Our Meeting Room, or "Forum" as they are sometimes called is a vital part of our overall vision. The Forum allows you, the user, to interact with other site users to build a relationship thru LienLizard.com. One of the most critical parts of any business is Networking, we give you that ability here. This is a service that none of the other online auction sites offer. You can create your own profile, chat with friends, post pictures or jokes, and even watch the funny videos we have posted from time to time.

We feel that talking with someone and reading a little about them in their profile helps to smooth the path for online commerce. Our dream is to create a platform right here for people from all corners of the automotive industry to come together. LienLizard.com is more then just another lien company, we own a towing company as well, therefore we understand the trouble that comes with a yard full of vehicles that just won't sale. With LienLizard.com the market for those junk vehicles suddenly goes global. We have shipping companies waiting to haul vehicles out of your yard and deliver them to the buyers, all you do is collect a check.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
The days of selling vehicles, or anything for that matter, only at a storefront are slowly fading away. Don't get me wrong, there will always be shopping centers, grocery stores, malls, antique shops, etc. etc., but their product offerings will reach much, much further they we are used to. The growth seen in internet use in the past decade is amazing. From 10% in 1995 to more then 75% in 2006. These numbers are the key to success in online marketing and selling. Instead of selling your vehicles to the locals you can now market to the globe. And as younger generations take the reins of the nations automotive industry, they are going to be much more comfortable buying online. LienLizard Auto Auctions gives you the ability to be on the forefront of the huge market that lays untapped. The market between dismantlers, towing companies, and the general public.

 

HAND-HELD INTERNET DEVICES.

The invention of handheld internet devices and their impact on YOUR bottom line:

With handheld devices your potential customers become not only people sitting around their computers, but also individuals on the go. This brings the definition of a public auction a whole new meaning. As long as a bidder is 18 years of age, they can bid, pay for, and have shipped any vehicle on LienLizard.com from anywhere in the world to anywhere in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TWITTER

Other devices like Twitter allow instant communication via the web or text messaging. This is a huge step forward in technology.

The doors opened by "tweets" are numerous. Board meetings suddenly become an open forum where shareholders of the company can participate (real time) with the discussions. Auctions have the ability to advertise to and accept bids from a vast audience. No longer does a phone even need to be web enabled, now text messages fill the gap. This is the internet cloud that we are moving into. Sign up for Twitter by following the link to the left, it is free, fast, and helpful to business.

You can use twitter to send driving directions to your operators cell phones. All you do is type them in on the computer and hit send!! It's that easy.

Once an auction closes an email will be sent to the winning bidder containing contact information for the seller.  If you are the winning bidder you should immediately contact the seller to arrange for payment and delivery of the item.  The seller may also contact you via the contact information you provided upon registration. If you need to have your vehicle shipped click on the "uShip" link on the left side of the screen, or list the vehicle under our "Vehicle and Equipment Shipping" category.

  1.
