We're still striking where the iron is hot in the culture right now with another well-connected and well-respected figure from the Michigan scene, this time to discuss a controversial topic amongst cultivators of all sizes—the utilization (or underutilization) of beneficial predatory bugs, especially in indoor grow spaces.Blackleaf is joined in the FSOTD studio by Nick Zimmer, founder of Plantsman Group, a company breaking the stigma daily on the beneficial bugs needed to keep your grow in a state of utter homeostasis without having to use hardly any chemical pesticides. And don't worry, the topic of whether you can run a grow chemical and pesticide-free with just beneficial bugs does come up.Our host seriously came with his list of questions this time, certifiably, as no stone is left unturned in terms of topics surrounding ideal cycles for adding beneficial bugs and when to remove them, whether bugs really poop in the buds, best practices so you're not burning your crop in week 5 or 6, the history of the legacy market in Michigan, using bugs with DWC, dealing with aphids, utilizing nematodes to solve fungus gnat issues, the beneficial bug starter pack, and so much more.For those unaware of the credentials surrounding Nick and Plantsman, here are the cliffnotes. Plantsman Group is a Michigan‑based company offering organic pest‑management solutions tailored for

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1109: Today we're digging into Ford's $3B tariff troubles, why commercial EV fleets are booming even as consumer demand cools, and how OpenAI's new “Study Mode” could change the way students learn (without just handing out the answers).Show Notes with links:Ford Motor is bracing for a tougher financial year as U.S. tariffs on vehicles, steel, and aluminum cut deeper than expected. Shares dipped 3% after the automaker raised its tariff cost estimate by half a billion dollars.Q2 results were down $800 million from tariffs, less than GM's $1.1 billion hit.Full-year tariff cost now projected at $3 billion, up from $2.5 billion.Ford sees 80% of U.S. sales from domestic production, cushioning some impact.CFO Sherry House said tariffs on Mexico and Canada stayed higher for longer than expected, with steel and aluminum levies adding to the strain.CEO Jim Farley: “We see there's a lot of upside depending on how the negotiation goes with the administration.”While consumer EV demand has cooled, the commercial EV market is charging forward, with fleet operators driving massive growth. The shift presents new opportunities — and challenges — for dealers, utilities, and policymakers.Commercial EV registrations soared 274% to nearly 25,000, led by delivery vans, utility trucks, and big rigs.Class 2 EVs used for work jumped 69%, while light consumer EVs slipped 2%.Amazon already runs 25,000 Rivian vans, building its own charging network of 32,000+ stations.Dealers remain a critical link, but many fleets report visiting stores where sales teams weren't ready to support EV conversions.Calstart's Jacob Richard said state incentives and programs are key “When looking at that total cost of ownership, you kind of need to have those upfront incentives in the near term.”OpenAI is taking a swing at the “CheatGPT” label with a major update designed to help, not hand out answers. The new “study mode” in ChatGPT aims to guide students through learning rather than doing the work for them.Study Mode is live for all users now, with ChatGPT Edu access coming soon.It uses Socratic questioning and scaffolded responses to build understanding.Offers personalized support and quizzes for deeper learning.Students are calling it “a live, 24/7, all-knowing office hours.”OpenAI is partnering with Stanford to evaluate its real educational impact.“It helped me finally understand a concept I'd struggled with for months,” said one college tester.