Every driver wants to stand above their rivals, hear their national anthem, life the trophy and spray the champagne on the Formula 1 podium. It's a moment of celebration which takes careful planning and is governed by strict rules... like a wedding... in race suits.We've put your podium questions the two people who work together to make it all happen: Linda Boudabous – Master of Ceremonies and Special Operations Co-ordinator at the FIA, and Katalin Bukor – Head of Ceremonies & Protocol at Formula 1.

1417. Podium Podcast cumple diez años desde aquella presentación oficial del 8 de junio de 2016 y me apetecía recuperar ese momento dentro de Arqueología Podcastera. No solamente porque fue un lanzamiento importante para el podcasting en español, sino porque yo estuve allí y guardo recuerdos bastante concretos de una tarde que, vista con perspectiva, también forma parte de mi propia relación con este medio.Podium Podcast: así te contamos la presentación del sitio global de podcasts en españolhttps://cadenaser.com/ser/2016/06/07/sociedad/1465312934_601004.htmlPor aquel entonces yo trabajaba como técnico informático en Europa Press y mi profesión todavía no tenía nada que ver con producir podcasts. Tuve que pedir la tarde libre para acercarme al Círculo de Bellas Artes de Madrid y pude asistir gracias a una invitación que me cedió Sunne, haciendo de corresponsal para Nación Podcast. Hoy estoy bastante acostumbrado a presentaciones de proyectos en hoteles, teatros o salas preparadas para este tipo de actos, pero en 2016 aquello me parecía un acontecimiento enorme.Recuerdo especialmente el calor de aquella tarde, el alivio al entrar en el edificio y, poco después, el antifaz blanco con el logo de Podium Podcast que entregaron a todos los asistentes. Llevaba impreso el mensaje “Estas son sus gafas de escuchar”. Bajaron las luces, nos pidieron que nos lo pusiéramos y comenzó un tráiler extendido de El gran apagón. Una ficción sonora con una producción muy cuidada que, en una sala llena de gente escuchando con los ojos tapados, me pareció casi un estreno de Hollywood llevado al terreno del podcast.Después llegaron las presentaciones oficiales del Grupo Prisa, con responsables de la compañía explicando las áreas sobre las que iba a construirse Podium: periodismo, entretenimiento, archivo sonoro y ficción. También hubo una mesa redonda moderada por Juan Cruz con Mario Vargas Llosa, Arturo Pérez-Reverte y Guillermo Arriaga, además de un saludo virtual de Los Tigres del Norte. Todo aquello terminaba de dejar claro que Prisa no estaba probando un experimento pequeño, sino apostando de verdad por el formato.Hay otro detalle que hoy agradezco especialmente. Francisco Marbel grabó prácticamente todo el acto y lo subió después íntegro a YouTube. Diez años más tarde, cuando he intentado documentarme para este episodio, he encontrado muy poca información y ese vídeo se ha convertido en un pequeño archivo histórico que permite volver a aquella tarde casi completa.Podium Podcast presentación de la red de Prisa Radiohttps://youtu.be/mfgQt_cpBTA?si=1UJpGIqqOHaIrP04Muchas cosas han cambiado desde entonces. Podium también. En 2016 se hablaba de contenido casi completamente nativo digital y hoy dentro de su catálogo conviven podcast, radio, producciones propias y contenidos para terceros. Pero creo que sería injusto no reconocer lo que aquella apuesta hizo por el podcasting en España. No inventaron el formato ni fueron los primeros en publicar podcasts, pero ayudaron a colocarlo delante de muchísima gente que todavía no sabía muy bien qué era aquello.Y por eso quería dejar este recuerdo aquí. Porque la #ArqueologíaPodcastera que tanto me gusta, también consiste en eso: guardar pequeñas piezas de nuestra historia antes de que desaparezcan entre enlaces rotos, recuerdos borrosos y vídeos que nadie vuelve a buscar._____________El próximo sábado 19 de septiembre se grabará el primer episodio de Efecto Alba dentro del ciclo Podnights Madrid 2026 en la Sala Cooltural del Hotel DormirDCine Madrid.

