How this works
A dealer answers a few questions, we match them against each buyer's posted entry rules, and the dealer receives the names that fit. An introduction happens only on the dealer's say-so. We never touch dealership data, and our fee, when there is one, comes from the buyer.
After you send the form
Your answers arrive
ZIP code, a name and email, and the store facts: rooftops, headcount, DMS and CRM, years of RO history, franchised or independent. No files, no records.
We hold them up to posted rules
Every buyer on the buyers page posts some mix of size floor, trading history, location and accepted record types. Your answers are checked against each.
You get names
By email, we name each buyer the store clears and the rule that decided it. When the store clears none, the email names the rule it falls short of.
You choose
Nothing about the dealership reaches a buyer until you answer yes, and then only the buyers you picked. Samples, pricing and contracts run directly between the store and that buyer.
Things we will not do
- Take in, keep, open or pass along dealership data, exports or samples. That is why the form has no upload.
- Put a number on what a buyer might pay, or haggle over it.
- Sign for the dealership, or present ourselves as a buyer, broker, marketplace or AI lab.
- Charge the dealership for anything.
- Share your details before you have read a buyer's name and agreed to it.
Where our money comes from
Several data buyers publish referral schemes: they pay the introducer after a company it brought to them signs. If a store we introduced signs, the buyer may pay us under that scheme. We are an introduction service, and that is our only income from the arrangement.
Who is behind the site
The business behind Sell Dealership Data is Joe Trewick trading as Grub Leads. It has no tie to any DMS or CRM vendor, manufacturer, dealer association or listed buyer. Treat the legal material here as background reading for a conversation with your own counsel.

Questions about the service
Does the dealership pay anything?
Not a cent, whatever happens. Our income comes from buyers: some run posted referral schemes that pay the introducer once the company it introduced signs.
Does the referral fee change what the buyer pays us?
Nothing in the buyers’ posted terms suggests so, but we never see or set your price. Put the question to the buyer, and have counsel review the contract.
Can I contact the buyers myself instead?
Of course. Each row on the buyers page links straight to the buyer. Going direct costs you nothing, and we earn nothing from it.
How do I have my details removed?
Use the address given in the privacy notice. Everything you typed is erased and we email to confirm.
Get a quote
Roughly where the store is, how to reach you and a little about its systems: from that you get back a short list of named buyers whose posted rules the dealership clears, or a straight "none yet".
This form takes a description only. Do not attach or paste exports, screenshots, ROs or customer files; we never need them.
Disclosure: this is an introduction service, paid (when a deal happens) by the company we connect you with.
Received. Here is what we do with it.
- Your headcount, trading years and systems go up against every buyer's posted entry rules and record lists.
- You get an email naming the buyers you clear, with the rule behind each. If the store clears none, the email says which rule it misses.
- A reply of yes is the only thing that triggers an introduction. Contracts are signed between the dealership and the buyer, after your lawyer has read them.
