Your F&I market is tougher than everyone else, and how can you succeed? I mean, it's a good question because I get asked it all the time. It's— and more importantly, I get told that my market's different than everyone else. It's unique and I just can't make it work here and I need to go somewhere else. But you have to pause right there because it's always on you. The onus is on you. You have to be consistent, disciplined, and execute. And ultimately, fundamentals do not have exceptions. You'll keep moving to the next thing, but you're never going to be able to succeed because you keep making exceptions to your fundamentals. So the only way to succeed in F&I is to be precise and show precision and execution so that you can get to where you want to go.
