Bike Dealer Corrals Classic Bikes (& Customers)
|
There are, in my experience, two kinds of dealerships. Whether you’re selling cars, motorcycles, or lawn tractors, two distinct business strategies predominate, with very little middle ground: Trappers & Ranchers. Trappers view customers as wildlife, out roaming the retail wilderness on their own. They are to be captured, subdued and skinned as soon as you…

Saturday Question – How Much Do You Think a Car Dealer Should Make Selling a Car?
|
I have been posting car features for over a year here at Hooniverse, and every time I post a car that is showcased by a dealer, there is the inevitable comment that says something like: “Wow, great car, but its really overpriced”. The term “Stealership” has been tossed about on this and other sites as…

The Edmonton Motor Show was this weekend. While it is difficult to truly express how thrilling it was to walk through a giant auditorium that seemed to be little more than a used car lot filled with 5,000 people, there were, at least, a few highlights.
