I try not to post constant sales pitches like many here do. I know you get tired of it. With that said, its the first of the month, how is your used car inventory looking? Are you living out the definition of insanity? Why do I say this? ACV MAX has changed the game of Inventory Management! 1. Better data when appraising, Market data right from VDP's, auto matching so you are pricing vs the same equipped units, DMS sales history so you can see how you perform with that unit. ACV Auctions wholesale data (more accurate than MMR), Recon Alerts based on ACV Auctions inspections, OEM Window Stickers, and of course all the normal stuff everyone does. 2. ClearCar Vehicle Acquisition solution, Included with ACVMAX is the best way to acquire more inventory from the public, build a cobranded website, add it to your VDP/SRP, use it in service, use it for customer walk arounds. Using ACV Auctions data and AI Damage detection, never miss a trade or have to tell the customer to bring it in to get a trade value. 3. Inventory- OEM Options (stop spending time checking boxes for options) AI Description writer with SEO enhanced content that updates with every price change. Integrated photo tool, syndication to your website and any 3rd party. CRM Lead Data from the major CRM companies (ELead and VIN right now, more coming soon) 4. Sales Enablement Tool- Digital Showroom, stop having to be priced the cheapest in your market, when you provide the customer with the info they need and want. Display all options and original MRSP for each option package. Make your staff product experts on every make and model. QR Codes for your Window Stickers. Now think about it, if 80% of the dealers in a market are on the same software today, and everyone is trying to price a few percent less than the next guy, where does that take you? How do you make a profit. Yes you can still make a profit today, but you have to be smarter with what you stock, don't just focus on your market, look at what you have history with!! There is more coming that is even more exciting! Any questions reach out! #usedcars #automotive #cardealership #usedcarmanager

So yes, I work at a local Chick-fil-A Restaurants. As many who get laid off, you initially hesitate to announce your bridge job on LinkedIn because to some recruiters or hiring managers it may come off as lesser than. Previously working in Executive Search, I recall many asking, “Why is he/she working there?” My response was simply, “He/she was laid off and have a household to contribute towards, so instead of relying soley on unemployment, aimlessly applying to jobs (only to receive rejection after rejection) he/she decided to work.” Yes, the current job may not exactly be within their area of specialty, but wouldn’t you rather hire someone who was willing to get up from the mat after receiving an uppercut than staying down for the KO?” After going through the rinse-repeat cycle of applying and interviewing for 3 months, I too got off the mat and decided to join an organization I long admired. For the past 5 months, it’s been “my pleasure” to serve our customers, operations leadership, and my peer Team Members. Over the course of my transition period, I’ve gained a heightened sense of teamwork, collaboration, problem-identification, problem-solving, agility, effective communication, active-listening, customer service, conflict-resolution, relationship-building, business operations, leadership, accountability, and (most importantly) humility. I hope to bring these intangibles and my proven ability as a Talent Acquisition/Early-Career/Employer Branding leader to the Chick-fil-A Corporate Support Center or my next organization. #openforwork | #talentacquisition