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1108: Today we're joined by Ben Hadley to talk about Toyota's exports to the US rising in June, and get Ben's thoughts on AI use by dealers and tech partners.Show Notes with links:Despite U.S. tariffs on Japanese auto imports, Toyota kept exports rolling in June, posting record-breaking sales powered by booming hybrid demand and resilient U.S. shipments. The move highlights both consumer appetite and Toyota's ability to shrug off trade turbulence.Toyota's U.S. exports rose 16% in June, totaling 52,745 vehicles.Global sales hit 937,246 vehicles for the month, a 2.7% increase.First-half sales reached a record 5.54 million, with electrified models leading growth.Hybrid sales in North America jumped 38% to 651,000 vehicles.A Toyota spokeswoman credited “strong demand” but declined comment on future tariff impacts.OpenAI is taking a swing at the “CheatGPT” label with a major update designed to help, not hand out answers.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1102: Today, we're unpacking the Detroit 3's tariff turmoil with Japan, exploring how "Auction 2.0" is reshaping used-car sourcing, and tracking Delta's AI-driven pricing turbulence as Senators demand answers. The U.S. automakers GM, Ford, and Stellantis are pushing back against a new trade deal lowering Japanese auto tariffs to 15%, while tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports stay at 25%. The Detroit 3 warn this imbalance threatens U.S. auto jobs and industry.Matt Blunt of the American Automotive Policy Council says any deal that favors Japanese imports over high-U.S.-content North American vehicles is “a bad deal for U.S. industry and auto workers.”President Trump boasts of a “massive deal” with Japan involving $550 billion in investments and tariff cuts, calling it a historic win for U.S. automakers.Details remain murky on whether Japanese cars and parts will get carve-outs from existing tariffs; the deal comes as Trump threatens to hike tariffs on Mexico and Canada.U.S.-Japan talks included Japan's chief trade negotiator meeting Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who says negotiations are “going very well.”Japanese automakers continue investing in U.S. production, with significant commitments from Isuzu and Toyota, aiming to boost local manufacturing despite tariff concerns.According to recent data from Cox Automotive, NADA, and BCG, the traditional used-car auction model is failing franchised dealers due to rising fees, transport costs, and poor condition reports. Dealers are shifting fast to private-party acquisitions (PPA), creating a more local and cost-effective supply.Auction-sourced dealer inventory fell from 27% in 2019 to 18% in 2023, while private-party sourcing grew from 10% to 15%.Buy fees have increased by about 50%, transport costs are up roughly a third, and lane prices remain inflated, squeezing dealer margins.The Manheim Index peaked at 234 in early 2023, but lane conversion rates dropped to 58-64%, below the 70% pre-pandemic norm.NADA projects private-party sales will hit 40% of the used market by 2025, signaling a permanent market shift.According to Sen. Ruben Gallego and other senators, Delta's new AI-based ticket pricing strategy could unfairly hike costs based on individual passenger data. Senators worry this could squeeze consumers financially during tough economic times.Senators are demanding clarity on what data Delta uses and how widely the AI pricing will be implemented, currently 3% but planned for 20% of routes by year-end.Delta says the AI tech streamlines longstanding dynamic pricing and denies using personal data for individualized offers.Critics worry AI could push prices to each consumer's “pain point,” risking predatory pricing amid inflation pressures.Delta preJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Remember when there was uncertainty and anxiety about how tariffs would affect exporting vehicles from Canada to the U.S.? Well, now the tariff era is here, and Tane Jillings says you can relax. On this episode of the Auto Remarketing podcast, recorded from the SYCN Auto Logistics Live Stage during Canada's Used Car Week 2025 in Toronto, the co-founder and president of cross-border vehicle export and remarketing platform Signal Technologies discusses the export landscape for Canadian dealers, the importance of exports for those dealers, and why they should “lean in” to exporting.

