About Lotsmith

A good vehicle should not lose a sale to a bad photograph.

Two identical trucks go up the same afternoon. One was shot at a franchise store under lights. The other was shot in a driveway at four in the afternoon with a shadow across the hood. The second one sits, and the reason has nothing to do with the truck. Lotsmith is the room the second seller never had: send the photos you already took, get back the listing the first seller paid a photographer for.

What we believe

Our point of view on marketing an independent lot.

These are not slogans. They are the rules the product is actually built on.

The photograph is the listing

Nobody reads the description until the picture has already done its job. Everything else in a listing is downstream of whether the first image made someone stop, which is why the photographs are the product and the words come second.

Re-photograph it, never redesign it

A buyer who drives out to see the car has to find the car they saw. The paint, the wheels, the trim, and the condition come out the way they went in. We change the light and the room, never the vehicle.

It hands you the work, it does not act for you

Lotsmith has no connection to a marketplace, a website, or an account of yours, and never asks for a password to one. It gives you a folder. Where that folder goes, and whether it goes anywhere, is entirely yours.

One vehicle at a time, priced that way

You pay for a listing, not for a seat, a month, or a lot. Someone selling one truck should not have to sign up for software, and someone selling fifty should pay fifty times what one costs and nothing more.

Come see it

The best way to know us is to watch it work.

Send one real vehicle through. Your own photos, your own driveway, and you judge the result against what you would have posted. That tells you more about us than any about page can, and the first one is free.
