F&I in the Social Media Arena: Is There a Place for it?
Posted on April 19, 2012 at 11:00pm 22 Comments 9 Promotions
Although this subject has been at the center of some very insightful debates recently, my opinion is a strong YES! F&I departments in automotive dealerships should be playing a major role in the overall social media strategic plan, especially on Facebook™ and Twitter™. After all, the financial…

Posted on April 2, 2012 at 12:00pm 20 Comments 8 Promotions
Over the weekend, I was sifting through boxes and boxes of dealership "stuff" in preparation for my presentation at the Automotive Super Conference in June. I came across notes from a "Kick-off" Department Head Meeting I conducted in 1997, in the spirit of Jack Dawson's famous speech in the movie Titanic. I thought this was pretty remarkable as the remake is soon to be released in 3-D. I scanned over my notes and chuckled..."Some things are still so relevant…

Marsh Buice said… - Nancy, thank you for your comments last night; it truly made a mark on me. Funny how we come from all walks of life and we have no idea what each of us have had to battle. You, my friend, are a warrior. I don't know if I could continue on like you have; you are the definition of perserverance. :)

Stephanie Young said… - So, it was the accident of a teenage job that brought you to the industry at 17?

- Great to meet you too, Nancy! Always my pleasure to reach out and make a new friend and thank you as well. My mom finds it funny that I do what I do, since I was the student who did not enjoy writing. LOL My father is just proud that I am carrying on the family tradition and remaining in the automotive industry. So, how did you come to be doing what you do? I see that you have an extensive automotive background, but how did you get started?

You Rock Nancy!~
