Strategy Notes

The keyword cleanup is already showing results. Same budget, up 12% MoM. Zone Manager will see this — it's a strong story for co-op renewal and potential budget increase.


iX inventory is a real problem. 14 units vs regional avg of 8 means you're over-stocked. EV buyers research heavily online — search is the right channel. Dedicated campaign with EV-specific messaging (charging, range, tax credits) will outperform generic luxury ads.


Aged inventory is costing you floor plan. The 740i and M3 Competition are both priced above market by 5-8%. A 3-5% reduction now is cheaper than another 30 days of holding cost. Make the call today.


Google reviews are compounding. 4.7 stars with active responses is above the Nashville market average. Keep the recognition program going — it costs nothing and directly drives review volume.
