AppleInsider spotted the latest bizarre wrinkle to this story, which is that the actual phone still does not exist. The publication noticed that promotional images for T1 all show different smartphones that appear to be tweaked in a photo editor to look gold. While the website shows a badly edited image of what appears to be a Revvl 7 Pro 5G phone, an Instagram ad seems to depict an iPhone 16 Pro Max, again with the company's branding overlaid. A third confusing image edit was posted on X earlier this week. That photo shows a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra equipped with a case made by Spigen. The South Korean accessory company's logo can be seen behind the render of an American flag. In other news, Germany-based search engine and browser nonprofit Ecosia is the latest party to make an offer for Google's Chrome. Questions about Chrome's fate have been swirling since the news that the Department of Justice would push for Google to sell the browser after the ruling that the company's search engine business constituted a monopoly. And the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration just announced an investigation into Tesla regarding its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems. That's according to a report by Electrek. The road safety regulator says the probe involves inconsistencies with how the company reports crashes regarding the aforementioned systems. Learn more about your ad choices.

Elon Musk heeft weer iemand gevonden om ruzie mee te maken. Dit keer is het Apple. Volgens Musk bevoordeelt het bedrijf ChatGPT. Iets waar zijn AI-toepassing Grok last van heeft. Hij stapt naar de rechter. Net als president Trump. Al gaat die dan weer niet achter Apple aan, maar achter Jerome Powell. Volgens Trump komt er (misschien) een 'grote rechtszaak' tegen de Fed-baas. Met daarbij een hele trits aan beschuldigingen.Deze aflevering hebben we het over die juridische ruzies, maar staan we óók stil bij de problemen van Apple. Over een maand komt het bedrijf met een nieuwe iPhone, al is onduidelijk wat die telefoon gaat kosten. Hoeveel van Trumps heffingen durft Apple door te berekenen?Over heffingen gesproken: ook hoor je meer over de wapenstilstand tussen de VS en China. Er komen negentig dagen bij om tot een akkoord te komen. Extra dagen komen er niet meer bij voor het Chinese Evergrande. Het beursavontuur is voorbij, het doek valt. We bespreken de ondergang van het bedrijf dat ooit 50 miljard dollar waard was. Ook komt de nieuwe baas van het Amerikaanse statistiekbureau voorbij. De vorige werd ontslagen omdat ze onbetrouwbare data zou leveren. De huidige wordt nu geloofd door Trump, maar wordt 'ie ook gepruimd door beleggers?Verder aandacht voor een bijzondere ontdekking van de vrienden van persbureau Bloomberg. Het woord recessie is sinds 2001 niet zo weinig gevallen bij Amerikaanse topmannen als nu. Wat zegt dat? Zijn ze naïef of gewoon vol zelfvertrouwen?

We reviewed the original Hoverair X1 some time ago and recently two new drones were released, the Hoverair X1 Pro and the Pro Max.  The difference between them is the Pro Max records in 8K video and has visual cameras for better collision avoidance.  Jim and Fred take the Pro model out to show off the increased range and the fact it has more and better manual flight modes, as well as a beacon to improve the 'follow me' modes!

The ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ is expected to introduce a significant redesign. The device will move from titanium frame to an aluminum unibody. As part of this new design, the rear camera array will be made out of aluminum and the entire width of the back, with the flash and the LiDAR scanner moving to the right side. To enable wireless charging, there will be a glass cutout in the aluminum chassis below the large camera bump. The Apple logo will move down to be centered to this glass segment, which will lead to some MagSafe accessories such as clear cases being redesigned so that the logo can still be seen. A new cover glass with improved scratch resistance and a better anti-reflective coating are also expected. The new Pro models are rumored to come in black, white, gray, dark blue, gray, and orange finishes. There are also sketchy reports of an iridescent-style "Liquid Glass" colorway. The device is almost certain to be powered by the A19 Pro chip with 12GB of memory – a 50% increase. Thermal enhancements are also expected, along with battery life improvements. All four ‌iPhone 17‌ models that are coming in 2025 will likely have Apple's first custom-designed Wi-Fi chip with Wi-Fi 7 support. Major improvements are anticipated for the rear camera system, with the telephoto making the jump to 48-megapixels to match the main and ultra-wide cameras. It could also have an 8x optical zoom instead of the current 5x. There are also reports of an all-new "pro" camera app and even an additional camera control. The ‌iPhone 17‌ lineup is now rumored to be announced on Tuesday, September 9. The series of devices could see a $50 price hike, but a base storage bump from 128GB to 256GB is possible for the ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌.

