Jennifer Murphy - In an effort to alleviate some of the stress caused by trying to understand the compliance issues dealers must contend with, here are 19 laws, rules and regulations summarized (along with potential penalties for breaking them and helpful links to useful information).
Thomas B. Hudson - Joseph Heller’s 1961 World War II novel, “Catch 22,” dealt with the rules that governed how many deadly missions B-25 pilots had to fly before they could go home. I’ll bet Mr. Heller never envisioned that the phrase would be used in connection with the sale of VSI insurance in an auto finance transaction.
David Keller - After reviewing many dealerships’ financial statements over the last six months, it seems the used vehicle department is the king of profits and volume. Most dealers, with new vehicle sales still depressed, are selling more used vehicles than ever. It is more important than ever to manage your vehicle inventories.
Thomas B. Hudson - Life is difficult enough when you at least know what you don’t know. But when you don’t know what you don’t know, life gets downright dangerous.
David Keller - The massive health care legislation, signed into law by President Obama, contains provisions that will affect every employer, but the timing of different pieces of the legislation ranges from items that apply immediately in 2010 to a variety of tax increases that become effective from 2011 to 2018.
Lon Leneve - Employee fraud is a recurrent problem in dealerships. The three factors that cause an employee to commit fraud are discussed, as is the importance of implementing a fraud policy.
Thomas B. Hudson - If you’re running a bait shop, life is pretty simple. You keep the frozen bait frozen, the fresh bait cold and the live bait alive. If you screw it up, you lose some bait.
David Keller - I recently assisted a client with reviewing their claim for insurance due to business interruption. Their facility’s main roof collapsed due to the weight of an excessive ice and snow storm, causing damage to a substantial amount of equipment and making the facility unusable for approximately eight months until it was rebuilt.
Thomas B. Hudson - I excitedly ripped open the “Owner Notification” from an area car dealer who sells the sort of SUV that we use to haul ourselves and the dogs to and from our place in South Carolina. Our old bus is pushing 70,000 miles, so I’m thinking that in this market, maybe I’ll get a real steal.
David Keller - Your service department is one of the busiest departments in your dealership. Service deals with more customers than any other department on a daily, monthly and annual basis. The service department also sees more potential customers than any other department.
