Does this business idea have any merit? Looking for flaws
I am a car salesman, and one thing I run into every day is customers wanting to shop their trade in quotes.
Enter my idea.
CarBid.com would give car shoppers a platform to list their trade in vehicle online and welcome bids from wholesalers and car dealers for a quick sale when buying a new car.
Essentially if you were trading in your 2009 Honda Accord on a new CRV and the Honda dealer offers you 10,000 for your Accord, you could also post your vehicle on CarBid.com and see if there is another dealer out there willing to pay more for it. This would put you at an advantage to get the most possible $ for your car.
This is effectively what happens when you trade in your car - the dealer buys it wholesale. This platform would give car buyers a means to compare trade in quotes from all dealers in the area to assure they are REALLY getting top dollar.
The site would act as an online auction, and would be free to use for the general public. The dealers using the site to scour for inventory and bid on cars would pay a monthly subscription fee. Ad space could also be sold.
Looking for some feedback....
