Questions dealers ask about Hiring a VA
It depends entirely on hours. A VA bills for every listing, renewal, delist and reply, every month, and the hours grow with the lot. AutoPosting Pro is $9.90 for the first month, then $29.90/mo with unlimited vehicles, and does not take days off.
Usually consistency: renewals get missed and listings go stale, sold cars linger on Marketplace, and photos with dealer banner frames get posted as-is. None of that shows up until leads quietly slow down.
Yes, and it is a sensible split: let software handle posting, renewing, delisting and first-touch message replies, and put the human hours into working the leads that come back.
