How Roadrunner Truck Sales Transformed Their Inventory Velocity
From 42 stagnant units to a record-breaking sales quarter using AI-powered digital marketing
The Challenge
Roadrunner Truck Sales had built a solid reputation in the Kansas City metro area over the years. But in early 2024, they faced a growing problem that threatened their bottom line.
Key Pain Points:
- 42 units sitting on the lot for 90+ days with minimal movement
- Using marketing agencies that spent all of their budget for mediocre results
- Sales team spending hours fielding calls from tire-kickers instead of serious buyers
- Competitors with larger marketing budgets were dominating online visibility
- Cash flow pressure mounting with each passing month of stagnant inventory
We were doing everything we thought we should be doing. Auction sites, some Facebook posts, word of mouth. But the leads had dried up, and our best units were just sitting there collecting dust.
