How can Signal help my independent dealership compete with larger franchises?

Signal levels the playing field by giving you direct access to US markets without needing the infrastructure or relationships that larger dealers have—letting you move inventory faster and access new sourcing channels.

How does the export process work for smaller inventory volumes?

Signal works for dealers of all sizes! While you can export up to 10 vehicles in a single load, many independent dealers start with just 1-2 vehicles to test the process before scaling up.

What kinds of vehicles typically get the best returns when exported?

Our data shows that late-model SUVs, trucks, and certain specialty vehicles often command significantly higher prices in US markets—our Signal Market Guide helps you identify these opportunities with precision.

How does Signal's financing work for independent dealers?

Upon DOT submission, you can receive 85-90% of US wholesale value, freeing up capital to continue acquiring inventory while your exported vehicles complete the process.

Do I need extensive documentation to export vehicles?

No—we handle the complexity. You provide basic vehicle documentation, and our system manages all compliance requirements, DOT submission, and titling processes.

How can I use Signal Market Guide to improve my purchasing decisions?

Signal Market Guide helps you identify vehicles with strong US market demand before you purchase them—letting you buy inventory that may sell slowly locally but command premium prices when exported.

What's the minimum commitment to start exporting with Signal?

There's no minimum commitment. You can start with a single vehicle to test the process, then scale at your own pace as you see the results.

How does Signal's remarketing process ensure I get the best prices?

Our three-tier remarketing waterfall includes Signal Private Lane for premium pricing, ACV Auctions with guaranteed sale protection, and strategic in-lane auction partnerships—ensuring every vehicle finds its optimal buyer.

Can Signal help me track my profit margins on exports?

Absolutely. Our platform provides complete transparency on all costs and final sale prices, helping you calculate exact profit margins and make data-driven decisions for future exports.
