I work with snacks at the same dealership. Our dealership is very different from many traditional dealerships, in that we make our money in the service department, that is the main source of profit.
We feel that we may never make a million in service, but we also aren't going to lose a million. We are very clean on new boat inventory and have a great reputation that has allowed us to keep selling boats, not as many as we used to, but we are selling them.
The reason most dealers are going out of business right now is because they live and die by boat sales, if they had the consistent backbone of a service department, many dealers may have weathered the economy better. We feel like this makes it a little bit less of a risk to the company, but has great potential on the 3-5 year horizon and beyond.
