the benefit of a dealer vendor mixer and bringing all these parties together we couldn't be where

we're going to be and if anybody gets an opportunity to watch the video where you see Jeff playing the
07:33
role of George Clooney and Andrew playing the role shockingly look at his hair he really pulls off
07:40
Brad Pitt perfectly so it's amazing that's awesome and I tell you I wish I had that on here to show
07:48

07:52
we get that shared out because that sounds like a lot of fun right there I haven't seen that honestly
07:56
I got I can't wait to see it just went out like literally 45 minutes ago maybe an hour ago and
08:01
Andrew put it together and he said it to me yesterday he's like hey what do you think about this I'm

08:26
to be with you guys man there's so much love in this room and everybody Dave right there brother

08:39
the v20 opportunity and how you just went full steam with it you and David both I mean everybody
08:43
who's involved all of it but that was great then this DVM opportunity happened and I love that
08:48
we have all of us in here right now building something special trying to make sure that
08:52
everybody's connecting not just vendor to vendor not it's everyone it's people in automotive coming
08:57
together and having a good time sharing ideas and really getting better that's what we really want
09:02
here and I love that folks I'm going to put up a really quick QR code I want you all to see this
09:06
this is if you want to learn more about the v20 group this is the QR code later I'll put up another
09:11
one I'll make an announcement the QR code will have the DVM for you to be able to sign up learn
09:16
more about it be part of it it's very limited tickets so make sure that you get in there and
09:21
if you're there I promise you you're gonna have a great time if you're not next time
09:34
but awesome I know there is so much that's buzzing with this and we're hearing more and more people
09:39
start to talk about it of course we're doing all that we can to talk about it yesterday
09:42
you've got to hear some awesome quick snippets from different people from the v20 camp that
09:48
have been telling you where you can find them that video is actually out right now Dave right
09:52
now we've actually put out that video from yesterday yeah actually we have all four of them so all
09:57
four groups we we've got different sneak previews anybody who's interested in what's going on quick
10:02
two-minute recaps of all of the things that all the companies across our community are doing and
10:06
there's some pretty exciting stuff so it's a great way to go into nada and get that much more out of
10:10
nada while you're there but we're not just putting together a party either we're also combining our
10:15
forces to do a full v20 booth tell us a little bit more about that guys sure Dave why you take the
10:22
booth you've done so much work getting all the schedule together so what's so fun about it is
10:27
literally every 15 minutes we're going to have a different member talk about something valuable
10:34
for a dealer to use at their dealership so despite the fact that we're going to have 20 plus companies
10:41
up there presenting we've learned from each of them the right way they're not up there to pitch
10:49
they're up there to teach so if you're walking down the highway 2001 west is our booth number
10:55
and what's cool about it is on the big screen we're going to have a couple of benches in the front
11:01
just sit down stand i promise you'll spend 10 minutes learning every time you walk past there
11:09
and then we're going to have three rotations where we're going to actually have what we call
11:13
speed dating and two minute they're going to get up and they're going to talk about what their
11:19
solution is with the expectation that if you've been considering one of their solutions you've
11:25
now met someone that you can go back and form a better relationship with i hate to confess this
11:31
and i'll show that hair this is my 40 plus 40th plus year of going to nada and it's i'm not tired
11:44
i'm excited about it each and every time and i come from an automotive dealer family and when
11:51
you think about the fact that our family started our dealership in 1952 and my dad started taking
11:57
all of us to the nada i've got eight brothers and sisters we used to swarm the floor and my
12:04
dad said any swag any pins we never bought pins back at our dealership we always got them from the
12:10
vendors at the nada just take the time to visit the booths of all of the vendor 20 group members
12:17
most all of them will have some sort of badging to identify their affiliation with the vendor
12:22
20 group but then if you'll come by v20 the v20 booth 2001 west we'll take care of you and we'll
12:29
get you signed up for the party and make sure that you get to participate in the dvm program
12:35
because it's just starting we've been in in norland we're going to be in las vegas where are
12:42
we going next year gentlemen orlando here we go let's go i love it i love it i love it and it's
12:50
so important to do things like this and be so inclusive for all people right and really putting
12:57
together the right people that they can trust it's nice to be together in groups that you can
13:02
look at all the businesses around you and say i trust you all to be able to do this together
13:05
that i can bring my clients here and know that they're going to be in a safe place for it that's
13:10
huge because a lot of times we worry that people are going to take and steal but we don't have to
13:14
do that here this is something that we have all got together we've all agreed we vote people in
13:18
we get to do all these things now there's what four v20 groups right now is that right how phenomenal
13:24
is that they just in such a period of time to see people who vendors and i got to give shout out to
13:30
vendors i and we all knew this was going to happen vendors want to do the right thing and
13:34
vendors want to get better they don't want to rest they want to they want to find ways to do and
13:37
