This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Coleman Automotive Group LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a blueprint for building a dealership empire with Kyle Coleman and Ralph Marcuccilli. Kyle, the 20-year automotive veteran who left his GM seat in 2024 to acquire, turn around, and scale from zero to six dealerships in under 20 months, and Ralph, the three-decade banking and fintech leader now backing him as capital allocator through Prime Dealer Equity Fund. They break down the accountability culture behind his 2,000% sales jump, why manufacturers are forced to keep dealers profitable, and the playbook for buying underperforming stores; Ralph reveals how his family banking roots and a fintech exit shaped the investor protections built into their fund, with 40 rooftops as the target. If you've ever wanted a piece of one of America's last true money-printing businesses, this episode shows you exactly how to get in before the door closes. 🔗 Connect with Kyle IG: https://www.instagram.com/leaderofleaders87 Website: https://www.primedealerfund.com/ Watch the full-length video…
