Welcome to a special series where I interview industry leaders LIVE during the NADA Show!

Meet Aleks Keric, General Manager of the Murgado Automotive Group in Chicago! We get into the world of used car strategies and risk management in the automotive industry. In this insightful conversation, Aleks sheds light on how managing risk can be a powerful strategy, often overlooked by operators who fail to see its potential impact.

We explore the challenges of taking in a high volume of trade-ins on a busy day, with a slammed service department, and the risks involved in owning inventory for retail. Alex shares his unique approach to risk management, likening it to monitoring the stock market, and emphasizes the importance of focusing on at-risk cars with low demand to optimize sales.

As a dedicated user of LotLinx, Aleks reveals how AI and machine learning tools have revolutionized his decision-making process, particularly in identifying cars that require more marketing activity. By leveraging LotLinx's VVO tool and collaborating closely with his marketing team, Alex streamlines his operations and accelerates the sales cycle, ultimately saving costs and boosting efficiency.

Discover the innovative strategies Aleks has implemented to adapt his business in 2024, including the implementation of a strict 60-day hard turn policy. Learn how he maximizes vehicle descriptions with compelling language, incorporating ChatGPT and emojis to enhance customer engagement and drive sales.
