VINCUE
Cue the Next Leader is a series of conversations designed to share a common journey to help automotive leaders go further, faster. Go beyond what your team is achieving today with valuable lessons from other managers and owners in our industry. “We study the successes of others deeply, so that together we rise.” – Danny Zaslavsky. For more information on VINCUE, go to https://vincue.com/customer-wins/
This episode of Cue the Next Leader is a special exclusive, hosted by VINCUE President Danny Zaslavsky, and joined by Chip Perry, former CEO of Cox Automotive, and his friend and colleague, and former Vice President of Product & Business Development, Steve Greenfield.
These two men are true industry titans, arguably the primary architects of the first major digital transformation in automotive. Together, they created an empire and forever changed the way dealerships appraise, acquire, manage, and sell inventory.
As advisors to VINCUE, they are again looking into the future and helping us define Vehicle Lifecycle Management for the next generation of retail automotive. We were honored to host them during a recent visit where they toured our building, met with our teams, and inspired us keep innovating.
During that visit, they sat down with Danny Zaslavsky to talk about their history in the industry, major achievements, and where they see automotive retail going in a future where AI will dramatically change everything from inventory operations to customer experience.
In this episode of Cue the Next Leader, host Michael Hopkins sits down with Russell Tabone, General Manager and Dealer Operator at CMA’s Hyundai of Lynchburg.
From 19 years in the car wash industry to leading one of the most successful dealerships at Carter Myers Automotive, Russell shares his unconventional journey, and how he went from avoiding car sales to becoming a champion of people-first leadership. Under his guidance, CMA’s Hyundai has opened a state-of-the-art showroom and is nearing completion on a cutting-edge service department expansion.
Russell is a proud NADA Academy graduate and a passionate advocate for CMA’s employee-owned model. He believes that when people love where they work, whether it's employees or customers, great results follow.
He talks openly about:
- Why perfecting the customer experience matters more than inventory
- How VINCUE has helped streamline operations, grow used inventory, and cut costs
- What it means to lead with transparency, trust, and real-time data
- The value of dealer feedback in building better tech
- His personal advice to new salespeople and dealers considering VINCUE
Whether you’re a seasoned leader or just breaking into automotive, Russell’s perspective on culture, process, and purpose is packed with wisdom and heart. As he says: “Love people. Love cars.”
In this exclusive interview, VINCUE President Danny Zaslavsky sits down with Charles McDonald, Marketing and Brand Manager at AutoAlert, to break down the integration between two of the industry’s most powerful platforms.
AutoAlert is the “OG of customer insights,” helping dealers mine their database for equity and lifecycle opportunities. Now, with a direct integration to VINCUE, dealers can instantly access real-time trade values, vehicle history, and lifecycle data, all from a single screen. The result? Smarter inventory decisions, faster deals, and more confident conversations between associates and customers.
“The first way to remove friction is to improve culture, and you do that by removing silos,” Danny explains. “Our mission at VINCUE has been connecting all of these steps in that vehicle lifecycle management process so that appraisal is connected to equity mining. So when a customer is coming in from online, they can pick up where they left off. All of those things used to live in separate places.”
Danny and Charles discuss how this partnership eliminates guesswork, reduces friction, and empowers dealers to stop settling for what’s available and start acquiring what they actually need, based on data, demand, and strategic forecasting.
If you're looking to streamline your tech stack, level up your lifecycle strategy, and win more deals with less wasted time, this interview is for you.
Key takeaways:
- Real-time ACV sync between AutoAlert and VINCUE
- Full visibility into past appraisals, purchases, and sales
- Predictive inventory insights and model-specific planning
- Empowering teams with tools to act confidently, on the spot

