Your First 30 Days Are Killing You: The Real Cause of Margin Compression

Kick off 2026 with a hard reset on used car fundamentals. In this LotTalk Season 3 premiere, hosts Chris Keene and Renaldo Leonard break down why “margin compression” is often a self‑inflicted wound, not just a market reality. They dig into velocity, bucket management, and how to make smarter pricing decisions using real‑world SRP, VDP, and lead data instead of gut feel. You’ll hear cautionary lessons from CarMax, a live case study of a dealer who grew inventory but lost momentum, and a blueprint for partnering with fixed ops so recon doesn’t steal your first 30 days.
