NADA 2025 in New Orleans was one for the books—not just because of the record-breaking snowstorm that made travel an adventure, but because of the incredible connections, deals, and innovations that took center stage.

Brian Hudson’s Learning Lab: Rediscovering Inventory Management

A major highlight of NADA 2025 was our own Brian Hudson, Consulting Director at Dealerslink, who took the stage at the NADA Learning Lab to share expert insights on Rediscovering Inventory Management. 

Brian’s session focused on using data and refining processes to optimize dealership inventory strategies. He broke it down into three core principles: 

    1. Appraising & Reconditioning – How to assess vehicle value accurately and streamline recon workflows. 
    2. Pricing & Merchandising – Best practices for setting competitive retail prices and maximizing visibility. 
    3. Acquisition & Exit Strategies – How to source the right inventory and make smarter wholesale or retail exit decisions.
