Time kills deals and profit. Despite mass adoption of digital retailing and technology by dealers, it still takes nearly three hours to buy a car. The process is filled with friction, bottlenecks, and back-and-forth interactions. The technology revolution isn’t on your website—it’s in the showroom, where time and money are being left on the table. This session will identify ways to leverage technology in the showroom to optimize decision-making, bridge the trust gap, and speed up the process—all while increasing profitability.