they want to connect and they want to learn from others they want to know what other people are doing
13:41
and how are they doing that and being able to have that resource from people that they can trust
13:46
is massive and i'm so excited that's what's happening right now and there's and that's this
13:51
is just the beginning wait till we see what five more years looks like so it's pretty yeah i will
13:55
ask you all this because i've been a benefit beneficiary of the certified solutionary training
14:03
that you guys provide we know not all the time that you all spend is on just doing podcast
14:08
but you guys are in there rolling up your sleeves and getting things done helping with leadership
14:14
and just overall business operations i just really want to thank you all for your all's
14:20
contribution to the industry well david we honor that that means the world to us that
14:26
means the world to us we appreciate you and of course we appreciate you always being us the
14:31
biggest cheerleader for all people that are trying to do the right thing in the industry
14:34
and also do it in a way just like the environment we're trying to make sure is available at the
14:43
of the events that you are part of hosting making sure happen is make sure that everybody
14:48
can come there knowing they're not going to get pitch slapped right that it's about just getting
14:54
that pitch right outside your head all the time and we're going to a zone where that is what's
14:59
happening everybody is practicing their lines everybody is practicing how they take drugs
15:03
and doing all that other stuff but the pitch slapping salesperson is the one that doesn't
15:10
really know how to build a relationship and a key part of any great relationship is being able
15:14
to educate each other that is a core piece of how we even train people we want them to be educated
15:19
encouraged and empowered but that educational piece is why we're going this is why people
15:24
are going they're not just going to the parties don't get me don't get it twisted everybody
15:28
good though something special about the parties especially for you all that no you get all of
15:33
your education you get to learn you get your cards you get your numbers you get all your
15:37
exchanges and some of your conversation started but some of your real business and relationships
15:42
build at the party at the bar with the drink in the hand with a free space for you to be able to
15:47
laugh with an opportunity for you to let the conversation linger rather than being on on
15:53
on a mission at work basically which is what it's like being on the floor we are working
15:58
we're moving we're trying to make the most of every moment and when we're able to let loose
16:02
and be at a party and have fun being able to learn from each other and make those connections
16:07
that's where the conversations the next week the next month the next business deal goes down
16:12
and you guys are curating something special so we're going to shoot this over to Jeff real quick
16:17
I know that you work to make sure that this is happening brother what's been bubbling up inside
16:23
of your percolator for this particular party man I'll tell you what everything this is this goes
16:30
beyond just party planning right that's that's it's tough I've learned a lot in it right because
16:35
I'm not a party planner right just play one on TV but there's a lot of thought that one into this
16:41
process and it combines the ideas of v20 all but in that party setting right we want to bring
16:47
people that we trust to it to an area and all of these vendors that are part of there there's 23
16:52
of them it seems like a lot but when you look at the entire space of automotive we're only a small
16:56
tick of it right but all of these people are good people people that we trust just like dealers when
17:02
they talk to other dealers what do they say that what do they ask of David probably saw this a lot
17:06
when he was doing all this consulting dealers trust other dealers but vendors trust other vendors
17:11
as well so we wanted to bring that community together but then inside of all of that it's we
17:16
want to appreciate who we all work for and with and those are the dealers but bring them to an area
17:21
where hey man I can just sit back I can relax sit on that drink and you know what if you want to go
17:27
meet some of these other vendors these are the people that I trust in the community these are the
17:31
good people that we like to work with please go out there explore some other areas but you don't
17:36
have to feel like you're being pitch-slap the entire time it's more of a unique relationship and to
17:43
make it even better for our dealers and I don't know if you guys knew this so we even gamified this
17:47
and part of the networking event and here are friends over at zipdeal who are part of v20 obviously
17:53
yep and a sponsor here they made our jackpot journey the jackpot journey is going to be like a
18:00
digital bingo card that you can walk around and talk to any sponsor in these jackets and each one
18:05
of these sponsors will have a unique code to unlock their spot in that bingo card the more that
18:11
dealers talk to vendors if they wish to the more chances they get to win $3,500 in cash now this is
18:18
just an incentive to just say thank you now everybody else can play these games as well
18:22
they're not going to win the $3,500 but there's other ways that we want people to just interact
18:27
and hey we'll give you some cash we're in Vegas go spend it on the blackjack tables go grab a
18:31
really expensive dinner whatever it might be if you win so I think it'll be really fun to just
18:37
watch how people network they'll even be a leaderboard one of the biggest the screens I think
18:42
there's like a hundred inch screen that they have there we'll have the leaderboard so you'll
18:45
get to see how everybody's interacting it'll be super fun that I love it already I think that
18:51
people are going to enjoy that the more that you could bring gamification to anything in my life
