This tool gives you the ultimate competitive advantage by elevating your units to the very top of search results, surpassing all regular and traditional Premium listings. Our marketplace has witnessed a remarkable surge in dealer success, all thanks to the extraordinary impact of Premium Select. Premium Select ads have generated 20X more vehicle detail page views than standard ads and 3X more than traditional Premium ads.

2. Expanded Market Reach & Visibility
In the past year, Equipment Trader has consistently attracted an impressive average of 980k monthly visits. Our commitment to dealerships goes beyond just numbers, as we offer personalized marketing solutions and an unmatched array of resources to connect them with a diverse audience of equipment buyers who are actively in the market.
3. Enhanced Equipment Trader’s Email Program with More Lead Follow-Ups
Email has emerged as the undefeated champion in the realm of communication methods for consumers, with our latest surveys from 2023 revealing that 51% of buyers now prefer to use email when communicating with dealers. To help dealers make the most of this trend, we introduced automated price drop emails. And that’s not all – Email Lead Amplifier received a major upgrade for dealers utilizing it, now sending six automated follow-up emails to buyers who submit leads on units, rather than four emails. This enhancement ultimately provides even greater value to dealers, ensuring they receive more value.
4. Unmatched Brand Visibility on Equipment Trader
In 2023, Trader Interactive’s portfolio of brands, including Equipment Trader, achieved impressive results with over 160 individual press pickups, reaching an audience of over 1 Billion unique visitors per month. This incredible success had a positive impact on dealers advertising on Equipment Trader, as it drove a significant increase in traffic to our marketplaces, giving consumers the opportunity to explore the wide range of dealer inventory available on our site.