Embrace Transparency in Marketplaces: Establish marketplaces, like AutoBandit, provide a risk-free, transparent platform for car dealerships. Future-Proofing with Leasing: Understanding emerging trends and new legislation can reshape dealership strategies and consumer interactions.   In the world of automotive sales, achieving outstanding success demands both innovation and a keen understanding of market dynamics. The Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast provides a treasure trove of insights through candid discussions with industry insiders. The conversations with Sean V. Bradley and automotive experts Rammy Joudeh and Dayne Thornicroft underscore pivotal themes in today's automotive marketplace. By examining the strategies of top sellers, the role of innovative marketplaces, and the reshaping landscape due to new legislation, it becomes clear how these elements synergize to redefine success in car sales. Harnessing the Cody Carter Model: Strategic Success in Car Sales Cody Carter stands as a beacon of success in the automotive industry, consistently achieving remarkable sales numbers. His multifaceted strategy serves as a blueprint for other salespeople aiming to elevate their performance. As Sean V. Bradley notes, "Success leaves clues." Carter's approach is not just about exceptional interpersonal skills but about strategically positioning himself where the customers are: "He lives where the shoppers hang out," states Rammy Joudeh. Carter leverages several key tactics. His utilization of Facebook groups allows him to connect with potential buyers effectively. His expertise in leasing, specifically through self-service pricing platforms such as Least Genius, empowers customers with the information they crave, thus enhancing the buying experience. Moreover, Carter's strategic alliances with auto brokers create a pipeline for consistent, qualified leads. Understanding and implementing these elements can drive significant improvements in a salesperson's business model. Dealers and sales professionals need to adopt a mindset of continuous learning and adaptation, leveraging environments where customers are most active. Redefining Transparency in Car Dealerships with Marketplaces In an era where trust and transparency hold paramount importance, marketplaces like AutoBandit emerge as revolutionary platforms for dealerships. These marketplaces are transforming the car sales landscape by providing risk-free opportunities to connect buyers and dealerships. "We want to perform; if we don't perform, that's on us," says Rammy Joudeh, emphasizing the accountability and confidence embedded in their model. AutoBandit, as highlighted by Dayne Thornicroft, offers a unique approach by integrating transparency into the transaction process. With practices such as running soft credit apps, verifying IDs, and securing deposits upfront, the marketplace minimizes friction between buyer and dealership. This ensures that only qualified buyers engage, enhancing efficiency and customer satisfaction. By shifting focus to such platforms, dealerships can drive customer confidence and improve sales. They provide an avenue to bypass traditional lead generation pitfalls by creating seamless experiences that culminate in qualified, delivery-ready prospects. Navigating the Legislative Landscape: Impacts and Opportunities New legislation, particularly the recent "big beautiful bill," holds the potential to reshape the automotive industry. As Dayne Thornicroft outlines, significant aspects of these legislative changes include adjustments to EV rebates, impacting leasing's attractiveness. "Leasing a hybrid and an ev… their penetration rates… are much, much higher," he states, reflecting the growing importance of understanding these market shifts. The implications for car sales lie in adapting to these changes proactively. By capitalizing on current benefits, such as EV lease incentives before they phase out, dealerships can enhance their value proposition to customers. Such foresight ensures dealerships remain competitive amidst evolving legislative environments. Moreover, the conversation among the podcast's hosts touches on an evolving market ethos—consumers now expect pricing transparency. With the enforcement of initiatives like the Cars Act waning, responsibility falls on dealerships to maintain trust through integrity and openness, ultimately nurturing long-term customer relationships. Synthesizing Market Dynamics for Unparalleled Success The wisdom imparted through conversations on the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast encapsulates key elements essential for domination in the car sales arena. From Cody Carter's strategic mastery to the disruptive innovations introduced by marketplaces like AutoBandit, and through the lens of crucial legislative shifts, a holistic understanding of these dynamics is vital. Dealers and sales professionals are encouraged to analyze and incorporate these insights, strategically aligning themselves with proven practices while remaining flexible to adapt to new challenges and opportunities. In doing so, they not only secure their success but redefine the standards of excellence in the automotive industry, paving the path for a future where knowledge, transparency, and strategic acumen drive unparalleled success.     Resources: AutoBandit: Looking for a better way to move inventory and close more deals?

Since the beginning of this year, all sorts of experts have been talking about tariffs, analyzing the market and predicting what will happen as the auto tariffs take effect. But what about the REAL experts — the dealers who are out there selling cars and working with customers through all of this? During Canada's Used Car Week 2025 in Toronto, Cherokee Media Group associate editor Andrew Friedlander brought three Canadian dealers — Windsor Chrysler general manager Ken Tape, BCS Auto Sales president and GM Lionel Wardrop and Gray Auto Group founder and CEO Jen Gray — together on the Auto Remarketing Podcast to discuss the uncharted waters auto retailers find themselves swimming in right now.