18:56
I'm excited I treat everything like that the way I check things off my checklist to me it feels like
19:00
a video game I'm like dude I'm done like Tetris getting everything off with the way
19:03
places it needs to be so I know I'm excited folks I just want a real quick shout out I did
19:07
change the QR code this is for the D this is for the dealer vendor mixer so if you want to sign up
19:12
be part of it make sure you check it out hit this QR code while we all have this up for the rest of
19:16
the show come on let's go I love it it's going to be on Wednesday right Wednesday February the
19:21
fourth I had it right down ticking right now at 5 30 p.m. it's a couple hours right correct it goes
19:26
through 8 30 oh 8 30 so we're talking about three hours let's party this is this is definitely
19:33
something special that you want to make sure to attend I wanted to also point out the viewing
19:40
from that beer park is right across from the Bellagio fountains that's right and now often
19:46
those fountains go off every 30 minutes every 30 minutes 15 I think they do it just depends on
19:53
like this thing yeah yeah there's gonna be incredible yeah it's gonna be fun
20:02
yeah I'm excited I will say the only thing I would complain about is I need these to be
20:08
tear away or zip off because this is one hot jacket and sitting in my warm office I'm sitting
20:17
there saying man I hope it's chilly in Vegas so I was looking at the average temperature
20:23
beginning of February and it could be in the mid 50s we could be nice and in toasty over there and
20:29
feel good outside where other people running inside to get in the warm weather every time I've been
20:34
inside the expo hall in the morning it's always cold yeah right so it always but it starts to warm
20:39
up by the end of the day because people get in there so you tend maybe by the end of the day you
20:43
may not be wanting you might be wrapping it around your waist but you will stay warm and then
20:47
outside to exactly what Jeff just said when you go outside it's going to be cold there's no doubt
20:52
about it and that's something that these jackets it's worth the sweat I'm just saying we earn that
20:59
sweat again right and it's gonna I can't wait to rock mine I can't wait for people to be I can't
21:04
wait to be walking around the expo hall and seeing others and being it's like being in the jeep club
21:08
everybody's gonna wave at each other we're all part of it that's what we wanted to do we wanted
21:14
to have something that stood out right and I remember seeing these jackets you did it I gotta
21:18
do this is it and so every vendor will have their own color as well that's the fun part about it
21:23
Dave's is gray ours is black and green in this tan and then Dave's David Kane has his his tan and
21:28
black v 21 everybody will stand out yeah I will tell you Jeff when I opened up the box my wife goes
21:35
what is that and my wife said where's the class ring I think it's the one that we could bring to
21:50
it the more that we all feel like it's because it is this is an exclusive club my friends that
21:55
not anybody could be part of the v 20 group and it's we want everyone to be part of it but you
22:01
gotta be ready this isn't something that you just show up to but this is something that needs to
22:05
happen I'm excited for it I can't wait to see what's next there's so many things brewing up right now
22:10
and I know that the way that all these things are coming about having dvm having the v 20 booth
22:15
those are just the beginning and when we see this evolution of what happens when vendors get together
22:20
and actually help their clients and actually care about their clients instead of just trying to hold
22:24
on to them because they're mine I don't want no one else touching them instead they're like no
22:27
I need help and that's what our dealers need our dealers need to trust us so much that we
22:32
could say hey talk to these people here yep they'll take care of you but just on that just before I
22:37
forget to thinking about all of us and we've got this qr code that's button up right now
22:41
the tickets are not just going to be at the v 20 booth actually every one of the sponsors that's
22:46
there has our own thanks for bringing it up so I think it's important just to remind everybody
22:49
go to that link dealer vendor mixer dot com look at the sponsors because chances are you work with
22:54
one of these companies we've brought in some of the best companies in the entire industry together
22:58
into v 20 as Jeff was saying earlier these are the best of the best the highest integrity folks
23:02
so if you reach out just say hey I want to secure a ticket there are a limited number of tickets so
23:07
we think there's probably we're probably gonna hit capacity so I would encourage everybody to go in
23:11
and reach out to your partners right now or plan to go to their booths early in the show make sure
23:16
you get those tickets come by and see us of course at our booth but it's just part of the community
23:20
coming together being stronger together and I just didn't want to forget that before we we got
23:24
away from yeah thank you yeah I appreciate you bringing that up that's important and I want to
23:30
ask Andrew a couple questions really quick Andrew I appreciate you brother you're every time I see
23:34
you dude you're just always so kind you ask questions like not just like surface level man
23:38
you're much deeper in that and that's what I really appreciate about you and I see back there you
23:41
played a bass guitar too I play the guitar so we should get together sometime and jam out my friend
23:47
I didn't know that that's pretty cool to see that back there but no just for you
23:51
when it comes to v20 and DVM what about these events what about getting together with these
23:57
vendors is so important to you it's funny how it started in the New Orleans back in like 2020
24:04
obviously it got canceled due to the or 2021 which got canceled because of the pandemic
24:09
