Earlier this week, ICA's board traveled out to Chicago to join the ICA staff for an architectural tour on the Chicago River. Getting to take in the views of the city and learning the conspiracies of what might have started the Great Chicago Fire - couldn't do it with a finer group of car washers. Huge thank you to our Board for all that you do for the association and the industry! #CarWash #Chicago

"Superfans are loyal, engaged customers who are going to advocate on your behalf. But here's the thing: you don't buy them. This is not being running the right ad or finding the right people online to target. You create them - one experience at a time." Brittany Hodak, bestselling author of Creating Superfans: How to Turn Your Customers Into Lifelong Advocates, joins CAR WASH the Podcast to discuss how to turn your business from a commodity to a necessity for your customers - and how they won't be able to consider going anywhere else.

License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology is used broadly across industries, from loss mitigation for lenders to recognizing the vehicles of wash members in the car wash space. In 2009, DRN Data entered the loss mitigation space working with lenders, banks, credit unions, and insurance agencies to find cars that needed to be repossessed. Soon they realized that LPR could be used for lead generation in the car wash space as well. Senior Executive Director for DRN DATA, Noel Peña, sat down with Shaneen "Shani" Calvo, Director of Media & Editorial for International Carwash Association (ICA), at The Car Wash Show 2024 in Nashville. In this episode, you’ll hear the story of DRN Data's 180-degree repositioning and entry into the car wash industry. Listen to the episode of CAR WASH the Podcast here: https://lnkd.in/gCHv65cs
