HerdStat Gives Your Consignment the Advantage
What HerdStat does for your cattle
Tap any benefit to jump to it. Everything below happens when your sale barn markets your consignment with HerdStat.
Why It Matters for You
Your cattle deserve more than a few lines on a sale sheet.
For decades, a consignment was only as good as the handful of lines that fit on a printed sale sheet. Important details got left off. Buyers didn't always see the full story before they bid.
When your sale barn uses HerdStat, your cattle can be supported with detailed health records, feeding information, certifications, photos, videos, AI-generated marketing copy, and a dedicated online listing buyers can access before and during the auction.
The result is a better-informed buyer and a better-marketed consignment.
Better Marketing Creates Better Exposure
More buyers see your cattle, long before sale day.
Instead of a few lines on a sale sheet, your consignment can be promoted with professional, complete information that grabs buyer attention.
- Professional online listings
- High-quality photos and mobile videos
- AI-generated marketing descriptions
- Health records, certifications, and program participation
- Feeding and additional production details
Richer Information Builds Buyer Confidence
The more buyers know, the easier it is to justify stronger bidding.
Instead of simply saying cattle are 'vaccinated,' buyers can see exactly what has been done, and bid with confidence.
- Vaccinations, implants, and weaning status
- Pregnancy status, checks, and guaranteed open status
- Castration, dehorning, and feed program
- Breed and EID information, source verification
- Affidavits and veterinarian certifications
Professional Marketing Copy, Automatically
Not every producer enjoys writing advertisements. HerdStat makes it easy.
Using AI, HerdStat can automatically generate professional marketing descriptions from the information entered during consigning. The Producer or Sale Barn can edit the copy or delete it at any time, even before going public.
- AI writes a polished description from your consignment details
- Producer or Sale barn can fine-tune or replace the copy
- Faster marketing and consistently better presentation
Photos & Videos Help Buyers Buy
Pictures sell. Video sells even better.
Photos and mobile clips are used throughout the marketing process, and HerdStat can even generate promotional video reels ready for social media.
- Easy photo, short video, and mobile clip uploads
- Auto-generated promo reels for Facebook and Instagram
- Sale previews and listing-page video
- Generates buyer interest before sale day, even for in-person auctions
Every Consignment Gets Its Own Listing
One link. Complete information. Professional presentation.
Once accepted by the sale barn, every consignment receives its own online landing page, the central source of information for buyers, shareable anywhere.
- Photos, videos, health information, and certifications
- Marketing description, head count, weight, and breed details
- Feed information, program participation, and supporting documents
- Shareable by producer, sale barn, or buyers, via social, email, or text
Shared in a tap, by the sale barn or by you:
QR Codes Extend the Sale Sheet
Every buyer carries your complete listing in their pocket.
Printed sale sheets have limited space. HerdStat adds QR codes so buyers can instantly access the full online listing instead of just a few printed lines.
- Scan to see photos, videos, and vaccination records
- View DVM certifications and verified health documentation
- Feeding information, certifications, and program participation
- AI marketing copy and supporting documents
- Complete details, right in the buyer's hand
Don't leave it to the sale sheet and auctioneer to promote all your value.
Better Information Tells Your Story
Auctioneers perform best when they have great information.
Instead of reading only weight, breed, and head count, the auctioneer can reference the additional details available through HerdStat, communicating your cattle's story more effectively.
- Richer detail beyond weight, breed, and head count
- Your cattle's full story communicated on the block
- Better information creates stronger buyer confidence
Easier Promotion Before the Auction
The easier it is to share, the more people see your cattle.
The marketing starts long before sale day. Your listing can be shared in a tap, and the more buyers who know your cattle are coming, the stronger the potential bidding competition.
- Shared by the sale barn, you, friends, family, and buyers
- Reach industry contacts with one link
- More exposure means more competitive bidding
Faster Video Consignments
Your cattle can be live before the rep even leaves the ranch.
Video consignments usually mean paperwork and follow-up. HerdStat streamlines the whole process so your cattle begin receiving exposure almost immediately.
- Reps capture photos, record video, and enter health records
- Collect certifications and generate marketing copy on site
- Complete agreements and sign documents electronically
- A full listing can publish before the rep leaves the ranch
Optional Veterinarian Certification
Verified health information increases buyer confidence.
If you already have documentation, simply upload it. If not, HerdStat can contact your veterinarian directly with a secure link to review and certify electronically.
- Upload your own documentation, or let HerdStat reach your vet
- Vet receives a secure link to certify electronically
- Dramatically simplifies the certification process
Optional Producer Accounts
Everything organized in one place, no additional paperwork.
Using HerdStat doesn't require an account. But if you create one, you gain access to a growing history of your consignments.
- Review previous consignments and health records
- Access uploaded documentation, photos, and videos
- Keep certifications and historical consignment information together
