What is the VINCUE 20 Group?

The Acquisition 20 Group is the only dealer program designed exclusively for General Managers, Sales Managers, and Acquisition Managers that believe there are better ways to source high-performing inventory for their dealership.

The group is built on NCM’s industry-leading facilitation capabilities, and supported by the cumulative knowledge, experience, and best practices of  dealers that are finding better ways and better sources to acquire inventory.

The Acquisition 20 Group is governed by an executive committee of members and meets 3 times per year in person.

  • Data-Driven Benchmarking. Members share acquisition metrics such as cost-to-market ratios, inventory turn rates, and gross profit per vehicle. This benchmarking helps identify opportunities for improvement and best practices in sourcing strategies.

  • Vendor Insights. Collaborate on evaluating inventory acquisition tools, including market data platforms, auction services, and trade-in tools, to optimize purchasing decisions.

  • Customized Solutions. Discuss and develop strategies for maintaining optimal inventory mix, managing market fluctuations, and addressing regional demand variances.

  • Peer Accountability. Members set actionable goals and track progress collectively, ensuring each dealership maximizes its inventory acquisition efforts.
