Owned = Retail − Purchase − Owned Recon − Interest (per unit). Consigned = (Retail × Commission%) + Consigned Recon Revenue.
Real and measurable lift (more cars) occurs simply by adding the “Consign-It” option to your current single-path model. This positions your dealership to strategically present sellers with dual options — giving them a choice and giving you a higher close rate. Over time, your pipeline and inventory naturally become blended with a mix of owned and consigned cars. Any mix is better than no mix — that’s the lift.
