Collaborate. Innovate. Partner. Practically.
We run Innovation Labs regularly with the top performing and most influential dealers across the country to dig deep on the biggest challenges they (and you) are facing in the business of running a dealership.
Through an interactive, speaker-driven, round-table format – we work through the identification and refinement of the biggest things keeping dealers from reaching more and better customers, from operating more profitably, from growing and scaling to more rooftops, and from utilizing all the new technology & data available to dealers today – all through the lens of finding, capturing, and servicing more and more happy customers, and ultimately selling more vehicles.
The challenges and opportunities identified within this intense and powerfully collaborative format affect the entire industry, and directly shape our search for technologies and solutions for the industry. Our investment and technology search theses are directly derived from the intelligence and experience of this group, and we’re constantly listening and refining these findings as we take our learnings out across all of our nationwide dealer relationships.
The whole purpose of the Innovation Labs is to answer one question: How can motormindz collaborate with you to innovate and grow your business, practically?
And the answer turns out to be pretty simple: By clearly understanding the biggest challenges you face every day, and bringing you highly-scalable, highly successful solutions to those exact problems.