What if one of the biggest bottlenecks in your dealership isn't lead volume at all, but having the right people in the right seats? In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams are joined by Brandon Anderson for a powerful conversation about automotive Outsource BDC, Internet Sales, recruiting, staffing, and dealership efficiency. "Respecting people and talent is crucial... Understanding their impact is a win for everyone." - Brandon Anderson Using comparisons from the world of professional sports, the conversation breaks down why dealerships should stop treating hiring like a last-minute emergency and start thinking more strategically about talent. Just like a winning team scouts, develops, and places players based on their strengths, dealerships need a smarter approach to building the people and processes responsible for handling customer opportunities. "Winners hang with winners... When I realized Sean was a winner, I wanted to be a part of that team." - Brandon Anderson The episode also explores when outsourcing makes sense, how expert BDC support can strengthen dealership performance, and why proper alignment between people, process, and expectations can have a major impact on sales and profitability. "Your time is important... Don't focus on things that aren't going to move you towards the goal line." - Sean V. Bradley If you're a Dealer Principal, GM, GSM, Internet Director, or BDC Manager trying to improve lead handling, recruiting, efficiency, and overall dealership performance, this episode gives you a fresh perspective on how to build a stronger operation without giving away the entire playbook.

Send us Fan MailWhen Mike Elliott's marriage ended, he found himself collapsed on his kitchen floor, shaking and crying out, “I don't want to die.” In that moment, the successful adult man disappeared—and Mike recognized something much older underneath: the infant who had once been separated from his biological mother and was terrified of being abandoned again.That realization began a much deeper journey.In this episode of At the Podium, Mike reflects on being adopted, the grandmother who became his safe place, and the extraordinary experience of reading the journals his birth mother left behind. What began as a story he once carried with embarrassment eventually became something he describes as an honor.Our conversation widens into masculinity, vulnerability, relationships, personal responsibility, and the mythology of the self-made man. We also wrestle with a harder question: when powerful, high-performing men begin to heal their own wounds, what responsibility do they have for the collateral damage they may have caused along the way?Today, Mike uses what he has learned to work with men seeking greater connection with themselves and the people they love. His story is a reminder that healing is not simply an individual pursuit. Again and again, we are shaped, challenged, and ultimately transformed in relationship with others.We don't heal alone.

Eines der intensivsten Test-Erlebnisse seiner bisherigen Redakteurszeit - das will was heißen, in zwölf Jahren bei MOTORRAD und PS. In dieser Folge spricht PS-Redaktionsleiter Johannes Müller mit MOTORRAD-Podcaster Ferdinand Heinrich-Steige über seine Erlebnisse mit der BMW R 1300 RS. Mit der neuen, deutlich dynamischer gewordenen Generation des BMW-Sporttourers fuhr er auf Achse zum Boxercup nach Most - noch im Glauben, mit zumindest sehr potentem Werksmaterial anzutreten. Kleine Handicaps: Johannes musste nebenbei auch Bilder, Videos und eine Geschichte produzieren und war sein eigener Mechaniker. Am Rennwochenende offenbarten sich deshalb schnell die persönlichen Grenzen, aber auch die geradezu unnötig rennstreckentaugliche Ausrichtung der 1300er. Andere Reifen, Spiegel und Kennzeichen weg und schon ging's auf die Piste, wo die RS unerwartet sportlich unterwegs war. Kontrastiert vom beeindruckenden Landstraßen-Potenzial. Denn der schon auf dem Hinweg hohe Unterhaltungswert wurde nur noch vom surreal wirkenden Rückweg getoppt - eben noch Kampf ums Podium, jetzt wieder mitschwimmen im Verkehr. Kurzum: Ein intensives Wochenende, von dem es einiges zu erzählen gibt. Daher empfehlen wir euch unbedingt auch den Artikel, der im MOTORRAD BMW Spezial 2/2026 (ab 10. September 2026) oder in PS 11/2026 (ab 8. Oktober 2026) erscheint. Über die Podcast-Reihe Kurvendiskussion: Kurvendiskussion ist der Podcast der Zeitschrift MOTORRAD und erscheint alle 14 Tage neu. MOTORRAD-Redakteur und Podcaster Ferdinand Heinrich-Steige spricht mit Redakteurs- und Testkollegen sowie mit Gästen über aktuelle Modelle, Ausrüstung, Trends, Reisethemen und Motorradtechnik. In den Folgen, die meist zwischen 45 und 60 Minuten dauern, gibt es außerdem viele persönliche Eindrücke und die ein oder andere Anekdote aus dem Redaktionsalltag zu hören, die es im Heft nicht zu lesen gibt.

