In this must-listen episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, hosts Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams sit down with Justin Rody, CFO of Kalispell Auto Group, to discuss the critical leadership lessons and strategies that have shaped his journey from Internet Director to C-suite executive. This episode is especially important for anyone in the automotive industry looking to navigate the evolving landscape of dealership operations. "The Internet and phones are the new showroom.” Justin dives into the often-underappreciated roles of Internet and BDC departments, shedding light on their vital contribution to modern sales success. With years of experience under his belt, he offers valuable insights on process adherence, the influence of one-price sales strategies on customer satisfaction, and the innovative community engagement tactics that can drive customer loyalty, like car raffles in partnership with local schools. "If somebody's throwing an Internet manager into a position that hasn't sold a car or been involved in sales, it's not the right thing to do." This episode is packed with actionable advice for dealership leaders and sales teams alike, offering a roadmap to creating a customer-focused, value-driven dealership that thrives in today's competitive market. Don't miss out—this conversation is a game-changer! Key Takeaways: ✅ Having experience in sales and management roles can significantly enhance the effectiveness of Internet and BDC managers. ✅ Cultivating a culture of process adherence is crucial for dealership success and customer satisfaction. ✅ Implementing a one-price sales model can streamline operations and build trust with customers, although it requires a strong value proposition. ✅ Community involvement and charitable initiatives are vital in establishing a dealership's reputation and fostering long-term customer relationships. ✅ Leveraging technology, such as AI for CRM and lead management, can optimize dealership efficiency and profits.   About Justin Rody Justin Rody is the Chief Financial Officer at Kalispell Auto Group in Montana. With a deep-rooted background in automotive sales, he began his career by immersing himself in various roles within dealerships, from internet director to executive positions. His connection with the auto industry dates back to a family legacy, with experiences ranging from washing cars in his grandfather's small car dealership to managing an auto racing track. Justin brings a wealth of knowledge and a strong emphasis on process and customer satisfaction to his current role overseeing Ford, VW, and Toyota dealerships within the group.   The Importance of Internet Sales Savvy: Transforming Automotive Dealership Leadership Key Takeaways Foundation of Experience: For an Internet Director to truly excel, they should have tangible experience in BDC roles, sales, and management. One-Price Dealer Model: Establishing a one-price, no-negotiation dealership fosters a streamlined process and builds trust with consumers. Community Engagement: Successful dealerships integrate community involvement into their business model, benefiting both local organizations and the dealership's reputation.   Rethinking Internet and BDC Management in Dealerships In today's fast-evolving automotive landscape, the role of the Internet Director holds significant weight. Yet, despite its importance, this position often lacks due recognition and appropriate resourcing in many dealerships. According to Justin Rody, a former Internet Director turned CFO, one core issue is placing individuals in these roles who haven't experienced the hustle and nuance of direct car sales. "It's almost like setting the person up for failure," Rody articulates, highlighting that the Internet manager should ideally have sales experience to truly grasp the complexities of the car buying process. Sean V. Bradley, in the podcast, shares a strong sentiment: "How can you tell me as a salesperson or a manager what to do, when to do it, how to do it? And you've never even taken up before." This speaks to the critical need for online and BDC managers to have firsthand sales and customer service exposure. Forcing a person into a managerial role without proper preparation or experience diminishes their potential for success and hampers dealership effectiveness. The overarching benefit here is clear. If Internet directors are equipped with comprehensive industry knowledge and hands-on experience, they can lead with authority, improve Internet sales integration, and foster a harmonious relationship with sales teams. Such a coherent setup not only boosts morale but lays the groundwork for more innovative sales strategies and efficient processes within the dealership.   The One-Price Model: Revolutionizing Consumer Trust and Efficiency The concept of a one-price store disrupts traditional dealership tactics by eliminating the negotiation phase that's been a cornerstone for many. When executed correctly, it not only streamlines the car-buying process but enhances the dealership's transparency and trust. Justin Rody testifies, "We haven't negotiated one car deal since 2007." For his dealership, the firm pricing strategy removes uncertainties and accelerates buying decisions. Bradley underscores how this aligns with efficiency, noting that "anything that elongates the process is counterproductive; taking 10 minutes to cook minute rice is a waste." The one-price model offers peace of mind to both customers and salespeople. By setting clear expectations, it ensures swift transactions and nurtures a reputation of honesty and reliability—an irresistible draw for many buyers. Moreover, this model aligns with broader automotive consumer trends where digital interaction and swift, transparent transactions are increasingly valued. By curtailing the negotiation process, dealerships can dedicate more resources to enhance the customer's buying journey, reinforcing loyalty and repeat business. Community Engagement: Enhancing Reputation and Building Trust Supporting local communities is more than just good public relations for car dealerships; it's a business imperative that boosts brand reputation and customer loyalty. Justin's dealership exemplifies this by engaging deeply with the community, notably through their innovative school car raffle initiative that has raised significant funds annually for local schools. As Rody shared, “That generated somewhere…like 50 to $80,000 of money that goes right to the general fund of the school." This initiative taps into the mutual benefits of a strong community-dealer relationship. For the dealership, it means fostering a positive public image and engendering goodwill among potential customers. It acts as a reciprocal arrangement where the community feels valued and wishes to support a business that shares its success. The concept is simple: when dealerships give back, they create an emotional connection, which is priceless in building long-term customer relationships. Moreover, integrating these acts of service into the dealership's marketing strategy by showcasing on platforms and websites bolsters SEO and web presence, ensuring potential customers notice the dealership for not just their cars but their values. Justin Rody's journey from an Internet Director to CFO within a dealership illustrates the transformative potential of industry experience when placed in strategic roles. His emphasis on transparent practices, streamlined processes, and community involvement paints a clear picture of a sustainable path forward for modern dealerships. By addressing both internal structure and external engagement, dealerships have the opportunity to cultivate enduring success in a competitive automotive market.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser unveiled her proposed $22 billion budget last week. Faced with a tough financial outlook, her spending proposal includes cuts to social safety net programs and some business-friendly tax incentives. There's also a billion dollars to help the Washington Commanders build a new football complex and redevelop the old RFK stadium site and a proposal to repeal a tipped minimum wage increase. Mayor Bowser joined the show to discuss, including how the city is moving away from relying on a federal workforce, and why she's betting big on sports and entertainment.She noted that some 40,000 people in the District could experience a job change because of massive federal cuts, which means shifting the city's economy."If our Chief Financial Officer is right, we think it's up to us to bend the curve in terms of job growth," she said.Mayor Bowser also discussed safety during World Pride, including the closure of Dupont Circle, historically the center of Pride celebrations."As we speak, we're working on an alternative to that site," she said, noting that celebrations beyond one side, with plans for events across all eight wards.  Asked about ongoing preparations for Trump's military parade later this month, she said the event is now a national special security event, which means the federal government will take the lead on security,  logistics, and will handle the upfront costs, similar to inauguration events.She also discussed her proposal for a public-private partnership to build a new D.C. jail, which she says will help speed the construction of a new facility.

