In today’s White Hat Wednesday, we unpack *The Flexibility Advantage in BHPH: How to Win and Keep More Customers.* In a market where every lead counts and every relationship has a long tail, flexibility is an under-utilized opportunity. We’ll break down how adaptable thinking at four key stages—lead qualifying, negotiation, underwriting, and collections/account management—can dramatically improve both customer experience and portfolio performance.

This episode looks at why rigid processes drive good customers away, how smart discretion creates trust deposits you can actually measure, and where teams overlook easy wins simply because “that’s how we’ve always done it.” From giving shoppers room to breathe at the first touch, to negotiating with clarity instead of defensiveness, to underwriting through a long-minded lens, to managing accounts with both firmness and humanity, we’ll show how flexibility becomes the dealer’s signature calling card.

If your store feels stuck in default settings, this is the episode that’ll help you bend in the right places—and grow because of it.