then when we brought it up last year thinking on based on all the other after parties we went to
24:15
it's we're just a small company we know New Orleans pretty well but how can we make it big how can
24:21
we make it how can we put value in it to where people are coming and they're going to talk about
24:26
it afterwards and it was about nine months after we were a year after we joined v20 and that whole
24:32
concept of stronger together vendors helping vendors not being a dead end for services they
24:38
don't do but doing being a bridge to another qualified partner vendor partner that can help
24:43
their dealerships excel in what they do so the whole concept of what the party turned into last
24:50
year in New Orleans was very much inspired by what v20 was doing so after that success we got
24:58
together had some talks with Dave and David and hey let's this great opportunity to make this a
25:04
v20 exclusive party for DVM and showcase what this brand means to the whole industry at the biggest
25:11
show of the year so we're excited it's a great chance to not only for dealers to find out what
25:19
other like qualified vendors up there that might not have the same ad budget as some of the bigger
25:23
companies but also vendors and solutionaries like yourself to really get a pulse on the industry
25:30
from the dealer's mouth not some of the news networks reporting on like some of the dealers
25:35
they interviewed you're getting primary one-to-one information of what's going on at their dealership
25:41
so all that feedback is inspiring it's helpful it can create new products and our case with ATE so
25:48
all that's hugely valuable that's what we're looking to do raise the stakes in Vegas and
25:54
make it an event people talk about I love you said raise the stakes in Vegas brother raise the
26:00
stakes in Vegas let's double down right now and go for it and I absolutely think that's the place
26:04
to do it this is the biggest show of the year I said if you're gonna go big this is where you
26:10
go this isn't or you go home you might as well if we're in Vegas I ain't going home I'm here to do
26:14
big things and it's and that's important to do so it's people like you and your company all the
26:20
people in v20 and outside of v20 and all our dealer partners and all the people inside their
26:24
dealerships is why we do this man and seeing the greatness in the what can happen with automotive
26:31
if we keep pushing forward and how people are so worried about all this AI taking over our jobs
26:37
no it's not going to happen not if we keep doing things like this this is what it's about people
26:42
with people this has nothing to do with AI none of this stuff that we're talking about yeah maybe
26:46
some of our companies or most of our companies nowadays have AI involved or some kind of technology
26:50
going on but at the end of the day the people business is what we're in what we do everything
26:56
we do the way we talk the way we treat people the way that they feel when we do this all that matters
27:01
and having like really a collaboration I love that a collaboration with all of us together
27:07
doing something the great collaboration of 2026 is going down and it's just going to keep getting
27:12
bigger and I and my heart explodes when I think of stuff like that I think of my son who's getting
27:16
ready to graduate college and I was talking about this earlier I hope that he gets an automotive
27:21
right but just knowing that we're in good hands and I know there's great people coming up and we
27:26
as leaders now are great leaders out there trying to make some things happen and you're right this
27:30
is maybe a small sector of automotive but to me this is the best sector of automotive of automotive
27:35
is this v20 groups and the people inside who want to do it so congratulations to all of us and to
27:40
all of you all for what you've done inside your businesses and what you're doing together even
27:43
more importantly for everyone else thank you now David thank you you've done an incredible job
27:50
especially in pioneering and putting together the people that want to talk about how to master
27:55
things digitally and we're always looking at leaders inside of the industry like you four
28:00
gentlemen that are trying to find a way to make sure that we constantly are creating the conversations
28:06
that lead to solving bigger problems so ai is an important piece of this but the type of ai we're
28:12
talking about is actual interactions actual conversations with actual people and so for
28:22
these years it's been so important to do that there's nothing that replaces us actually being
28:26
close enough to catch a shush right David you know me all too well buddy you can't have ai unless
28:37
you have ai which is human intelligence and it's what we're all about and leveraging the great minds
28:44

29:09

29:13
feedback very well and we appreciate you and what you're doing to try to make sure that everybody
29:17
is finding a way to have some fun but being included in the conversation because car guys and car
29:23
guys you know how hard it is to corner somebody that you want to ask a question to we all know
29:27
the awkwardness right come on this is at fundamental levels the meet and greet is a such a vital piece
29:34
of the interaction with their customer with the client with somebody that we even work with it's
29:39
so important that we have that conversation but sometimes we stay at wall flowers sometimes we
29:44
stay in our own little clique sometimes we don't have somebody to introduce us their dealers
29:48
vendors we're trying to put you all in the same place together to be able to cultivate that conversation
29:54
ask that question that maybe you've been wondering or find out that thing that's on the horizon that
29:59
you would have never known about had you not have a cup of coffee or a cocktail and a conversation with
30:06
some of these car guys and car guys that are in the industry what you guys are brewing together
30:10
is awesome we're so thankful to be a part of it to grab a microphone and get everybody excited
30:15
