CarBee and AutoGrab set to unveil innovations for Victorian LMCT’s

12 July 2024

Essential Event for Victorian LMCTs: Revolutionising Online Classifieds

For over two decades, Licensed Motor Car Trader (LMCT) members have urged VACC to explore online classified models, seeking the most contemporary and cost-effective solutions. The rise of online platforms has dramatically transformed how LMCTs reach mass audiences, while consumer buying behaviour has evolved significantly.

Today's digital-savvy consumers have new expectations about how they consume information online.

Throughout this period, LMCTs have been mindful of their expenditure, aiming for positive outcomes. A common concern among LMCTs is that online classifieds providers sometimes earn more from a vehicle sale than the traders themselves.

VACC and LMCT Executive Committees' Approach

In response to these industry changes driven by technology, consumer behaviour, and dealer innovation, the VACC LMCT Executive Committees have partnered with CarBee and AutoGrab. These companies will host a special LMCT session to explore the latest in technology and data, presenting exciting opportunities for the industry and individual dealerships.

Event Details:

  • Date: Tuesday, 23 July at 2:30 PM
  • Location: VACC House (Level 3), 650 Victoria Street, North Melbourne

This event is open to all LMCTs, including new car, truck, motorcycle, and farm machinery dealers, as well as independent used car traders. Please note that there will be no online attendance option available.
