The $1 Million Dealership Mistake You're Making Every Month
This episode was sponsored by Cardiff LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a hard truth for car dealers with David Lowe, a 41-year auto industry veteran who led his Volkswagen dealership to the Diamond Pin, the brand's highest honor, awarded to just five U.S. stores a year. He has since trained more than 170 dealerships. David says a dealership selling 100 cars a month is losing $1 million in profit because of untrained salespeople, double discounting, and managers who grade their own teams 27 out of 70. He also explains why "controlling" the customer is dead and what actually works. Dealers blame the market, the economy, and the customers. David says the problem is sitting behind the desk. 🔗 Connect with David Lowe Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidlowepreparetowin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/asc-david-lowe ✅ Additional Resources The Other Half of Success (David's Book): https://a.co/d/0bRhHPEW Automotive Sales Coach: https://www.automotivesalescoach.com The Dealership Playbook: https://www.automotivesalescoach.com/dealership-playbook Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.

The Billionaire Tax Strategy Your CPA Won't Show You
This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Atlas Wealth LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ The rich don't pay taxes the way you do, and this Dropping Bombs episode with Stone Dorough and Andrew Gilbaugh explains why. Their firm gives business owners the same tax attorneys and trust structures billionaire families use, without the $5–7 million overhead. They expose why your CPA isn't allowed to get paid for saving you money, the trust that lets you control everything while owning nothing, and why the "mail the IRS a letter and opt out" crowd ends up shredded in a back room. Plus the exit mistake that quietly burns millions in capital gains. Every dollar you've handed the IRS could have been building generational wealth. The gap between you and the billionaires isn't the money, it's the access. Stop funding someone else's oversized bank account. 🔗 Connect with Stone Dorough Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stonedorough YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StoneDorough TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stone.dorough 🔗 Connect with Andrew Gilbaugh Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wealth_wrangler YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WealthWrangler TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wealthwrangler ✅ Company Atlas Family Offices: https://www.atlasfamilyoffices.com Atlas Wealth Protection System (Training): https://training.atlaswealthus.com/special/ Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.