Dave Janssen has been part of his family’s dealership group since 1998. What started as a single Chrysler store in McCook, Nebraska has grown into Janssen Auto Group, a seven-rooftop operation across four cities, representing brands like Ford, Honda, RAM, Chevy, and GMC. As owner and operator, Dave has led the group through steady, strategic growth by staying focused on efficiency, discipline, and delivering a great customer experience.
But running multiple rooftops comes with serious challenges: parts shortages that slow down service, inventory imbalances that make it hard to stock the right vehicles, and inconsistent marketing that hurts turn times. On top of it all, Dave needed better visibility into what was happening at each store, and faster access to the data that drives decisions.
That’s where VINCUE came in.
Since implementing VINCUE, Janssen Auto Group has transformed how they operate. Real-time inventory insights, smarter pricing tools, and improved communication between departments have helped them streamline processes and boost profitability. With tools like Service-to-Sales and Description Builder, they’re turning cars faster and presenting listings that actually drive action.
Dave credits their continued growth to consistency, accountability, and the right technology partner. With VINCUE, he’s built a more connected, more efficient, and more competitive dealership group, and they’re just getting started.
Charlie Spradlin, Sales Director at Art Moehn Auto Group, helps run three rooftops across Michigan—two Chevrolet stores and a Honda dealership. He’s been in the car business for just a few years, but he’s already made a big impact. After starting his career in retail with The Buckle, Charlie brought his leadership experience into automotive, quickly rising from salesperson to Sales Director in just 18 months.
Charlie is focused on growth, but not just more, smarter. He’s helped the group go from selling 275 used cars in March of last year to 330 this March. Under his leadership, Art Moehn has embraced a strong used car strategy that combines operational efficiency, culture, and the right tools.
Charlie uses VINCUE to appraise every car, and says he sees an average of $500 more front-end gross compared to a nearby store still using vAuto. He’s also cut recon-to-frontline time from 14 days to 8 by using Rapid Recon, internal photo processes, and VINCUE’s inventory system.
He’s a big believer in sourcing from the service lane, acquiring 10–12% of inventory there today, with a goal of hitting 25%. With 850-1,000 ROs a month, that’s a real opportunity. Charlie also credits VINCUE BOOST and social media presence for helping move inventory faster and with better margins.
Charlie’s all about building strong teams and strong systems, and creating a fun culture while doing it.
In this episode of Cue Next Leader, host Angela Rizzo sits down with Matt Love, Director of Dealer Services at MaxOffer by CarMax, to explore the game-changing integration between VINCUE and MaxOffer.

Now fully integrated with VINCUE, dealers can seamlessly access MaxOffer within their appraisal process, receiving instant, CarMax-backed offers directly on any appraisal or vehicle.
With 19 years in the industry, Matt leads strategy and product enhancements that empower dealers nationwide. He debunks common misconceptions, including the idea that MaxOffer is only for selling to CarMax, and highlights how this collaboration provides dealers with fast, accurate vehicle data to streamline their acquisition process.
Angela and Matt also discuss how this partnership supports VINCUE’s mission to modernize inventory appraisal and management - while aligning with CarMax’s core values of transparency, putting people first, and winning together. Together, they explore how these principles help drive efficiency and confidence for dealers and customers alike.