What's Chad's assessment of that roller coaster of a game? Also, as someone who played for both the Seahawks and the Patriots, what did he think of last night's NFL season opener?17:50 - Yesterday, Courtland Sutton said that Bo Nix is like a mountain lion at the Zoo. Bo Nix agreed with that assessment. Bo also spoke about the challenges/advantages of having a first time playcaller on offense.32:05 - Oh, by the way...Frank Caliendo addressed the Michigan/Western Michigan one extra second controversy in the most Frank Caliendo way possible.Oh, by the way...a comedian is going viral on social media for his spot on impression of every baseball play by play commentator.Oh, by the way...Deshaun Watson got a speeding ticket for going 86mph in a 60mph zone on I-480 outside of Cleveland. Hmmm...that sounds like...EVERY DRIVER ON I-25 AT ALL TIMES OF THE DAY.

Roger Vieira is back on The Ride Companion during the best season of his life... In this episode, Roger explains how Bernard Kerr's injury ultimately opened the door for him at Pivot, what life inside a factory downhill team is really like and whether factory support has actually made him faster or, simply given him the opportunity to show the speed he already had. Roger breaks down his first proper factory supported off-season, testing with FOX in California, riding in Queenstown, changing his approach to training and working with Bernard Kerr to improve some surprisingly specific weaknesses in his riding. We also get deep into the mental side of World Cup downhill racing. Roger explains the 'red zone vs blue zone' approach he's using with his mental coach, why World Cup qualifying creates so much pressure and what goes through his head in the seconds before leaving the start gate. Roger also explains why urban downhill brings out a completely different mentality in him, why he loves the Red Bull Cero Abajo series so much and the intricasies of downhill street racing. Once again, Roger delivers with great insights. We hope you enjoy the episode.

Send us Fan MailWhat does it mean to belong in higher education—and who gets the message that college is a place for them?Dr. Rosslyn Knight has spent more than 25 years in education, including leading developmental education initiatives across the Maricopa County Community College District. Her work has centered on student success, educational access, and what happens when institutions either recognize a student's potential—or fail to see it.In this episode of At the Podium, Rosslyn and I reconnect more than three decades after first meeting as students at Vanderbilt University. We talk about the teachers who shaped us, including the seventh-grade teacher who saw what Rosslyn was experiencing as the only Black girl in an honors classroom and introduced her to Toni Morrison's *The Bluest Eye*.But our conversation also asks harder questions about higher education today. What do we really mean by “merit”? What are the consequences when a student is told, “Maybe college isn't for you”? Why are men of color increasingly absent from college campuses? What does the end of race-conscious admissions mean for access and opportunity? And are we asking 17- and 18-year-olds to take on financial burdens they cannot yet fully understand?This is a conversation about education, race, student debt and access—but underneath all of it is something more fundamental: the lasting power of being seen, being believed in, and knowing that you belong.Listen. Reflect. Become.

