Dealer Toolbox — Technology & Other Tools to Help Get Absorption Under Control

In this classroom session, hear from 4 different solution providers on how their tools can help you keep your aftermarket business singing.

With rising costs, fluctuating equipment sales, and economic uncertainty, dealerships must maximize service and parts revenue while reducing financial risks. Machinery Scope provides a solution built “by dealers, for dealers.”

CodifyWorks provides dealerships with a database of more than 100,000 model specific job codes, and model specific interactive inspection forms that provide labor quotes immediately, and ensures that the quoted amount is the same across store locations.

Modern helps fill a void left by Deere’s purchase of AgriSync. The tool allows dealers to document and photograph any damage on vehicles with time stamps at drop off. If an item is not approved to be fixed our cloud based software stores all existing work orders, approvals and declines to protect the store from being blamed for a part they offered to fix. 

Vi by visorPro is an AI-powered knowledge assistant for equipment dealerships. Vi helps your team service and support your customers by leveraging information from your OEM’s manuals, the work orders in your business system and the knowledge in your technician’s heads.

Video: Is China Buying US Soybeans + USDA Nov 14th Crop Report could be “Game Changing”


After a week of a U.S./China trade truce, markets/trade is skeptical that we have not seen a signed agreement nor heard much from China or seen any details. There are rumors that China is buying soybean futures & not the physical. Trust in Trump?
12 MMT of U.S. soybean purchases by China by year-end is better than 0 but we all need to give it more time and give it a chance to unfold. China did lower the tariffs on Ag and is buying U.S. wheat and sorghum.
U.S. supreme court could rule against Trumps tariffs, but the Trump administration does have a plan B.
U.S. government shutdown is now the longest in history at 38 days.
But despite a U.S. government shutdown we will be getting a USDA November crop report next Friday and it could be “game changing.” If the USDA provides a bullish surprise with lower U.S. corn and soybean yields and ending stocks that are lower than expected both corn and soybean futures will break out above their ceilings at $4.35/bu and $11.35/bu respectively.
The funds continued their selling in live and feeder cattle futures on continued fears that the Trump administration want to lower U.S. beef prices. The fundamentals have not changed, only market psychology has.
Stocks markets continue to worry about a weak U.S. job market, but you can blame ChatGPT for that. In the future, we will have a more efficient, productive and growing economy with a higher unemployment rate until we have more skilled AI workers.