Car buying should be exciting, not a minefield of potential fraud and deception. Yet two alarming lawsuits from Florida reveal the dark side of automotive retail, where unsuspecting customers discovered their "new" vehicles had hidden histories. One buyer found his pristine Land Cruiser had nearly 5,000 miles on the odometer despite being sold as factory-fresh, while another learned her Jeep had previously been titled to a leasing company—information deliberately concealed during the sale.These cautionary tales highlight why thoroughly examining documentation before signing is crucial. As one host suggests, having an attorney review purchase papers might seem excessive, but could save thousands in the long run. While the vast majority of dealerships operate honestly, these instances remind us to verify everything independently, especially when significant investments are involved.Meanwhile, Ford Motor Company has established an unfortunate industry record with 89 recalls issued so far this year—more than the next five manufacturers combined. Their latest recall affects 850,000 vehicles with potential fuel pump failures that could cause dangerous engine stalling. Ford claims to be taking a "more proactive approach" to safety issues, but the sheer volume raises questions about underlying quality control.The automotive financing landscape continues to shift toward concerning territory. A record 19% of new vehicle buyers now commit to monthly payments exceeding $1,000, while 22% have stretched loan terms to 84 months or longer. These extended financing arrangements might make monthly payments more manageable but dramatically increase total ownership costs and potential negative equity situations.Electric vehicle adoption faces headwinds as well, with new EV registrations dropping 5.9% in May—the second consecutive monthly decline despite attractive incentives.

This Day in Legal History: Sedition Act PassedOn this day in legal history, July 14, 1798, the United States Congress passed the Sedition Act, one of the most controversial laws in the nation's early political history. Part of the broader Alien and Sedition Acts, this law made it a crime to publish “any false, scandalous and malicious writing” against the federal government, Congress, or the President with the intent to defame or bring them into disrepute. Ostensibly aimed at quelling foreign influence and internal subversion during the quasi-war with France, the Act was also a clear weapon against domestic political opposition—particularly the Democratic-Republicans led by Thomas Jefferson.Federalist lawmakers, who dominated Congress and the presidency under John Adams, justified the law as necessary for national security. However, it was widely criticized as an assault on First Amendment rights and a means of silencing dissent. The law resulted in the prosecution of several Republican editors and even members of Congress, including Representative Matthew Lyon of Vermont, who was sentenced to four months in jail.The Sedition Act provoked a fierce backlash and spurred Jefferson and James Madison to draft the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions, which introduced the doctrine of nullification—the idea that states could declare federal laws unconstitutional. Public outrage over the Act played a significant role in the Federalists' defeat in the election of 1800 and the subsequent repeal or expiration of most provisions of the Alien and Sedition Acts.The Sedition Act expired on March 3, 1801, the day before Jefferson assumed the presidency. Its legacy remains a cautionary tale about the tension between national security and civil liberties, and it is frequently cited in debates over the limits of free speech in times of political crisis.California tax authorities have flagged over 1,500 high-end vehicles sold by 500 dealerships as likely being registered through Montana LLCs in an attempt to avoid California sales tax and vehicle registration fees. These vehicles—worth more than $300 million collectively—are tied to a long-running strategy used by buyers of luxury assets like exotic cars, yachts, and RVs to exploit Montana's zero percent sales tax and minimal registration costs. Dealers and buyers now face possible penalties, audits, and investigations as California intensifies enforcement.The scheme works like this: a buyer sets up a Montana LLC, purchases and registers the vehicle under that entity, and keeps the car out-of-state on paper—even if it's garaged and driven daily in a state like California. That regulatory fiction is precisely what states are cracking down on. Bloomberg Tax recently highlighted the scale of the problem, noting that more than 600,000 vehicles are likely registered in Montana but used elsewhere, costing states billions annually in uncollected taxes.Montana LLCs have become a go-to workaround for the wealthy looking to