Tjebbe Kaindl ist zurück im Triathlon-Chat – und diesmal bringt er ein Podium mit: Platz drei beim IRONMAN 70.3 Zell am See, bester Österreicher und die zweitschnellste Laufzeit des Tages. Und das nach vier Wochen Höhentraining, nur einem Monat spezifischer Vorbereitung auf dem TT-Bike und ohne klassisches Tapering.Tjebbe nimmt uns mit durch sein komplettes Rennen: Warum er beim Schwimmen plötzlich die Führungsarbeit übernahm, wie ein „Silent Attack“ in der Wechselzone funktioniert und weshalb er Lasse Priester und Jelle Geens am Anstieg trotz mehr als 400 Watt ziehen ließ.Richtig kurios wird es in T2: Statt seiner Gel-Verpackungen wirft Tjebbe beim Herauslaufen seine Laufuhr weg – und muss anschließend fast eine Minute Rückstand wieder zulaufen. Wie er trotzdem ruhig blieb, seinem Plan vertraute und das Podium sicherte, erzählt er ausführlich im Podcast.Dazu gibt es exklusive Einblicke aus dem Höhencamp in St. Moritz: Wie fit sind Kristian Blummenfelt, Gustav Iden und Casper Stornes wirklich? Wer musste Einheiten auslassen? Und gleichen drei Muffins eigentlich eine Cola Zero wieder aus?Außerdem sprechen wir über Tjebbes großes Ziel Olympia 2028 in Los Angeles, den Kampf um wichtige Punkte, seinen 17-jährigen Bruder Jelle, die „Kindle Brothers“ und die Tiroler Trainingsgruppe mit Fred Funk.Die große Frage: Bleibt die Mitteldistanz für Tjebbe nur eine Sidequest – oder sehen wir hier bereits einen zukünftigen 70.3-Star?Viel Spaß beim Hören!WERBUNG – LÖWENANTEIL

Burghley week is here, and this one feels genuinely wide open. Sarah Bullimore and Corimiro head to Stamford as the Prediction Centre favourites, but there are questions to answer and a long list of combinations ready to challenge them. Harry Meade and Cavalier Crystal know exactly how to deliver at Burghley, David Doel and Galileo Nieuwmoed bring one of the strongest cross-country records in the field, while Tom Jackson and United 36, Tim Price and Falco and plenty more come into the week with a very real chance. Nicole, Diarm, Spike and Annie dig into the numbers and the form, make the case for the combinations they think could win and look at where this year's competition could be decided. With the Burghley terrain, an incredibly tough cross-country time and no obvious standout at the top of the market, there is a lot to unpack before the first horse enters the arena. Highlights Why this could be one of the most open Burghleys in years The questions facing favourite Sarah Bullimore and Corimiro Why Harry Meade and Cavalier Crystal could have a huge opportunity The case for David Doel and Galileo Nieuwmoed Why Tom Jackson and United 36 are serious contenders The speed and stamina needed to make the Burghley time Could a horse starting in the 30s finally win? Podium predictions and dark horses from the team

What if the biggest thing holding your dealership back isn't the market, the leads, or even the competition... but the habits happening inside the store every single day? "The biggest bad habit you have is that you allow your employees to run your dealership." - Sean V. Bradley In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams take a hard look at the small, repeated behaviors that can quietly limit performance across every level of a dealership, from salespeople to leadership. "You've got to expect greatness from yourself." - LA Williams The conversation explores how complacency, inconsistent follow-up, underused technology, negative thinking, and drifting away from proven processes can slowly become part of the culture if they are not addressed. Sean and LA also challenge automotive professionals to think bigger about ownership, accountability, and personal growth, including what it really means to maximize the tools, training, opportunities, and resources already available to you. "If you don't know the tools inside and out, you're only using 10% or 20% of the potential value of it." - Sean V. Bradley If you are serious about becoming sharper, more disciplined, and more intentional in your career, this conversation will definitely make you look at your daily routine a little differently!

