CANOGA PARK, Calif. -

Now personnel at dealerships using AutoManager can say they’re not wasting time if a manager spots someone on Facebook.

The dealer management software company recently announced that WebManager, its comprehensive vehicle marketing system, has integrated with Facebook Marketplace. This integration is accessible within the WebManager application and can allow a dealer to export the store’s entire used-vehicle inventory to Facebook Marketplace.

AutoManager mentioned that also built in to this integration is real-time communication between dealers and shoppers via Facebook Messenger.

Facebook Marketplace offers a dedicated discovery and search experience designed to help people find their next vehicle.

“Making Facebook Marketplace available to all our WebManager dealers means we are able to increase the scope of our dealers’ reach, and as a result, our dealers could see more customer opportunities and enjoy more potential customer engagement,” said AutoManager president and chief executive officer Kami Tafreshi.

The company acknowledged that dealers have wanted to list their inventory on Facebook Marketplace. AutoManager dealers can now:

• List pre-owned vehicle inventory to Marketplace

• Receive notifications from interested shoppers and engage in real-time chat through Messenger

• Acquire high-quality leads through Marketplace