sidestep their home-state tax obligations. While technically legal under Montana law, when the vehicle is used in another state without proper registration or tax payment, it becomes a form of tax evasion. States like Illinois and Utah are following California's lead, passing laws to “look through” LLCs and hold in-state beneficial owners accountable.This isn't just a niche tax dodge—it's a broader challenge to state tax enforcement. As wealthier individuals increasingly exploit differences between state tax codes, it's prompting legal reforms and inter-agency cooperation to close loopholes once thought too obscure or dispersed to address. California's latest enforcement push suggests these Montana LLC schemes are no longer flying under the radar—and that other states may soon follow with penalties and structural reforms of their own.California Finds 1,500 Vehicles Linked to Montana Tax SheltersNearly two-thirds of the U.S. Department of Justice's Federal Programs Branch—the unit charged with defending Trump administration policies in court—has resigned or announced plans to leave since Donald Trump's reelection. Out of roughly 110 attorneys, 69 have exited, according to a list reviewed by Reuters. The exodus includes nearly half the section's supervisors and is far greater than typical turnover seen in prior administrations. While the Trump administration maintains its legal actions are within constitutional bounds, current and former DOJ lawyers cite an overwhelming workload and ethical concerns as key drivers of the departures.Many career lawyers reportedly struggled to defend policies they saw as legally dubious or procedurally flawed, including efforts to revoke birthright citizenship and claw back federal funding from universities. Several feared they'd be pressured to make misleading or unethical arguments in court. In some cases, lawyers were expected to defend executive orders with minimal input from the agencies involved. A recent whistleblower complaint even alleged retaliation against a supervisor who refused to make unsupportable claims in immigration cases.Despite the mass departures, the Trump administration continues to rely heavily on the unit as it seeks to expand executive power following favorable Supreme Court rulings. The DOJ has reassigned attorneys from other divisions, brought in over a dozen political appointees, and exempted the unit from the federal hiring freeze to keep up with litigation demands. Critics argue the changes undermine DOJ independence, while supporters claim the administration is merely ensuring its policies get a fair defense in court.Two-thirds of the DOJ unit defending Trump policies in court have quit | ReutersAn $8 billion trial kicks off this week in Delaware where Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and several current and former Facebook leaders are accused by shareholders of knowingly violating a 2012 FTC consent decree aimed at protecting user privacy. The lawsuit stems from the 2018 revelation that Cambridge Analytica accessed data from millions of Facebook users without their consent, ultimately leading to billions in fines and costs for Meta—including a $5 billion penalty from the FTC in 2019. Shareholders, including union pension funds like California's State Teachers' Retirement System, want Zuckerberg and others to reimburse the company, alleging they operated Facebook as a law-breaking enterprise.Defendants in the case include Sheryl Sandberg, Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel, and Reed Hastings. While Meta itself is not a defendant, the case focuses on the board's alleged failure to oversee privacy practices and enforce the 2012 agreement. The plaintiffs must prove what legal experts call the most difficult claim in corporate law: a total failure of oversight by directors. Delaware law gives leeway for poor business decisions—but not illegal ones, even if they're profitable.Zuckerberg is expected to testify, and plaintiffs argue he personally directed deceptive privacy practices and tried to offload stock ahead of the Cambridge Analytica scandal to avoid losses, allegedly netting $1 billion. Defendants deny wrongdoing, claiming the company took privacy seriously by investing in compliance and being deceived by Cambridge Analytica.Meta investors, Zuckerberg to square off at $8 billion trial over alleged privacy violations | Reuters This is a public episode.