Donderdag 22 mei: De Nationale Bank stelt gerust: onze banken en verzekeraars kunnen tegen een stootje, met stevige buffers en genoeg cash.

Asking for help isn’t always easy, but sometimes, it’s the smartest thing you can do, especially when it comes to learning. Amanda Martin learned that firsthand as a parent. When her kids hit middle school, she started looking for academic support — something beyond worksheets and flashcards. She found that the tutoring landscape felt outdated and uninspired. So Amanda decided to build the kind of place she wished existed: Studyville — a modern, membership-based tutoring lounge where students can get expert help with homework, test prep, college admissions and more, all in a space that makes learning feel engaging. Some people join an organization just looking for a job. They’re in and out. Others stay long enough to build a career. And in rare cases, they end up shaping the future of that organization from the top. That’s exactly the story of Alicia Vidrine. She started at the Tiger Athletic Foundation as an intern during her last semester at LSU, and over the years, she climbed the ladder step by step. Today, she’s the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Under Alicia’s leadership, TAF has expanded beyond funding facilities. Today, it helps power scholarships, operations and long-term support for student-athletes, all while adapting to a changing landscape in college sports. Working your way up the ladder in your career is never easy. It doesn’t matter if you can see the rungs of it from the start, or if you have to build your own ladder as you climb it. Both Amanda and Alicia exemplify this journey of growth and perseverance. Alicia climbed her ladder all while adapting to the ever-evolving world of college athletics. And Amanda built hers when looking for a better way to support her kid's education. Both of them saw opportunities to make a difference in their fields and took the bold steps necessary to bring your visions to life.