Despite being totally blind, LA has achieved significant success by leveraging his unique frameworks to inspire and educate automotive professionals to overcome adversity and maximize their potential.     Harnessing Success: Dissecting Effective Strategies from Automotive Sales Titans Key Takeaways Understanding and leveraging tools and technology is imperative for maximizing success in the automotive sales industry. The mindset of treating automotive sales as your own business can lead to unparalleled growth and innovation. Leadership rooted in authentic practice and constant self-improvement sets the groundwork for dealership excellence.   In the high-octane world of automotive sales, the difference between mediocrity and greatness isn't just about product knowledge or charismatic sales pitches. As illuminated in a vibrant exchange between industry veterans Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams, the path to monumental success encompasses mindset mastery, strategic tool utilization, and transformational leadership. With Sean's no-nonsense approach to self-empowerment and LA's captivating advocacy for greatness, automotive professionals are invited to embrace a revolutionary perspective on sales, management, and personal development.   Mastering Technology in Automotive Sales One of the most pertinent themes discussed is the underutilization of technology and resources within dealerships. Sean V. Bradley emphasizes the necessity for employees to fully engage with their available tools, stating, "You are only as strong as your weakest link." This indicates that even the most advanced technologies, akin to the latest iPhone features, yield little value if only used for basic functions. In dealerships where resources like CRM systems, AI integration, and data mining tools are abundant, the challenge is not in their availability but in their effective utilization. As Sean elaborates using the analogy of a ninja equipped with an arsenal of weapons, the expertise lies not in possessing tools but in mastering them: "Can you imagine if you only were able to use it basic or rudimentary?" The implications of this extend beyond individual success, reflecting on the dealership's profitability and competitive edge. With every employee maximizing their toolset, the collective efficacy of the dealership multiplies.   Adopting an Entrepreneurial Mindset Transitioning from technology to mindset, Sean and LA underscore an entrepreneurial approach to automotive sales, treating it as one's own business. Many salespeople fall into the trap of dependency, leading to complacency and stagnation. Instead, Sean encourages a paradigm shift, "You are building your business within the dealership's business." This self-starter attitude circumvents any limitations posed by the dealership's supply of leads or market fluctuations. By pursuing eight varied strategies for car sales—ranging from walk-ins to referrals and beyond—sales professionals can expand their influence and multiply opportunities. This entrepreneurial mindset not only fuels personal income growth but fosters an environment where innovation thrives, setting apart top performers like Cody Carter, who achieved remarkable earnings by mastering these principles. The broader impact of this theme reveals a market characterized by agile, autonomous professionals poised for optimum success.   Transformative Leadership and Accountability Effective leadership, as addressed by Sean, emerges as the backbone of all transformative practices within a dealership. Critically, he observes a pervasive issue: leaders allowing employees to dictate the pace and quality of operations. "You allow your employees to run your dealership," Sean firmly states, highlighting a common pitfall among dealers. For an organization striving for excellence, leadership rooted in authentic practice and unwavering accountability holds the key. The narrative implores leaders to embody the values and discipline they wish to instill in their teams. "Are you the personification of what you're trying to articulate to your people?" Sean challenges. By doing so, they ensure that processes are adhered to and that strategic goals are not just theoretical ideals but operational realities. This approach to leadership extends beyond immediate organizational benefits, fostering a culture that values integrity, dedication, and continuous improvement. As these qualities permeate through all organizational levels, the dealership elevates its standing and success in the competitive automotive landscape.   In examining the dynamic dialogue and intricate strategies shared by Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams, automotive professionals are invited to transcend conventional practices and embrace transformative methodologies. From mastering cutting-edge technologies to adopting an entrepreneurial spirit, and executing authentic leadership, the road to monumental success is paved with conscious decisions, self-mastery, and community empowerment. This profound discourse draws a blueprint not merely for immediate gain but for enduring excellence and innovation in the automotive sales industry.       Resources + Our Proud Sponsors:   ➼ Podium: The AI Platform Powering the Modern Dealership.