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1091: Today we're covering how dealers are adapting to the end of EV tax credits, Tesla's push to bring robotaxis to the Bay Area, and the TSA's surprising move to let travelers keep their shoes on.Show Notes with links:With the federal EV tax credits ending September 30, dealers are shifting strategies to keep momentum in a market suddenly missing key incentives.Liza Borches of Carter Myers Automotive says, “We're planning marketing campaigns to help [customers] take advantage while they still can.”Joe Jackson, GSM at Bowman Chevrolet in Clarkston, Mich., said they are learning into leasing, “EVs are a lease-heavy vehicle; I expect the leasing to weather this a little bit better than the purchases,”EV Auto's Alex Lawrence thinks that “adoption [will] increase, but it's going to be a lumpy line.”Liza and CMA are confident about the future,, saying “We're committed to educating customers about all the other benefits. Our job is to be proactive, transparent and ready to help customers navigate this shift.”Tesla is aiming to bring its experimental robotaxi service to the San Francisco Bay Area within the next two months—pending regulatory approval.Elon Musk confirmed expansion plans on X, following a limited pilot in Austin, Texas.The Austin test fleet, with safety monitors onboard, is set to grow its service area this weekend, with an ultimate goal of 1,000 Robotaxis in several months.Tesla faces tight regulation in California, unlike the light-touch environment in Texas.Approval from the California DMV and CPUC is still needed to charge passengers for rides, although initial approvals were given in MarchA major travel headache is officially over: U.S. travelers no longer need to remove their shoes at airport security, thanks to new TSA technology and a successful pilot program.The change is effective immediately nationwide, per Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.Passengers ages 12 to 75 were previously required to remove shoes—a post-9/11 rule spurred by the 2001 “shoe bomber,” but a pilot program showed TSA's equipment could maintain safety standards without requiring shoe removal.“Most Americans will be very excited... it will be a much more streamlined process,” said Noem.TSA PreCheck still offers added perks like skipping laptop and toiletry removal.TSA is exploring more changes, including special lanes for families and service members, to simplify screenings further.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:45 Paul saw Halloween decor at Costco yesterday2:08 Announcements2:50 Dealers React To The End of the EV Tax Credit6:42 A look at Paul and Kyle's bookshelf7:30 Tesla Eyeing Robotaxi In San Fran9:43 TSA No Longer Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Toyota's new “K-flex” line is redefining manufacturing versatility in Georgetown, while Amazon kicks off a four-day Prime Day aimed at cautious consumers and stocked-up sellers.Show Notes with links:The countdown has started. EV tax credits vanish after September 30, 2025, slamming the brakes on what was once a key driver of electric vehicle adoption. Dealers are already seeing signs of a demand surge—and the next 84 days could be chaos.Buyers are rushing to act before the deadline, with analysts predicting a sharp uptick in showroom traffic.Barclays expects a pre-deadline demand spike as shoppers try to capture incentives before they disappear, and dealer inventories of qualifying models may dry up quickly.Researchers Elaine Buckberg and Cassandra Cole estimate a 6-point drop in EV share by 2030 as a resultSlate's highly anticipated sub-$20K electric truck, backed by over 100,000 reservations, has quietly had its price bumped to the "mid-twenties" after losing eligibility for the now-defunct EV tax credit.Check out our panel from ASOTU CON on this topicIn a corner of Georgetown, Kentucky, Toyota is quietly completing one of the boldest manufacturing upgrades in recent memory.

In this riveting episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, hosts Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams invite powerhouse guest Ted Horton. Together, they delve into the transformative potential of generative artificial intelligence in the automotive sales industry.  "What if you could do this in minutes instead of spending a month creating 1,000 videos?" - Ted Horton The conversation demonstrates how AI technology, particularly generative AI, can be seamlessly integrated to promote efficiency, optimize customer interactions, and ultimately drive sales. With a focus on utilizing generative AI for creating personalized video content, this episode decodes how businesses can leverage automated, customized communications to elevate their competitive edge. "People prefer video... Video increases read open rates, increases engagements, increases appointments, and increases shows." - Sean V. Bradley The central theme of this episode revolves around harnessing AI to augment dealership operations, particularly through personalized video messaging. By automating these communications, dealerships can maintain engagement with prospects and customers alike, enhancing deal velocity and building stronger relationships. "Video bridges the gap between information and emotion. It's no longer about pushing products. It's about building relationships." - Sean V.

