About this role

Position Summary

The Digital Inside Sales Representative owns the end-to-end remarketing lifecycle for the companys available equipment inventory — vehicle evaluations, channel selection, listing/content management, title and registration handling, and logistics coordination — across retail, wholesale, and auction channels. The DISR transacts sales directly on inbound inquiries and routes leads as appropriate.

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Cross-Functional Partnership

- Partner with Fleet, Finance, Sales, and Operations to provide market data and recommendations on asset lifecycle timing and disposal strategy.

- Monitor pricing trends, product mix, and market dynamics to optimize disposition outcomes across channels.

Multi-Channel Remarketing

- Develop and expand remarketing strategy across retail, wholesale, and auction channels.

- Establish and grow relationships with auction houses, dealers, brokers, and wholesale buyers.

- Identify new channel opportunities and strengthen existing wholesale/auction relationships.

Inventory Visibility & Digital Merchandising

- Maintain accurate online listings of all available inventory across the company website and third-party marketplaces.

- Keep equipment status (available, pending, sold, on hold) updated in real time.

- Build and syndicate detailed listings — specs, hour-meter data, condition notes, pricing, high-quality photos and video.

- Request and coordinate photos, inspections, and unit evaluations from Operations or the assigned sales rep (particularly for units currently on rent).

- Monitor inventory aging (30/60/90+ days) and flag stale listings for pricing review or renewed marketing push.

Sales Transaction

- Respond to and transact all inbound leads/inquiries directly, negotiating pricing and terms through close, and routing leads as necessary.

- Prepare quotes, paperwork, and coordinate financing, freight/transport costs, and trade details as needed to close.

Logistics, Title & Cross-Team Coordination

- Coordinate logistics for sold units — pickup/delivery scheduling, freight arrangements, and communication with transport or service teams.

- Manage title and registration handling for sold/transferred units.

- Coordinate reconditioning/shop timelines with Operations for trade-ins or units needing service before listing.

- Provide regular status updates to customers, wholesale/auction buyers, and internal sales reps on unit availability, shop/inspection status, and sale progress.

CRM & Reporting

- Maintain clean, accurate CRM records — pipeline, follow-ups, and interaction history for every lead and buyer.

- Track and report on inventory turn, days-to-sale, listing performance, and wholesale/auction volume.

What Success Looks Like

- Inventory is visible, accurate, and current across every channel — internal reps, brokers, auction partners, and online buyers are all working from the same real-time picture.

- Wholesale/auction relationships grow as a reliable channel for moving inventory beyond retail.
