The Street Smarts Academy, powered by the proven expertise of Darrell Steed and Smartwolf Consulting, is revolutionizing dealership operations with a philosophy honed over 15 years of real-world success. From transforming trade-in strategies to empowering dealership teams, the Academy delivers measurable results that drive profitability, customer trust, and employee engagement.
One of the first dealers to adopt the Street Smarts Academy saw a staggering transformation. By implementing the Academy's interactive walk-around process, they reduced their average trade allowance from $1,280 per vehicle to $620—saving $660 per trade. Across 120 trades, this translated into over $75,000 in additional gross potential.
This isn’t just a process—it’s a game-changer. The interactive walk-around removes the "no's" from the conversation, making the outdated silent appraisal irrelevant. Instead, it engages customers in all three phases of vehicle evaluation, building trust and transparency. The result? Higher gross potential and a more positive customer experience. As one dealer put it, "The walk-around alone is worth the price of admission."
The Street Smarts Academy is more than a single process—it’s a comprehensive solution for buying centers, sales teams, and managers. The Academy provides the tools and training to help dealerships acquire vehicles more effectively, improve customer interactions, and build lasting trust.
These strategies are already delivering results for industry leaders, including Knight Automotive Group, Frank Leta Auto Group, and Manly Auto Group, along with 50 other stores over the past four years. Each dealership has seen growth in profitability, engagement, and operational efficiency.
"Investing in your people and processes is the key to long-term profitability. The Street Smarts Academy delivers exactly what dealerships need to thrive in today’s market."
Brian Kramer, a dealership executive and advocate for innovation, added:
"Smartwolf Consulting has cracked the code for modern vehicle acquisition. These strategies don’t just improve the bottom line—they redefine how dealers connect with customers."
Smartwolf Consulting is inviting partners to join this revolution. With one of the most lucrative referral programs in the industry, affiliates earn:
$3,000 for every Academy sold.
An additional $500 for dealers who enroll in the Genius Group support program.
This program offers financial rewards and the opportunity to transform dealership operations nationwide.

Dealers who take advantage of this promotion can secure 12 months of training for the price of 9 months or save significantly on the monthly option.
The Academy equips dealers with cutting-edge strategies that align with market trends, as reported by
Cox Automotive and NADA, which highlight the growing importance of used vehicle operations in dealership profitability. With industry reports consistently showing that effective used car acquisition strategies lead to higher gross profits, there’s never been a better time to invest in your team and processes.