Tune in to explore the nuances of implementing such technology and hear firsthand success stories from industry leaders. Key Takeaways: ✅ Generative AI is revolutionizing automotive sales by automating and personalizing customer engagement through videos. ✅ Video communication vastly outperforms text and static mediums in customer interactions, which is crucial for dealerships looking to stand out in a crowded marketplace. ✅ Integrating AI with CRMs can create an omnipresent response system that elevates sales and enhances customer satisfaction. ✅ Language barriers are no longer an obstacle, as AI can generate personalized communication in multiple languages efficiently. ✅ Dealer Synergy AI offers a white-glove service that ensures seamless integration and operation of AI tools within existing dealership systems.   About Ted Horton Ted Horton is an accomplished executive specializing in enterprise-level sales with a focus on Fortune 100 and 500 corporations. With over 30 years of experience, Ted has been instrumental in advancing sales strategies and integrating cutting-edge technology within the corporate environment. He is a former executive with BombBomb, and currently holds a senior executive role at Gan AI, an innovative company leading the charge in generative artificial intelligence.     The Future of Automotive Sales: Embracing The Generative AI Revolution Key Takeaways: Generative AI as a Game Changer: Video isn't just the future; it's the standard for engaging the modern car buyer with AI-driven personalized video communications. Automation and Personalization Synergy: Combining AI with CRM systems ensures personalized, consistent follow-ups, hitting the sweet spot of automation and human touch. Unparalleled Competitive Edge: Embracing Generative AI technology in a dealership's arsenal is pivotal in creating an unfair competitive advantage, significantly increasing customer engagement and sales volumes. The automotive industry isn't just turning a corner with technological innovations; it's racing down a highway of revolutionary change. At the forefront of this transformation is Generative AI, a breakthrough poised to redefine how dealerships engage with customers. As highlighted in the lively discussion from the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast, Ted Horton of GAN AI and Sean V. Bradley unveil the profound impact of AI-driven video content on dealership operations, painting a future where AI doesn't replace human effort— it amplifies it. In this comprehensive exploration, we dive deep into how Generative AI is reshaping the automotive sales landscape, emphasizing its strategic integration for maximized value and efficiency. Generative AI: Reimagining Customer Engagement In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, video content is no longer an option but an imperative. "The ability to record these avatars and have them automatically generated real time within seconds…accelerates deal velocity," Ted Horton emphasizes, illustrating the profound capabilities of Generative AI in dealership processes. By leveraging AI to create personalized, dynamic videos instantaneously, dealerships meet customers' growing expectations for immediacy and personalization, creating stronger connections and more profound engagement. Automated AI videos can now incorporate customer-specific data—like name, vehicle type, and more—into tailored communications. The result is not only an uplift in sales but a seismic shift in how relationships are formed and nurtured digitally. The phrase "Video isn't the future. It's the present" underscores the urgency of adopting such technologies. With statistics showing that video content dramatically increases customer engagement and conversion rates, it's evident that AI's role in crafting these interactions is not just advantageous but essential. CRM and AI: A Harmonious Blend for Success Central to the transformative power of Generative AI is its seamless integration with CRM systems. This synergy ensures consistency and personalization in outreach efforts. Horton notes, "Video AI," when combined with CRM automation, is like having an omnipresent BDC (Business Development Center), eliminating human errors and providing constant, tailored customer interactions. Essentially, AI orchestrates a symphony of data and communication, effectively automating what was once a manual and error-prone process. For dealerships, this harmony transcends traditional sales methodologies. As Bradley states, by "launching automation flows for easy each use case," dealerships not only streamline processes but elevate them—ensuring customers receive relevant, personalized content at every touchpoint. This strategic blueprint for AI integration into CRM systems not only enhances the customer experience but dramatically increases sales performance, offering dealerships a distinct and sustainable competitive edge. The Competitive Power of AI Video in Dealerships The extraordinary potential of Generative AI isn't just