How to make good margins even in a price war
Margin Control System
Defend Price. Stop Discounting. Regain Gross — Even in a Price War.
Dealer margins are collapsing.
Not because teams don’t try hard — but because pricing discipline breaks first.
Chinese OEM price pressure, incentive overload, and weak approval control have turned discounting into a habit instead of a strategy.
The Margin Control System is a practical, operator-built framework designed to help dealer and OEM leaders re-establish price authority, stop uncontrolled discounting, and recover gross margin fast — without killing volume.
This is not theory.
This is a control system for real-world sales floors.
Who This Is For (and Who It’s Not)
Built for leaders responsible for margin, not motivation:
- Dealer Principals & Owners
- General Managers
- Sales Directors & Sales Managers
- Brand & Regional Performance Leaders
- OEM & Distributor Pricing Teams
❌ Not for entry-level sales training
❌ Not for “inspiration” or generic automotive courses
If you control pricing, approvals, incentives, or sales discipline — this system is for you.
What the Margin Control System Solves
Most margin erosion comes from three failures:
- Price authority is unclear
- Discount approval is emotional, not structured
- Sales managers shield weakness instead of enforcing discipline
This system fixes all three — immediately.
You’ll learn how to:
- Defend price without confrontation
- Replace discounts with structured value
- Enforce non-negotiable price floors
- Stop “exception creep” in approvals
- Align managers, salespeople, and leadership around margin protection
