Consistency is the hard part of growth
In a single-site dealer the owner can keep an eye on every quote. Across three or four depots that stops being possible. Each depot ends up with its own copy of the price list, its own habits on discounting and its own quote template, and head office finds out about a bad deal after it is signed.
One catalogue for everyone
Every salesperson in every depot works from the same DigDealer catalogue. When a manufacturer issues a new price list or a model is withdrawn, it is changed once and every device picks it up, including the offline copies on tablets in the field.
One pricing policy, enforced quietly
Markups, minimums and discount limits are set centrally by brand and category. Salespeople see their room to move; cost and margin stay with owners and managers. Exceptions go to a manager for discount approval by push notification, and every decision is logged.
Every quote, in one place
The quote pipeline shows every quote across the group with its salesperson, customer, stage and value, with deposits and orders tracked. Owners can export it all to CSV for board packs or the accountant. And every customer gets the same branded quotation, whichever depot they deal with.
Rolled out depot by depot
Groups usually start with one depot and one brand, prove the workflow, then roll out. Onboarding is managed by the DigDealer team, including building the catalogues. Group dealers often span construction and agricultural franchises; DigDealer handles both in one account.

Multi-depot dealer groups: common questions
Can different staff have different access?
Yes. Owners, managers and sales staff have different roles. Sales staff don't see cost prices or margins.
Do all depots use the same price list?
Yes. There is one catalogue for the dealership. Changes reach every user and device automatically.
Can we see quotes from every salesperson?
Yes. Owners and managers see every quote in the pipeline with its salesperson, stage and value, and can export it to CSV.
How do we roll it out across several sites?
Most groups start with one depot and one brand, then add depots and brands once the workflow is proven. The DigDealer team manages catalogue setup.
