What is repetitive dealership work costing you?

Vehicle updates, photo preparation, and lead admin all take time. See what that work adds up to, then explore whether the value of time freed could cover your software budget.

Start with an example, then use your own volumes, target times, and optional employee cost. Your targets are assumptions, not measured DealerOS performance.

Unmeasured example · Replace with your numbers

Start with a typical week

Count work across your team. Minutes are team time per update or vehicle. Count shared tasks once so they do not appear in two rows.

Target minutes are a scenario you choose, not a DealerOS benchmark. A higher target means more time, not a saving.

Inventory updates

Editing vehicle details, pricing, and listing information.

5 hours now → 3.3 target hours / week1.7 hours freed / week

Photo preparation

Preparing photos and getting them ready to publish.

5 hours now → 3.3 target hours / week1.7 hours freed / week

Lead follow-up admin

Updating records, reminders, and follow-up status. Exclude sales calls and customer conversations.

Your hypothetical scenario

Weekly capacity freed

Time freed can go toward customers and sales. Any financial benefit depends on how your team uses that time.

Annual capacity freed

Monthly average freed

Weekly time at your targets

How this is calculated

For each workflow: weekly count × (minutes now − target minutes) ÷ 60. The total includes increases when a target takes longer.

Annual time change = weekly time change × 48 working weeks. Average monthly time = annual time ÷ 12.

Time value = time change × your hourly cost. Hours needed to match your budget = monthly budget ÷ hourly cost.

These inputs and results are planning assumptions, not measured DealerOS performance or guaranteed savings.
