A 2018 Edmunds Loyalty Report punctuates your point on the need for process and the importance of incremental sales.  Edited for brevity but goes something like this: Consumers are not as brand loyal as they used to be.  Less that 50% account for repeat business. This suggests the other 50% are ripe for conquesting.  This also implies that for every 2 vehicles you sell, you need to close one new customer to maintain current sales level.  CURRENT sales levels!  That's not growth, that's a stagnation. 


Even if the repeat buy percentage is off, this another way to look at the importance of incremental sales and proces.