Scooter Malloy, has been running Alma CDJR dealership since 2013. The dealership is located in the middle of Michigan's lower peninsula, serving a local farming community. Scooter’s wife, Jill is the GM and they sell roughly 50 to 60 vehicles a month. It’s a small community so Scooter and Jill run into customers all of the time.
Scooter is an active participant in his 20 group. Over the past few months he’s referred half a dozen dealers to VINCUE from his 20 group. Scooter reports a unit increase of $700 in his used car grosses since switching to VINCUE.
Scooter appreciates the system's ability to show what other dealers have paid for their vehicles, aiding him in setting metrics. He also praised the system's live data and its ability to track a vehicle's history. Scooter expressed satisfaction with his performance manager, Brian Ball, who has been helpful and responsive. He also mentioned improvements in her business, such as better pricing and improved turn.
Scooter really likes the VINCUE Vehicle Buying Center, which allows him to purchase vehicles from private parties directly from Craig’s list and FaceBook Marketplace. There are no auction or transportation fees when buying from private parties and the vehicles are in much better condition. Scooter appreciates that most about the VBC.
Beaver Toyota was looking to manage inventory effectively to balance acquisition costs, minimize aging stock, and improve sales cycles.
Beaver Toyota faced significant challenges in recent years, with restricted new car inventory forcing them to rely heavily on used car sales. They struggled to acquire the right inventory, effectively engage leads, and streamline operations to maintain profitability.
Jose Lazo, Director Digital Operations for South Dade Auto Group which includes three stores: South Dade Kia of Homestead, South Dade Kia of Miami and South Dade Toyota of Homestead.
Jose Lazo shares how utilizing VINCUE has transformed dealership operations across three stores, particularly in inventory management, turn, time-to-line, and team communication. By utilizing the data, features, and third party integrations in VINCUE the stores have dramatically increased efficiency and improved performance.
Key Results:
Improved Turn from 8x to 23x - The integration of the Group’s processes with VINCUE data and capabilities has improved turn by a staggering 300%.
Improved Time-to-Line to from 10 days to 3.6 days - “Our time-to-line and average days in recon were a minimum of 8-10 days, sometimes as much as 30 days. With VINCUE, we are now seeing just 3.6 days time-to-line average across all three stores.” says Jose Lazo. He credits the improvements to the VINCUE data and the integration with Rapid Recon, which has facilitated better communication across the dealership. Now the BDC, Sales, and Service teams all communicate better together and directly to the customer.
Real-Time Data that Empowers the Team and Improves Communication -The sales and BDC teams use VINCUE to check on vehicle status without needing to call the managers. With the comprehensive data in VINCUE, they can see if a car is in recon, in the body shop, or front-line ready. This visibility has saved time and prevented miscommunication, leading to happier employees and a better customer experience.
Streamlined Appraisal Process - Before the VINCUE integration with MaxOffer, appraisers would have to jump into the MaxOffer platform to wait for an appraisal leading to delays in getting the number. With the integration, all of the data is in VINCUE so sales leaders can make decisions right on the spot without delay. And because the capability is permission-based, only those resources with the authority to put a number on a car have the access to those specific features.
AI-Powered Background Removal Improves Merchandising - The AI background removal feature has been a huge win for this group. This capability in VINCUE saves time and makes the picture taking process effortless. “We used to spend time positioning cars on the lot just right for photos,” says Jose Lazo. “Now we can take any picture, clean it up instantly, saving time and making our inventory look much more professional.”
With Jose Lazo and his team at South Dade embracing VINCUE’s integrations and features it has dramatically enhanced their dealership efficiency, improved time-to-line, increased turn, and ultimately driven more sales while improving team collaboration and customer satisfaction.

Dealerships often struggle with communication and workflow inefficiencies between their fixed and variable operations. Used car managers and service teams operate in silos, leading to delays, missed opportunities, and lost profitability. Without a unified system, recon items, vehicle appraisals, and profitability forecasts often become disjointed, requiring manual updates and significant time investment.
The integration of VINCUE inventory management platform with Rapid Recon addresses these challenges by creating a seamless connection between variable and fixed operations. This integration enables used car managers to access real-time data on recon items, prioritize tasks, and calculate their impact on gross profit—all from within VINCUE.

Rudy Padilla's journey into the car business was serendipitous. As a young husband and father, Rudy needed to support his family while waiting to apply for the California Highway Patrol. He answered a newspaper ad for a local dealership over four decades ago, intending it to be a temporary job. This "temporary" job, however, evolved into a lifelong passion for serving people and working with numbers. Today, Rudy is the Used Car Director at Berkeley Toyota in Berkeley, California, and also pursues a side gig selling real estate in the San Francisco Bay Area.
From an early age, Rudy recognized the importance of building relationships and networking. Early in his career, he earned the nickname DTK, or Dealer Trade King, for his skill in establishing strong connections with other dealers to facilitate car trades.
Rudy's dedication to customer service is unwavering. Whether his clients are buying cars or houses, his focus remains on providing them with the best experience and cultivating lasting relationships.
In November 2023, Rudy attended UNLEASHED, the VINCUE dealer conference in Kansas City. His participation was nearly derailed by a tragedy at his store, but he made it to the conference, where he met three individuals who profoundly influenced his personal and professional life: Glenn Lundy, Danelle Delgado, and Bill Donius. Their impact on Rudy's outlook is profound, and his story is a testament to the power of connection and resilience.

