"Ours is a particularly market driven business. Your company implemented a C.S.I. driven department and properly prepared our dealership with valuable assistance in business office record keeping, the scheduling of customers in the Service Department, maintaining the proper inventory and mark ups in the Parts Department, and implementing attractive incentive plans for our managers, salespeople, and F & I people. We immediately realized a significant increase in up-front profits, plus a generous increase in our C. S. I.. It is easy to see why Aftermarket by Alado has a 100% success ratio. Using your system will definitely be profitable and save everyone involved many trips to the water cooler to wash down the aspirin to cure the headaches caused by improper implementation of an aftermarket program." Kirk R. Dahlquist

"Dear Frank:
We've installed the Theft Lock on our entire new car inventory (KIA) and our first months success has been outstanding. Our Aftermarket Department has sold over $48,000.00 gross profit in our very first month (not counting what Parts & Service has made). I'd be happy to let anyone know of our success. Please feel free to use me as a reference."

"I first met Frank Stahopoulos in 1988. He set up an aftermarket department at my store that sells an average of 65 new vehicles and 75-80 used vehicles per month. Since 1988, this department has made an average of $20,000 per month. Plus, the parts and service departments have made an additional $5,000 per month off the aftermarket products. Also, we established our own warranties for the chemicals that have made an average of $3,500 per month with no losses. The total of this business has equaled $342,000 per year. Over a 16-year period, this has equaled $5,472, 000." Frank L. Thompson, President.

Blue Springs Ford Sales, Inc. Blue Springs, MO
"In an industry filled with experts and consultants all claiming to bring you the Holy Grail (money and CSI), it's nice to know one who really can. Having done business with your firm since December 1987, has been one of the most positive results in my dealerships by helping increase back-end absorption through greater profits in parts and service."

Our decision to install the Theft Lock on our entire inventory has had a rewarding financial impact, not only in Sales, but in Parts & Service.

"Your company showed us how to pick up the dollars we had left lying on the table for years. It changed my attitude about the potential for aftermarket profit and improved our C.S.I. at the same time. In the 4 years that we have done business with your firm, I have never seen a more organized system that includes every department in the dealership. Our percent is not only up in aftermarket, but in all departments." Jud Careswell, President

Buz Post Motors, Inc. Arlington, TX
"The aftermarket department Customer Relations Delivery Center you created in my dealership has generated well into seven (7) figures net profit in our front end, not counting what it has generated in parts and service. The Aftermarket Department accomplished the difficult task of coordinating an ongoing profit center between New and Used Car sales, finance, service, and the Parts Department. Most of all, your Tracking System, for all dollars generated, is most impressive and nearly flawless. I recommend your services to anyone interested in increasing profits the 'Alado Way." Buz Post, President

Chuck Kramer, GM/VP of Operations, Lawrence Marshall Auto Group, Hempsted, TX
"Dear Frank: I just wanted to let you know how excited we are about being associated with you and your company and your product Theft Lock. Since having signed on we've installed the Theft Lock and sold over 3,500 vehicles in our new/used inventory with a gross profit in seven figures; with the success we are having we will continue our program with the Theft Lock, and you can certainly use our organization as a reference. Again, thanks for your help and support in increasing our gross profit and adding to the success of our dealership."

Mark Coughanour, General Manager, Lawrence Marshall Dealerships, Denison, TX
"We here at Nissan Honda Toyota have been using the Theft Lock program for 5 months now in our dealerships in Denison, Texas. This product has been widely accepted by our customers and staff. Our customers see the benefit of having this security device on their new or pre-owned vehicle, and most save more than the cost of installation in insurance savings from their insurance company. While our customers enjoy the benefits, we enjoy the added profits that Theft Lock has produced for our dealerships. We have seen substantial increases in our Parts and Service Departments because of this product alone. Our profits are not only in Parts and Service, but also on the front end of the sale. We sell an average of 80% on all of our cars sold. We highly recommend this product for any dealership that is looking to increase profits and increase customer satisfaction."
