@Everybody thats just reading

Come on people. We want some input from ya! Don't be bashful.:)


@Jason Martin

Jason, message me your top 3 competitors. I'll put something together for you.  As far as making profit... there are a bunch of areas you can focus on to maximize a car deal. They are still in biz and doing it. You can too! You just need to tweak your strategy.  Are you on AutoTrader? If so, are you displaying one price or are you showing both. I had to ask my rep to show both of my prices (MSRP and Discounted Price). They put the request in and the following day it was done.  You need to check and see all the websites your inventory is on if you can do that or not and if you can, then do it (display both prices).


@Jeff

Maybe we can get more ppl to chime in. I was at the Kain Automotive workshop last week and I was gonna introduce myself to you but I kept  getting side tracked darn-it.  I came sooooo close to sending in my new car pricing program for the "Best Idea's Contest". I think it would've won. I know your a fan of home brewed setup's and what I have cooked up over the last couple of months is some pretty stout stuff. It nails Brain P's presentation squarely on the head (Dealer VDP's). Also, Thank you for providing such an awesome forum. I don't think a lot of folks realize the time, energy and effort that goes into it.
