Big Takeaways From The 800% Auto Club Retreat

This episode of The Dealer Playbook Podcast is unique as Michael Cirillo is on location with Glenn Lundy and dozens of automotive industry professionals at the 800% Elite Automotive Club retreat in Atlanta. With loads of fascinating conversations happening surrounding technology, culture, sales, and so much more, Michael was there to capture the action and bring it to DPB listeners.

In this episode, Michael questions several owner-operators in attendance to help inspire and motivate listeners with ideas about how we can successfully make it through this next phase of growth.

Michael interviews some of the top names in the automotive industry. In a conversation with Damon Lester, soon to be the former president of the National Association of Minority Automobile Dealers (NAMAD), who also recently acquired a dealership despite the doom and gloom that's being shared throughout the industry, Damon says, "There's a massive opportunity if people pay attention to people. People still need transportation to get to and from work. People still need a vehicle to take to go on vacations with. And cars do matter, but people matter more. And so long as we bring back the value of why dealers exist, then we're fine."

There is so much more to digest in this episode - you don't want to miss it!
