Local sourcing workflow

A managed path from buy box to dealer appointment.

Each step gives your team a more useful signal than an unstructured lead: what the seller has, where it is, why it may fit, and what should happen next.

01

Define the buy box

Start with the makes, models, years, mileage, price range, and geography your team is actually prepared to review.

02

Find local private-party supply

BirdDog Sourcing organizes seller opportunities around your criteria and the Chicago-area and Midwest markets you want to reach.

03

Qualify the opportunity

Seller intent, consent, vehicle details, location, and appraisal context are gathered before a dealer spends time on the lead.

04

Hand off the next conversation

Organized follow-up moves qualified opportunities toward a dealer-ready appointment for your team to review and advance.

Trust and verification

Useful context before your team makes the call.

Acquisition work is more actionable when seller communication and vehicle context are clear. BirdDog Sourcing keeps the workflow structured so a dealer can review the opportunity with the right expectations.

  • Seller contact is consent-aware, with do-not-contact requests respected.
  • Vehicle, location, seller intent, and appraisal context stay structured for review.
  • Your team reviews the opportunity before a dealer handoff is treated as next-step ready.
  • An appointment or opportunity is kept distinct from an offer to purchase.

Dealer-ready handoff

Turn the next qualified opportunity into the next right conversation.
