We recently told you about a simple way to start offering pre-owned leases with MUSA Auto Finance. They make pre-owned leases as easy as possible, handling decisions in a process that takes seconds, automatically preparing and processing contracts, and delivering funding within 48 hours. That frees up dealers to enjoy all the benefits pre-owned leasing offers:

Drivers choose subscription-based systems that help keep them connected and safe on the road while adding a layer of security to their vehicle. While vehicle telematics systems are an ideal F&I revenue opportunity, they also open many recurring revenue doors and automate many aspects of vehicle management for dealers.

As loan terms grow longer and car prices rise, it’s important to provide customers as many options as possible to close more deals faster.

Getting more results out of your fixed ops departments starts with getting customers in the door. That’s especially true and important when it comes to service departments.

Whether that’s from savings or revenue generation, boosting your bottom line is what FLADCO has always done. And some of our least flashy deals are among the best ways to do it.

As dealerships focus on making every penny county, it’s a great time to review all kinds of expenses – especially the ones that don’t appear on your balance sheet. Things like costly chargebacks caused by cancellation of F&I products like GAP coverage.

We’ve told you before about how AutoPayPlus can help you close more sales. It’s also an outstanding way to generate more F&I revenue.

As lockdown restrictions get eased and manufacturers offer an array of incentives to generate showroom traffic, it’s a perfect time to look at ways to improve your F&I earnings while offering customers more flexibility.

GAP insurance has long been a great way to provide customers with a valuable service while creating an excellent revenue stream, and as money gets tighter and loans get longer, it’s more important than ever for customers to get GAP protection.

The trouble for dealerships is that most GAP plans have a painful flaw: Early cancellations and the subsequent chargebacks dealers must pay.

Dealerships across the nation have been slammed by the COVID-19 pandemic. This healthcare crisis has altered behavior unlike anything in our lifetimes, as dealerships are deeply challenged by government-ordered lockdowns that are keeping most consumers at home.
