  • This podcast is such a great resource for dealers!

    Each episode is packed with information about social media strategies specifically for dealerships like the customer journey and helpful tips that you can implement at your store immediately. Each guest speaker is very knowledgeable and offers a different perspective of the industry and I think that is so helpful and important. Definitely looking forward to hearing more of this! Great work! 👏🏼

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fixing Fixed Ops: Training, Retention & Profitability with Kyle Newsom
Q: What is the simplest tweak a dealership can make that yields the biggest upside?
The simplest yet most powerful change is fostering consistent communication and collaboration across teams, with leadership involvement and a clear path for implementation rather than just watching videos.
Fixing Fixed Ops: Training, Retention & Profitability with Kyle Newsom
Q: Let me want to ask you a question, Kyle. What inspired you to start this academy and what need did you see?
We saw that traditional OEM training often failed to translate into real-world execution and accountability. Our academy emphasizes tailored, role-based learning, actionable execution, and a strong feedback loop to ensure managers and technicians move together toward concrete results.
Curtis Driver on Why Dealers Fire Vendors in the First 90 Days
Q: What should dealers do to maximize value at major shows like NADA?
Have a plan for meetings and demos, prioritize pain points the dealership wants to address, and go into the show with a precise agenda and follow-up plan.
Curtis Driver on Why Dealers Fire Vendors in the First 90 Days
Q: What helps create a smooth first month after launching a new vendor tool?
A smooth launch hinges on focused training for managers, clear utilization metrics, and visible, proactive updates from the vendor about progress and issues, rather than just training the staff.
Curtis Driver on Why Dealers Fire Vendors in the First 90 Days
Q: Why does onboarding break so often with dealerships and vendors?
Onboarding breaks largely because contract signing is treated as a finish line rather than a starting line, leading to a loss of momentum and a lack of clear, ongoing communication.
