THis is NOT a one off audit, this is how it is... BY DESIGN.


FACT: On CG, PRICE SELLS, NOT THE PRODUCT.

  1. If you have a loaded up VIN that's not selling, you either discount the shit out of it, of, have your inventory team list all of the features in great detail.
  2. Knee-cap your competitors.  Have your UCM study Gurus from this P.O.V. and work that audience.  If you sell a lot of F150's, find Trim's that can be loss-leaders.  Place that loss leader on your F150 line and train your sales reps to demo how much better the other F150s are and sell against the loss leader. #Retail101
