What we discuss in this episode:
The parts department has been the most overlooked profit center in the dealership. Understaffed, overwhelmed, and hemorrhaging revenue on every unanswered call and every customer put on hold, and nobody built a solution for it. Until Kyle Johnson did.
In this episode, Kyle breaks down what's actually happening inside parts departments across the country, why 60% of customers cite being put on hold as their #1 complaint, and how the industry's first AI platform built specifically for parts is quietly giving early adopters an edge their competitors don't even know exists yet.
If you run fixed ops, manage a parts department, or own a dealership, what Kyle shares here will make you rethink how much revenue has been walking out the door — and what it looks like when you finally stop it.
