NIADA is bringing its popular dealer roundtables to the NIADA Convention and Expo June 23-26 at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
The roundtables will give dealers an opportunity to join other dealers in small groups to discuss industry topics and garner the best ideas and practices. Each roundtable will be led by experienced dealers.
“I’ve participated and led roundtables before, and they are a great way to pick up good information from other dealers,” said Greg Zak, owner of Dixon Motors in Houston, Texas. “Everyone around the table is sharing ideas.”
Dealers will be able to select their preferred topic from 15 40-minute sessions covering a variety of issues facing independent dealers. The roundtable topics include:
- Being open on the weekends
- Use of technology in my dealership
- EV challenges and opportunities
- Capital sources and availability
- Deal structure
- Payment plans that work
- Managing multiple locations
- When and if to add another location
- Identifying fraud in underwriting
- Managing your shop flow
- Controlling reconditioning costs
- Alternate related income streams
- Referral programs that work
- Maximize customer base for repeat business
- Lead-generation ideas
“There’s a variety of topics that cover different aspects of the dealership. You can speak to a lot of people on a variety of issues,” Zak said.
The roundtables are in addition to the lineup of education, including panels with some of the nation’s top dealers and breakout sessions led by dealers and industry experts, focused on helping dealers find solutions to grow their business and increase efficiency.