SaaStr 875: Who Owns Your Data Now? Agents vs. System of Record, ServiceTitan vs. Podium, Headless Salesforce, and Agentic Renewals on The Agents #013 The agents are writing data faster than any human ever could - and systems of record aren't ready for it. This week on The Agents, Jason and Amelia dig into the biggest meta-theme of 2026: what happens when your AI agents become the primary user of your CRM, your MAP, and every other system you've built your business on? Together, they unpack the ServiceTitan vs. Podium blowup, where an agentic lead gen tool slowly became a competing system of record until ServiceTitan shut them off with 30 days' notice, and why this is just the first of many fights like it coming across SaaS. Then Amelia pulls back the curtain on how SaaStr actually runs Salesforce headless through 10K, what it means that their agents have written 40 gigabytes of data into Salesforce without either of them logging in, and why the storage math is going to force a reckoning for every vendor jacking up API prices right now. Plus: the renewal agent Amelia built that generates a fully custom, hyper-personalized pitch deck for every single customer, using headless Salesforce, Gamma, social data, podcast mentions, and Gmail. And why Clay plus ZoomInfo plus Cowork turned out to be the best enrichment stack their agents have found yet. If you're building on top of systems of record, selling to companies that are, or just trying to figure out how agents change the economics of SaaS data, this one is essential listening. Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 02:00 - ServiceTitan cuts off Podium: what happened and why it matters 10:00 - 40 gigs in Salesforce and neither of us logged in 16:00 - The API pricing reckoning coming for systems of record 22:00 - How SaaStr runs Salesforce headless with 10K 30:00 - The renewal agent: no account left behind 42:00 - Narrative-first pitching: getting the agent to sell 50:00 - Clay + ZoomInfo + Cowork: the enrichment stack that actually worked 58:00 - What comes next: agentic inbound proposals SaaStr hosts the world's largest community for B2B software founders and executives.

They said "you figure it out." So what will the NCAA do?19:11 - Carmelo Anthony has a podcast, because every athlete with a pulse has one these days. He recently delved into an off-court activity he used for team bonding. When they needed to break out of a losing streak, they frequented a particular establishment. But his read on the situation is a flat out lie. 37:44 - Sean Payton spoke after practice yesterday, and answered (or didn't answer) everyone's questions in his classic Payton way. Good question.

What does it really take to reach your potential—and what separates the pursuit of excellence from simply being "good enough"? In this episode, I'm joined by Mike "Frog" Frogley, one of the most highly regarded minds in wheelchair basketball, for a conversation about high performance, leadership, culture, curiosity, failure and what it really means to pursue your best. Mike represented Canada at the 1992 Paralympic Games before moving into coaching, where he would help guide Canada to back-to-back Paralympic gold medals in 2000 and 2004. Across 21 years coaching in the US collegiate system, his teams also won a combined 12 national championships. But this conversation isn't simply about medals or basketball. It's about the process behind excellence. In this episode, you'll discover:

What happens when a global call center veteran steps into the automotive industry and starts questioning the way dealerships have always done things?  In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams sit down with Lee Harris, current Internet Director at Minnesota Truck Headquarters, a BPO veteran turned automotive innovator who is bringing a completely different perspective to dealership customer engagement. "Your most valuable asset that you have in your dealership, it's not the cars on the floor, it's not the cars in the showroom, it's the people." – Lee Harris With years of experience leading high-volume customer service, operations, and technology organizations, Lee is taking lessons from outside automotive and applying them to one of the industry's biggest opportunities: how dealerships communicate with, follow up with, and ultimately serve today's customer. The conversation dives into the evolution of the traditional BDC, the growing role of AI and automation, the importance of stronger processes and training, and why technology should make dealership teams MORE effective without removing the human connection.  "AI doubles in capacity and capability every two weeks." – Lee Harris If you're a Dealer Principal, GM, BDC leader, sales manager, or automotive professional trying to prepare for where customer engagement is headed next, you're going to want to hear this conversation! Key Takeaways: ✅ Lee Harris highlights the value of integrating advanced AI tools and CRM customization to enhance client services' effectiveness within car dealerships. ✅ The automotive sector often lags in adopting modern technology, with Harris noting the industry's typical five to seven-year lag behind bleeding-edge solutions. ✅ Personalization and the human element remain crucial in customer interactions, even when leveraging high-end AI tools to streamline processes. ✅ Fostering a team environment where personnel investment in training and morale is prioritized can drive substantial success, as evidenced by record-breaking sales figures at MTH. ✅ Harris advises dealership leaders to rethink traditional managerial roles by emphasizing leadership qualities that inspire and genuinely connect with employees.   About Lee Harris Lee Harris is a seasoned professional with nearly three decades of experience in the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry. He began his career as an agent and ascended to senior executive roles at large organizations like Conduent, Xerox Services, and Sutherland Healthcare. Harris has been involved with operations in numerous countries, managing substantial revenues and diverse teams. Currently, he is the Director of Business Development at Minnesota Truck Headquarters (MTH) in St. Cloud, where his expertise in technology, customer experience, and process development is helping redefine automotive sales strategies.     AI Revolution in Automotive BDC: Transforming Client Services in Dealerships   Key Takeaways: Adapting New Technologies: CRM technologies are increasingly seen as outdated; AI tools are proving indispensable for operational efficiency in auto dealerships. Focus on Human Capital: Building a dedicated, well-trained team with a strong culture and synergy is vital for success. Engagement Optimization: Increasing customer engagement through technology, particularly AI, is paramount for maximizing showroom visits and sales success.   The Shift from Traditional BDC to AI Integration in Dealerships In the ever-evolving landscape of automotive sales, dealerships are faced with the need to innovate or risk being left behind. This conversation brings to light the transformational journey from traditional Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems to Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven strategies. As Lee Harris from Minnesota Truck Headquarters shares, "AI doubles in capacity and capability every two weeks," underscoring the rapid advancement and adoption of technology that is necessary for modern dealerships to thrive. The podcast participants echo a pivotal revelation: the traditional CRM's limitations in dynamically adapting to ever-changing dealership needs. Sean V. Bradley emphasizes, "CRM is antiquated technology now," advocating for a shift towards tools like Podium's AI. This technology steps beyond static scripts, offering dynamic, personalized communication powered by an extensive knowledge base. This ability, Harris notes, allows dealerships to handle communications with precision, enhancing customer interaction and satisfaction. Through this integration, dealerships empower their sales teams to focus on high-impact interactions by letting AI handle routine, low-complexity tasks. Bradley states, "If we delegate all the tier one remedial activities to artificial intelligence, […] now my humans can focus on higher levels." This delegation not only optimizes human resource capabilities but also maximizes lead conversion, showcasing the multilateral benefits of AI over traditional CRM systems.   Emphasizing Human Capital and Leadership In the broader scheme of automotive business development, human capital remains the cornerstone of any successful dealership. Lee Harris passionately argues for investing in people, expressing, "Your people are the most precious thing that you have in your group, in your responsibility." This sentiment is a cornerstone for transformational leadership and modern business strategies within dealerships. The discussion probes into what sets excellent dealerships apart — their approach to nurturing and investing in a highly competent and motivated workforce. For Harris, leading a team goes beyond managing transactions; it's about cultivating a culture of excellence where team members understand their value and are equipped with the right tools and training. By stating, "Invest both professionally and personally into those individuals to be successful," Harris emphasizes the significance of a dedicated and well-supported team for achieving dealership objectives. Training and development play an integral role in this framework. Dealer Synergy's Bradley On Demand platform is applauded for its comprehensive training, ensuring that team members "don't even get to touch a phone until they are through the initial training," a practice that ingrains a regiment of quality assurance and preparedness foundational to operational success.   Revolutionizing Customer Engagement A recurring theme throughout the dialogue is the pivotal role of customer engagement strategies in dictating sales and dealership success. The integration of AI is poised to revolutionize how dealerships engage with prospective customers, significantly bridging gaps between inquiries and successful sales. Bradley notes the chronic issue of low engagement levels, stating that most dealership efforts result in "not talking to somebody." This reveals a critical area of opportunity — the need for effective engagement strategies. AI tools like Podium's Jerry 2.0 transform engagement dynamics by facilitating omnipresent communication, ensuring customer interactions are timely, relevant, and personalized. In integrating AI, dealerships can remarkably enhance appointment show rates, which Harris notes as being "73% appointment show ratio" — a staggering figure above industry averages. This indicates AI's profound impact on bridging communication gaps, ensuring prospects are guided efficiently through the sales funnel. The potential of AI in this capacity is magnified by its ability to analyze and learn from interactions, delivering nuanced conversations that are tailored to client needs and potentially increasing showroom traffic and sales. Harris concludes, adopting "convenience and a friction-free process" is essential for translating client inquiries into satisfied customers, highlighting AI's role in crafting seamless customer journeys. In the evolving landscape of automotive sales and services, the dealership's adaptability to AI-driven methodologies is not just a competitive advantage; it is becoming a standard of future-forward operations. The rich discussions from industry leaders cast a spotlight on the profound changes AI brings, demonstrating a roadmap for others to follow, where smart technology and human empathy work in tandem toward exceptional dealership success.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors: ➼ Podium: The AI Platform Powering the Modern Dealership.