As General Manager of PayPal's Small Business and Financial Services Group, Michelle Gill is responsible for bringing together the products and services that help small business owners run and grow their business. She is my guest for this episode of the Tearsheet Podcast. Michelle brings deep financial expertise and experience building platforms and tools that help customers manage their finances to her role on PayPal's Senior Leadership Team. Michelle was previously Senior Vice President of Intuit's business money management, payment, and banking service, QuickBooks Money Platform. Prior to Intuit, Michelle successfully integrated and expanded SoFi's lending business as General Manager and Executive Vice President of Consumer Lending and Capital Markets. Drawing on her early career experience as a Managing Director and Partner at Goldman Sachs, Michelle also served as SoFi's Chief Financial Officer before moving into the product leadership role. Before that, Michelle spent a decade leading the U.S. Assets business for global investment firm Sixth Street Partners. Given her career and experiences, Michelle brings a broad view of fintech innovation. She focuses on user-centered solutions. At PayPal, she leads efforts to help entrepreneurs navigate the complicated web of financial tools they often depend on. “The preponderance of [small businesses] use greater than 15 tools to run their business,” she shares. “What they got into business for is the passion… and yet they end up spending more time on things that are not what they love.” Our conversation explores how PayPal is actively trying to reduce that complexity. It does so not by offering more tools, but by making the ones they already use work better together. Gill outlines the strategy behind PayPal's cash flow-based lending model and how it fits within their open ecosystem, whether it's digital lending, embedded finance, or leveraging open banking.

Sponsors on the panel also shared their experiences, noting the difficulty in securing full capacity requirements at times and so the importance of strategic planning and management of the cat bond pipeline.

We typically work with business owners between three and 100 employees. That's usually the range where those businesses don't yet have a full-time, full-scale CFO (Chief Financial Officer). They may have a controller or other roles, but it's one of those areas where owners are left wondering, “How do we track our money if we don't have someone dedicated to it?” Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Thanks for joining us. As always, I wanted to give you something very simple that can help. We call it the ABCs of tracking your money. If you don't happen to have a full-scale CFO in your business, this is especially for you. By the way, at the time of this recording, I'm about to launch my second book called The Chaos Free Contractor. Be on the lookout for it on Amazon! And no, you don't have to be a contractor to read it. The little-known secret is everything we write applies to any business owner with three to 100 employees. So let's dive into this idea of tracking your money with the ABCs. The Level 2 dashboard that we use all the time utilizes the ABCs, so you can actually use your dashboard for this. The ABCs are used to track your finances and better understand your financial health. Let's break it down into some manageable components that you can easily implement. Starting with the A — it represents Accounts. That's what the A stands for. If you have multiple accounts, which we hope you do, it's essential to track those multiple bank account balances. When I say multiple, I mean five, six, seven accounts minimum, and you should track those weekly throughout the year. This practice allows you to observe the flow of cash rather than relying solely on traditional cash flow statements, which are static and hard to track. Doing this with the accounts will help you gain a clear picture of where your money's going and how to utilize it across your various accounts. So that's the A. The B stands for Bookkeeping, another crucial aspect of financial tracking. Each week, review your aging and receivables report to understand what's owed to your business. Simultaneously, examine your outstanding payables, particularly those due in the next 30 days. This dual perspective of what's owed to you and what you owe provides a snapshot of your current cash position. And again, for owners, cash is reality—it's where you live. So, those are the A's (Accounts) and B's (Bookkeeping). What does the C stand for? Either Client or Customer. Without clients, there's no need for accounts or bookkeeping, right? Each week, you'll simply track any client metric that's relevant to your marketing process, both as prospects and as paying clients. When you start to combine those elements—your account balances, your receivables, your payables, and your clients or customers—you create a comprehensive view of your financial status. What this allows you to do is see your past transactions, your present situation, and your future obligations all at once. By implementing these ABCs of tracking, you're creating boundaries for your financial river. Remember, we're not trying to stop the flow, but instead, we're trying to redirect it in ways that benefit your business. That's going to give you a more comprehensive and actionable view of your finances, allowing you to make informed decisions and maintain better control over your future. I know some of this might spark questions for you. Go to mybusinessonpurpose.com/ask and there you'll find a calendar to book time with one of our professional coaches. If you're a business owner with a team of three to 100 employees and you're generating $1 million or more in revenue (if you're a contractor) or $500,000 or more (if you're a service provider), we'd love to invite you to hop on a 20-30 minute call with one of our coaches. You can ask us anything—no strings attached. And if you want to know how we can work with you as a client, just ask and we'll tell you. Visit mybusinessonpurpose.com/ask.   Ready to get clarity?
