If your finance department isn’t performing up to the standards you expect, and you’re not getting the desired results, Hoss says there are only six reasons:

  1. Psychological

  2. Presentational

  3. Deal Structure

  4. Salespeople don’t love you

  5. Can’t get your paper bought

  6. Administratively Dysfunctional

Devine is founder and president of Automotive Innovations, Inc., or Ai.