They highlight how dealership employees interact with their customers and their impact on their communities.

At 19 years old, Tianna Mick decided to sell cars. That journey led her on a three-year journey to build her personal brand “T’s Got Your Keys.” She exploded onto the car scene leveraging TikTok to grow her followers to over 20,000. Her last post had 40,000 views and more than 1,500 interactions.
In her new role as Chief Marketing Officer at Dealer Synergy, Tianna spends her time working with dealers to build their personal brand while also educating consumers on good and bad dealership practices.

Tianna’s goal is to help teach other sales reps how to leverage social media to grow their personal brand. Her advice is simple - find your niche, stick to it, and use your favorite platform (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) to amplify your message.

It’s no secret that car dealers have had a reputation problem for years. Kyle Mountsier is on a mission to change that perception. He and his business partner, Paul J. Daly at Automotive State of the Union (ASOTU) are working tirelessly to share the real stories of people who work in dealerships. They are highlighting how dealership employees interact with their customers and the impact they have on their communities.
The first ASOTU documentary, called More Than Cars, just released in May 2023. Of the three stories featured, one story is of a service manager who has worked at the same dealership for 27 years. Her story includes her service to three generations of the same family. She has supported the grandparents, their children and now their grandchildren. She’s considered an extended member of the family who is sometimes relied on for advice and encouragement.
**With over 14 years in the auto industry, Kyle believes his mission is to help people to be seen by others inside and outside of the industry. Sharing their stories is one big way that he can deliver on his mission.

It was the start of the COVID pandemic. Paul J. Daly was brushing his teeth one day when he asked himself, “How can I help the automotive industry during this unprecedented time?” His answer was to connect car people over Zoom to make their good stories louder and to connect progressive dealers to progressive industry partners. Before he finished his dental routine he already knew what he would call this new idea: Automotive State of The Union. Thousands of people showed up to the first live-stream. ASOTU was born.
ASOTU has now grown to provide daily emails, regular webinars and podcasts, and an annual conference to thousands of subscribers. Paul and his business partner, Kyle Mountsier, recently added regional events that capture the content for an ASOTU produced TV show called, “More Than Cars,” featuring inspiring stories showing how people in real car dealerships are changing lives. Paul describes More Than Cars as a mash up between Comedians In Cars getting Coffee + Diners Drive Ins and Dives + Hip Hop soundtrack. This is all designed to change the public perception of car dealerships and provide an on-ramp to draw more people interested in careers in the auto industry.
As an artist and a musician, Paul is excited to work in an industry that values creativity. Episode 1 of More Than Cars is set to premier on May 24, 2023. Users can subscribe via YouTube to watch the first episode, with more episodes to come.

Bill Cole Automall is an independently owned dealership that has grown to include a dozen rooftops spanning across two states. To further maximize efficiency and profits, Bill Cole Automall chose to deploy VINCUE VBC to pull in all third-party leads into one place. Rather than having to have expertise in Autotrader, Car Gurus, Craig’s List and Facebook, their BDC agents can work collectively in VINCUE.
“VINCUE provides one platform, one dashboard to make everything seamless for my agents. My agents focus on understanding how to use VINCUE, not a dozen other systems, and that makes them all more productive.” — Jennifer Taylor, Director of BDC.
With VINCUE, the frontline at Bill Cole Automall has access to up-to-the-moment data in a way that lets them buy, price, and sell more cars at a lower cost.
**“There’s this vAuto philosophy that some dealers buy into that you have to lower prices to sell cars faster. The problem is that by racing to the bottom on price, dealerships may stay busy but can never be profitable. I’ve never bought into that method. As a dealer, you should never lower your price. Instead, spend a little on digital advertising and price the cars based on their value. With VINCUE, you know what the highest authentic value is, which allows you to understand the true value of your inventory and communicate it.” — Jason Cole, Executive Vice President.
