“Stop The Bleed!” How Dealers Can End Lot Theft Forever (and Save on Insurance Premiums)
In this episode of the Industry Spotlight, joining host Sam D’Arc are Damian Arras, General Sales Manager at Credit Union Auto Sales, and Barton Harris, Chief Revenue Officer of Titan Secure, to discuss a South African-inspired prevention model that stops vehicle theft before a car ever crosses the curb.
Damien shares how his New Mexico dealership eliminated losses by shifting from reactive GPS tracking to proactive ignition and fuel-cut technology.
Barton explains how this "prevention-first" approach secures inventory in high-crime areas while creating a significant F&I revenue stream with a 90% plus customer penetration rate.
The conversation also highlights how "bait car" technology is helping local law enforcement catch repeat offenders without the danger of high-speed chases.
