VEGAS, BABY!
The Digital Dealer Conference & Expo was a truly memorable event. Held at the stunning new venue, the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, this year was filled with the usual presentation and workshop excitement and networking opportunities. Top that with our view of the Tropicana Hotel & Casino implosion, it became an awe-inspiring moment in Dealer Teamwork history we’ll never forget!
Showcasing The patented MPOP® alongside a plethora of vendors, our team was proud to demonstrate first-hand why more #1 dealers choose Dealer Teamwork as their preferred digital marketing provider. If you missed out on this year’s event, or simply want to relive some of the highlights, we’ve got you covered.
BEHIND THE SCENES
We kicked off the week with an explosion of activity of our own, as the team prepared our newly expanded booth. The thoughtful layout generated excitement and proved functional with even more ways to conduct record-breaking demos and communicate effectively. The enthusiasm and interest from attendees were overwhelming, and we’re excited to continue building on this success.
Special thanks to Tim Bartz (aka FordVideoCarGuy) of Long McArthur Ford for hosting his popular podcast directly from our booth! We appreciate the opportunity to connect with his audience and share our expertise on the latest industry trends. You can catch the full episode HERE.
WOMEN’S NETWORKING EVENT
Olivia Stapleton, Marketing Specialist & Sales Enablement, proudly co-hosted the 2nd Annual Women’s Networking event, sharing her passion for bridging veteran and emerging industry leaders and fostering valuable relationships. This initiative provides a platform for women in automotive to connect, share experiences, and inspire one another.
NEXT GENERATION STRATEGIES FOR DEALERS
Anissa Collins, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, was joined by Olivia Stapleton to deliver an educational presentation in the Leadership and Operational Success curriculum. It was chock-full of important information and eye-opening statistics on the modern car-buyer, and the digital retail experience they expect, titled “Next Generation Strategies for Dealers.” Drawing a large and engaged crowd, here are just a few main discussions from the session. Stay tuned for an in-depth recap of their insights and recommendations.
Key takeaways:
- Streamline processes and automate inventory management to enhance your bottom line
- Determine optimal timing for implementing emerging technologies in response to ever-evolving industry trends
- Decipher the next wave of challenges, people, processes, and technology that are emerging into our industry
THE HACK WAS BACK
…but did not bring home a back-to-back win. Eric Miltsch, Co-Founder & Vice President of Search, AI expert, and 2023 Champion, once again led an amazing team to defend his title at the ever-popular AI Hackathon. Participation is growing and the zero-sales-pitch-zone workshopping format has proven invaluable to industry learning with real-world practice guaranteed to improve dealership capabilities. Thanks to event host, Brent Wees, for pouring his heart and soul into the industry like only a rockstar can. Congrats to the winning team!
TIME FOR TEAM
We indulged in culinary delights at Tom Collichio’s Craftsteak for an unforgettable VIP Dinner followed by a memorable evening at the more intimate Dinner with the CEO, hosted by our own Sean Stapleton at Crush (that may or may not have been followed with a night of line dancing and two-steps!) Connecting with our partners and dealers beyond a conference setting is something we take great pride in, and we are always eager to celebrate our shared success. Thank you to those who were able to join us!
