Dealer Inventory Feeds

Collecting inventory from dealers to display on OEM websites or the GoRollick Marketplace has many facets. Inventory feeds have myriad nuances as they vary from dealer to dealer and website providers. Below are details to help understand the various details that impact a dealer's ability to send Rollick their data and, if they are sending it, why certain units may appear while others do not. 

 

NOTE: The inventory shown on the GoRollick Marketplace should never be compared to what is visible on the dealer's website or other consumer shopping sites. Some reasons below:

  • Dealers may show ‘coming soon’ units on their site which are not provided to Rollick.
  • Dealers may send different inventory feeds to various partners.
  • Other partners using the dealers' inventory feeds may elect to continue displaying units which are already sold. Rollick does not utilize this practice. As soon as a unit is known to be sold, it is removed from the Marketplace.

Other nuances to the data exist as well, the examples above reflect some of the most common causes of variance between the shopping experiences.

 

 

Blue - Enrollment/Onboarding

When an inventory project kicks off an enrollment form is sent to the OEM's dealers who are invited to participate. The dealers must submit the enrollment form to join the queue for the Rollick dealer onboarding team to complete their setup. 

Once enrolled, the dealer onboarding engages with the dealer to collect the necessary details for their inventory to be made visibile. Throughout this process, the following challenges which may cause delays may present themselves:

 

  1. Dealer utilizes a website provider who is not on Rollick's approved list/is custom. These setups are still possible; they just take more time.
  2. Once the dealer enrolls, they become non-responsive to the Rollick team's attempts to connect for setup completion.

Orange - Unit Data Challenges

When dealers send us their inventory feeds, the data in the feed must be ‘mapped’ in order for it to appear on an OEM's website and/or the GoRollick Marketplace. The activity of mapping a unit compares the information provided in the dealers' feeds against the standard vehicle description data Rollick has at it's disposal. Some examples of this include product data from the OEM's website and/or spec sheets provided to Rollick by the OEM. When this comparison takes place, Rollick establishes a value called a trimId for that unit's unique characteristic (i.e. Make/Brand, Model Name, Model Year, Trim)
