Over the last 28 months, AutoDeal.com.ph has worked tirelessly to become the Philippines’ No. 1 buying platform for brand new cars. Now, they’re taking on new a new challenge by expanding into used car classifieds.
Its founders Daniel Scott and Christopher Franks, however, are no strangers to the scene. They were already making it big in the used car classified scenes a few years back with Pinoy Auto Trader before they sold it to Sulit.com.ph (now OLX.ph) in early 2013. With the same team, they built AutoDeal from the ground up in mid-2014 and here they are today… providing lead management solutions to more than 350 new car dealers across the country.
There is a good reason though behind the move (except for more revenue). It allows them to complete the loop in the car buying cycle, stringing the new and used car market together.
“Incorporating used cars into AutoDeal was the natural next step given our good growth in the new car industry over the last 2 years. Everything was built to create great synergy between our used-car offerings and existing new car business. This way AutoDeal will not only add the benefit of enabling Filipinos to buy and sell pre-owned cars but also help extend value to our existing network of partners in the new car industry,” stated Scott.
AutoDeal’s Used Car Classifieds has been tailor-fit for the Philippine market and offers several industry-first features to help both used car buyers and sellers.
They have a ‘Price-Drop Alert’ that notifies a car buyer when a vehicle price changes. There’s also a ‘Detailed Used-Car Database’, with all tech specs of every vehicle sold in the Philippines over the last decade, which auto-fill listings to help sellers. And unlike other disorganized sites, AutoDeal allows buyers to shop between Certified Pre-Owned, Repossessed, and Standard second-hand vehicles.
With this expansion, AutoDeal will not only extend its position as market leaders in the new car industry, but also in used cars. And mind you, they’re not your run-of-the-mill car listings website. These guys have heavily invested in developing their own front-end advertising features, dealer management and marketing tools, and analytics platform that makes them the best at what they do.
“AutoDeal has always been more than just basic buy and sell website. We’ve created an ecosystem that has been incredibly successful in guiding buyers through the sales cycle. The technology that we already have in place for new cars is going to really complement our offerings in used car,” Scott added.
