Facebook Marketplace for Car Dealerships: Distribute.

Distribute is the inventory-marketing module of ASOS (Automotive Sales Operating System), powered by Quantum Connect AI. It auto-posts inventory from your IMS feed to each rep's personal Facebook Marketplace, up to 10 listings per rep per day, refreshed continuously, with FTC and 50-state compliance validated before every post, so your lot shows up where buyers already shop without anyone hunting for cars to list.

50-STATE ADVERTISING COMPLIANCE

We take FTC compliance seriously: every listing, every rep, every state.

Distribute is built for dealers and individual sales reps posting to Facebook Marketplace and digital syndication channels. Every post runs through federal FTC baseline checks plus state-specific rules before it goes live. Digital listings are permanent legal records. We treat them that way.

Critical FTC update (March 2026)

On March 13, 2026, the FTC sent warning letters to 97 auto dealership groups. The CARS Rule was vacated (Jan 2025), but FTC Act Section 5 deceptive-practices enforcement is fully in force. All-in pricing is now the federal enforcement standard. Digital listings are permanent legal records.

FEDERAL BASELINE · ALL 50 STATES

Required in every listing. No exceptions..

  • Accurate year, make, model, trim, mileage, VIN, and availability
  • All-in advertised price, mandatory fees included (taxes and title excluded only)
  • Advertised price must match actual price charged to the consumer
  • Conditional rebates must disclose eligibility requirements
  • Finance terms (if advertised): APR, term, monthly payment, down payment, total of payments
  • Dealer identity, dealership name on every listing
  • Add-on products/fees must not be hidden or added post-listing
  • No bait-and-switch, advertised vehicle available at advertised price

PROHIBITED NATIONWIDE

Auto-blocked before publish. Titles and descriptions scanned for trigger phrases.

  • · Guaranteed Approval / Everyone Approved
  • · No Credit Check
  • · $0 Down (without full financing terms disclosed)
  • · Lowest Price Guaranteed (without qualification)
  • · Free (without conditions clearly stated)
  • · Fake or inflated MSRP discounts
  • · Pricing that requires dealer financing to achieve
  • · Hidden doc fees, processing fees, or add-ons not in advertised price

BUILT INTO DISTRIBUTE

Pre-listing validation

  • All-in price validation fires before publish, mandatory fees confirmed included
  • VIN verified and mapped to correct year/make/model/mileage
  • Dealer name and license number present in listing
  • No prohibited trigger phrases detected in title or description
  • Conditional rebates: eligibility conditions disclosed if price includes rebate
  • Finance terms: if payment is advertised, APR/term/down payment present

State-specific triggers

  • CA listings: VIN required, add-ons labeled optional, CA CARS Act disclosures by Oct 1, 2026
  • MA listings: Total Price = all-in price (mandatory since Sept 2, 2025)
  • CT listings: New 2026 fee disclosure requirements applied
  • TX listings: Internet price locked to in-store price at time of inquiry
  • NY/NJ listings: All fees itemized, finance disclosures complete
  • FL listings: Doc fee included in advertised price or separately disclosed

Audit trail

  • Every listing timestamped and version-stored at time of publication
  • Price at time of posting logged and locked
  • Any edits to live listings trigger a new compliance validation
  • Listing history retained for minimum 24 months

Prohibited content auto-block

  • System flags and blocks prohibited trigger phrases before posting
  • Duplicate VIN detection across rep accounts active
  • Templated description variation enforced, no identical listing text across accounts
  • Photo ordering randomized per listing to reduce coordination signals

STATE-BY-STATE REQUIREMENTS

Federal rules apply everywhere. Each state below adds minimum disclosures on top, for dealership rooftops and individual rep accounts alike.

This reference framework is for operational guidance only and does not constitute legal advice. State regulations change frequently. Dealerships in high-risk states should engage qualified automotive advertising counsel. Last updated: May 2026.

FOR THE REP

Wake up to a full Marketplace funnel.

  • Ten listings per day already posted from your phone, hands-off.
  • Every Marketplace lead pre-qualified by the AI before you read it.
  • Your name on every post. Buyers see a real seller, not a corporate page.
  • Booked appointments delivered to your calendar, not an inbox you have to mine.

FOR THE DEALER

Compounding marketplace pipeline, every rooftop.

  • 280% average lift in Marketplace leads inside 45 days.
  • $600K–$1.2M of recovered annual pipeline per rooftop.
  • No more 'who posted this listing' chaos. Full audit trail.
  • Inventory, photos, pricing pulled from your IMS feed and refreshed continuously.

PROOF · CALIFORNIA

From 30 to 142 Marketplace leads/month, same inventory, same market.

A six-rep franchised store in Northern California turned on Distribute in week one. Within 45 days they were averaging 142 inbound Marketplace leads per month, up from a 30-lead baseline. The only change: ASOS Distribute on top of their existing CDK + VinSolutions stack.

PROOF · TEXAS

Cut cost per lead 60% across a dealer group.

A four-rooftop dealer group in Texas replaced their Marketplace agency and consolidated to ASOS. Cost per lead dropped 60% in the first billing cycle while doubling Marketplace appointment volume. The agency was selling syndication; ASOS sells distribution where buyers actually shop.
