SOLD OUT. Another full F&I Bootcamp class.

"F&I profit is the difference between winning and losing right now, and these dealers were smart enough to do something about it. There's no shortage of F&I training out there. The difference is most of it comes from trainers who aren't in the box anymore. Our team is in actual stores every day, spinning the paper right alongside the managers we coach. We're not advisors watching from the sidelines. We're practitioners." Cory "3K" Collins, ARC

That's the ARC difference. We don't hand you a course and walk away. We get in your store, work alongside your team, and increase F&I profits by physically demonstrating custom-tailored solutions.

“Nobody treated me any different, so I expect the same from my people.”

Mike has heard this from plenty of leaders and once believed it himself. But not having a coach yourself is no excuse for not coaching the next person. Your store is limited by the capacity of your people.

Everyone wants to talk about what to do with a 90-day-old car. What did you do with it at day 15?

If your first real inventory decision happens at day 90, you don’t have an inventory management system. You have an inventory cleanup system.

What’s your day-15 move? Tell us below. 👇

A $63,000 deal. One mistake on the paperwork. A six-hour drive at midnight to fix it.

Early in his F&I career, Mike made an error on the Truth in Lending disclosure and had no process to catch it. So he knocked on the customer’s door at 7 AM to get it signed again. Failure is a great teacher, but a process is cheaper.

A number tells you what happened. The relationships between your numbers tell you why.

Your front-end gross looks great, but your net is last in the group? That’s the conversation a good 20 Group and a LinuS® composite are built for. Executive Moderator Mike Hirschfield explains.

He put a customer in an S10 and never got his name. Three hours later, it still wasn’t back. 😬

Coming off a record month, Mike Hirschfield got comfortable. He showed up late, rushed the customer and skipped the process. Funny now, not funny then. Every failure like this came back to one thing: not following the process.

What does it cost you when a good salesperson walks out?

Turnover rarely gets its own line on the P&L. It shows up in lost customers, slower deals and a floor that never settles. People stay where the values are clear, the standards apply to everyone, and good work gets noticed.

Ryan Jennings makes the case in Culture Closes the Deal: Why Retention, Values, and Standards Decide Your Dealership's Future.

"What makes a 20 Group successful is being in the right room."

Meet Mike Hirschfield, ARC's newest Executive 20 Group Moderator. Mike has spent 20+ years in the dealership world as a GM, Sales and Finance Director, and multi-rooftop executive, and he's worked with dealers from the lender side at Credit Acceptance and Ally Financial.

When you reach out to Mike, his first goal isn't to put you in a group. It's to understand your business, your team and where you're headed.

Every ARC 20 Group is built on purpose, with dealers who both give and receive value. That's why dealers talk about these groups differently.

On the fence? Let's have a conversation. Tell us your story and we'll help find the right room for you.

Is your next AI tool solving a real problem, or just a "nice" one?

Our new blog is a field guide for dealers evaluating AI vendors. Here's what it covers:

🔹 The 4 types of AI tools (Replace, Augment, Inform, Save Money) and why knowing which one you're buying changes how you judge it
🔹 Why AI will confidently hand you made-up numbers, and why human review isn't optional
🔹 The customer you could lose by swapping a person who was doing the job well for an AI avatar nobody asked for
🔹 Upstream vs. downstream AI: tools that prevent problems vs. tools that just clean up after them
🔹 12 questions to ask any AI vendor before you sign

If you're getting AI pitches in your store right now, read this before your next demo. 👇

A field guide for dealers buying AI: what it actually does, whether a person could do it better, upstream vs. downstream AI, and the questions to ask vendors.
