How to Prepare Dealership Cars for Facebook Marketplace
A practical checklist for dealers preparing accurate car listings for Facebook Marketplace, from photos and mileage to prices and review.
The context
Posting a dealership vehicle starts before you open the listing form. Accurate source information, current inventory and useful photos make the process more reliable for the salesperson and the shopper.
Step 1: Verify availability
Confirm that the vehicle remains available in your inventory system. If it is on hold, sold or not ready to advertise, resolve that before posting.
Step 2: Check the vehicle page
Use the dealership's vehicle detail page as a source. Review the year, make, model, trim, stock number, mileage, condition, features and selling price. Make sure the photos belong to this exact vehicle.
Step 3: Choose helpful photos
Include clear images showing the exterior from different angles, interior, dashboard and important features. Avoid using photos that misrepresent the vehicle. Be mindful that platforms may limit photo counts or formats.
Step 4: Write for real shoppers
A descriptive title can identify the year, make, model and trim. The description should explain relevant equipment and condition clearly. Avoid stuffing unrelated location or competitor keywords into the listing.
Step 5: Prepare the listing
On a supported dealership website, ExtWiz Marketplace Poster can help transfer available vehicle details and photos into a Marketplace preparation workflow. Review and correct every imported value before continuing.
Step 6: Review and publish manually
Before publishing, verify price, mileage, location, condition, photos and any required disclosures. Follow Facebook Marketplace's applicable terms, eligibility rules and limits. Final publication requires the user's review and action.
Step 7: Maintain the advertisement
Check inquiries and remove or update listings when inventory changes. The most useful advertisement is an accurate one.
