Running a successful professional dealership is complex, complicated, and perpetual!
Keeping operations running profitably, securely, and legally can feel like trying to tuck an octopus into bed at night while the tentacles keep flopping all over the place!
Tuck The Octopus will show you how to build a compliance program successfully and flag the important types of risks to consider to safeguard your stores. As regulatory enforcement and lawsuits against dealerships increase, owners are feeling pressure ratchet up, and they understand the increased need for administrative and compliance excellence. Companies appreciate now more than ever a governance, risk, and compliance program is necessary to protect their assets.
With Tuck The Octopus, the author, Thomas P. Kline has created a compendium of essays written and guided by his 30+ years of real world wisdom in retail automotive. Tuck The Octopus will serve as a “primer” to shift and change your thinking as it relates to how to run your dealership.
Here’s a partial list of topics which Kline discusses:
- Risk mitigation and risk management
- Starting a compliance program
- Consumer protection rules and regulations
- Enterprise risk and your exposures
- Corporate governance
- Regulatory authorities and how they function (i.e. FTC, CFPB, Attorneys General)
- New compliance definition and paradigm
- F&I menus
- Astroturfing
- Dealership insurance
- Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA)
- Satisfying customers and concluding their complaints
- Prohibited practices
- Emotional intelligence
- Regulatory fines against dealerships
- Total cost of risk, and
- Compliance monitoring
“Tom’s experience and knowledge from the retail side will guide you not only to be the most compliant operator, but also to do better business, sleep better at night, protect your assets, and help you keep the money you make.”
BRAD MOWRY, Owner
AutoGiants
“Up until I met Tom Kline, I would triage every situation into three categories; the right way, the wrong way, and the way we had always done it. This was time consuming and I still may not have selected the best option. Thanks to Tom’s risk mitigation perspective we only select the proper choice to ensure we are protected, and we have valuable peace of mind with all of our insurance demands. Tom’s ongoing training and relevant advice have both proven to keep us on the best path to guarantee our doors remain open.”
RYAN SODIKOFF, General Manager & President
Steven Automotive

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;

for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