How much of your technology stack is being held together by people swiveling between screens, copying information, and quietly compensating for systems that cannot communicate? In this episode, I speak with John Foreman, Chief Product Officer at Clio, about what he calls the "swivel chair problem." John previously served as Chief Product Officer at Mailchimp and Podium, and now helps guide product development at a company seeking to support the complete operation of a law firm. We discuss why legal professionals have moved from understandable caution around AI toward increasingly sophisticated daily use. John explains why concerns about client confidentiality, intellectual property, model training, and data access initially slowed adoption, as well as why lawyers are now helping set the pace for responsible professional AI use. Our conversation also examines why disconnected technology stacks make AI appear far less capable. People can interpret information across documents, billing platforms, case management tools, email, and court systems. An AI system cannot perform the same work unless it receives the necessary context and access. John also explains why the familiar chatbot may be the wrong interface for many jobs. Some AI tasks should happen quietly, while work involving legal filings and client records requires structured review, accountability, and human approval. With lawyers spending an average of 62% of their time on nonbillable work, the immediate opportunity could include intake, billing, timekeeping, reviews, document processing, and filing. These lessons extend well beyond legal services. Where is the swivel chair problem hiding inside your organization? Listen to the conversation and share your thoughts with me.

In this episode of the Industry Spotlight, joining host Sam D'Arc are John Keohane, VP of Operations and Partner at Temecula Valley Buick GMC, and Liam Golightly, SVP of Customer Success at Podium to discuss how AI operator agents are giving dealership leaders a way to run their entire operation without being in every conversation themselves. John built his own AI agent, which he nicknamed Emily, to scrape telematics data, run weekly revival campaigns on stale leads, and even coach his sales team by timing how fast they respond before Emily steps in. The results are hard to ignore: Emily replaced his old bulk texting tool, helped uncover a customer-pay revenue drop in six seconds instead of weeks, and pushed his service department's customer-pay repair orders up 12 to 13 percent this year. For a single-point dealer competing against much larger groups, John says the technology has become a genuine equalizer. This episode of the Car Dealership Guy Podcast is brought to you by Podium.
