A hit during last year’s BHPH Dealer Forum, the deep-dive workshops are returning for the 2025 event in Nashville, Tennessee.
The three-hour workshops give dealers an opportunity to dig into a subject, ask questions and hold engaging conversations about how to run their businesses.
Three deep-dive workshops will be featured during this year’s Dealer Forum Nov. 9-11 at the Loews Nashville. Registration is now open for the Dealer Forum at niada.com/bhphdealerforum. Early-bird registration runs through Oct. 10, with a chance to save $200 ($495 per person for NIADA dealer members, $695 dealer non-members). Group discounts are available for dealer groups with two or more registrants.
Discounted rooms are $269 per night and are available through Oct. 16 or until the room block sells out.
NIADA Director of Education Brent Carmichael will lead “Building Versatility into your Business Model.” Carmichael, with more than 30 years in the industry, will dive into capital availability, portfolio performance expectations, succession planning and other items to help dealers adapt their businesses to the changing used vehicle market.
Doug Turner, Senior Director Vehicle Acquisitions and Remarketing at America’s Car-Mart, will be back to lead the session, “The Heart of the Matter – Inventory Management.” Turner will guide dealers through the acquisition of vehicles to getting them to the front line.
NIADA 20 Group Moderator John Dismukes will present “All the Moving Parts to Moving More Metal.” Dismukes will give dealers actionable strategies for branding, marketing, lead generation, pricing and closing sales. The session will also cover the use of AI.
The deep-dive workshops are only part of the education at the Dealer Forum. The popular dealer roundtables led by some of the top dealers in the nation return, along with nine breakout sessions led by NIADA moderators, dealers and industry experts.