in automating video creation—it's in redefining competition within the market. Dealers utilizing AI video capabilities are observing tangible improvements in sales, as evidenced by Longo Toyota's case, which highlighted a substantial increase in sales through personalized video strategies. Bradley reinforces this notion by providing a stark warning: "Every minute, every hour, every day that you waste procrastinating… is dollars lost." By harnessing the power of Generative AI, dealerships position themselves as industry leaders—actively investing in technology that not only facilitates sales but builds robust customer relationships. The lexicon of automotive sales is thus expanded, with AI serving as a tool not of replacement, but of enhancement and opportunity. It's a call to action for dealers to pivot from antiquated methodologies towards a future enriched by AI innovation, which promises not just survival, but dominance in the competitive marketplace. Time waits for no one, as echoed in the poetic recitation towards the end, reminding us of the fleeting nature of opportunity. The automotive industry stands on the precipice of a technological renaissance, with Generative AI as the catalyst speeding this evolution. Embracing AI technologies is no longer optional but essential, enabling dealerships to break free from the constraints of traditional processes and unlock unprecedented potential. Dealerships equipped with AI capabilities aren't just adapting to change—they're defining it. As the industry continues its evolutionary journey, those daring to innovate with Generative AI and video technology will indeed lead the pack.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1084: Today we unpack the Senate's plan to fast-track the end of EV tax credits, the global rush to secure rare earth magnet supply, and how small business owners are battling a new wave of AI-powered scams.Show Notes with links:Congress is fast-tracking the elimination of federal EV tax credits, creating waves across the auto retail and manufacturing sectors. A new Senate bill proposes ending both new and used EV credits by September 30, 2025.The Senate plan accelerates the credit phaseout, bypassing both House and prior Senate timelines.Lucid's CEO warns the change “would make it very difficult for new players in the market.”The bill also ends penalties for CAFE standard noncompliance, easing burdens on legacy automakers.Dealers are concerned; roughly 140,000 EVs sit on lots.NADA:“If EV tax credits are going to be repealed, NADA urges Congress to include a reasonable transition period.”China's latest export restrictions have flipped the rare earths market on its head—sending automakers scrambling for alternatives and giving non-China suppliers the spotlight.After Beijing tightened exports of key magnet materials in April, Western buyers are now urgently securing non-Chinese supply chains.Neo Performance Materials in Estonia has seen surging demand at a $10–$30/kg premium for non-China magnets.Korean and European firms are also investing in alternative sources, even paying 15–30% more to ensure supply.Industry insiders warn that premiums too high could kill demand; too low, and new suppliers can't survive.“Customers understand there is a premium… but if that premium gets too big, we're looking at demand destruction,” said Neo CEO Rahim Suleman.Small business owners are facing an alarming new wave of fraud—fueled by generative AI. With tools like ChatGPT and deepfake video tech, scammers can now clone brands, replicate storefronts, and impersonate real people—all with little to no technical skill.One scam targeted knife seller Oishya with a fake giveaway campaign, sending fraudulent offers to 10,000 Instagram followers and duping nearly 100 customers out of shipping fees.A recruiter shared how applicants now use AI avatars to cheat video calls, forcing her to ask for ID and personal questions to confirm they're real.In another case, an engineering firm lost $25 million after an employee was tricked by AI-generated video replicas of his coworkers, including the CFO.“It's like whack-a-mole, but the moles are multiplying,” said one cybersecurity executive.“Doing business online gets more necessary and high risk every year,” said Nima Etemadi of Cake Life Shop. “AI is just part of that.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this special LIVE episode of the Chasing Giants Podcast, recorded at the 2025 Real World Wildlife Products Dealer Summit, Don Higgins takes the stage in front of a packed room of RWWP dealers ready to ask the hard questions. From land management ethics to product techniques, no topic was off limits—and Don didn't hold back in his answers. The conversation gets real as dealers press Don for clarity, challenge him on tough topics, and even sneak in a few light-hearted questions that had the whole room laughing. This behind-the-scenes look at the heart of the RWWP community is a must-watch for serious land managers, deer hunters, and conservationists.
