to create and manage these materials. Our service is built for automotive dealers who need accurate vehicle information and consistent, ready-to-use sales displays.