Dell Technologies has today announced the launch and availability of its next generation of flagship laptops, now rebranded under the new Dell Premium line. The Pro Max marks a new chapter in Dell's premium offering, replacing the XPS brand while retaining its hallmark craftsmanship, performance, and design. The new line includes the Dell 14 Premium and Dell 16 Premium and are positioned as the company's lead offering for users seeking high-performance, future-ready devices. The laptops are now available in Ireland. New Pro Max laptops have AI features Built on Intel Core Ultra 200H series processors, the Dell Premium range delivers significant gains in both performance and battery life. The 14.5-inch and 16.3-inch screens offer increased display real estate without expanding the devices' footprint, while OLED options with 4K resolution and 120Hz refresh rates provide enhanced visual quality. The range also includes features such as EyeSafe technology for reduced blue light exposure and Liquid Crystal Polymer fan blades designed for more efficient, quiet cooling. Kevin Terwilliger, Vice-President and General Manager of the PC Product Management Group, Dell Technologies said: "We're in a dynamic era where technology serves as both the tool and the canvas for ideas and innovation. Built for the power users, engineers, creators and AI developers transforming industries, these AI PCs not only handle the most demanding AI workflows but set the standard for performance and creativity. "Reliability, configurability, and performance aren't just features - they're the foundation. We know professionals need tools they can count on to tackle their most critical and impactful workloads, and that's what we deliver." Early benchmarks show up to 33% improved performance for general use and up to 21% faster speeds for lighter creative workloads. The 14-inch model offers up to 20 hours of streaming battery life, with the 16-inch version extending to 27 hours using energy-efficient 2K displays. Both laptops support memory speeds up to 8400MHz, while advanced multithreading improves performance for heavier workflows such as video editing or content processing. The Dell 16 Premium can be configured with up to Intel Core Ultra 9 processors and offers 45W sustained CPU power. An optional NVIDIA RTX 50 Series GPU delivers AI-enhanced graphics and DLSS 4 for accelerated image rendering, while Thunderbolt 5 connectivity (optional) supports transfer speeds up to 120Gbps and multi-monitor setups with up to four 8K displays. The smaller Dell 14 Premium model includes integrated graphics with 29% faster processing, and optional RTX 4050 GPU for enhanced creative performance. Both models support Wi-Fi 7 for improved network speed and responsiveness. Build quality and materials used by Dell remain a key focus, with both devices featuring CNC-machined aluminium, Gorilla Glass 3, and a streamlined edge-to-edge design. Sustainability measures have also been expanded, with the range meeting ENERGY STAR 9.0, EPEAT Gold Climate+, and integrating recycled aluminium and plastics in both construction and packaging. All devices ship with Windows 11 and include Copilot on Windows, Microsoft's integrated AI assistant. The release comes ahead of the October 2025 end-of-support date for Windows 10, as businesses and consumers here in Ireland prepare to upgrade to more secure and modern platforms. Pricing and Availability Dell 14 Premium starting at €1,899.00 is now available Dell 16 Premium starting at €1,998.99 is now available See more breaking stories here.

デルが新「Dell Pro Max」モバイルワークステーションを発表　一部を除きNVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwellを搭載可能。　デル・テクノロジーズは7月28日、高性能ノートPC／モバイルワークステーション「Dell Pro Max」シリーズの新モデルを発表した。同日から順次販売を開始する。

After Tesla's Q2 2025 earnings call, Elon Musk's comment that the new affordable model is "a Model Y" sent shockwaves through the community, leading to frustration and confusion. Many now believe Tesla's next big vehicle is just a cheaper, stripped-down trim of the current Model Y. In this video, I'll break down why I believe that's wrong. I'll argue that Tesla isn't just removing features from the Model Y. Instead, they are launching a new model on the same platform: a shorter wheelbase Model Y. This move, combined with the recently revealed longer "Model Y L" in China, points to a brilliant 3-tier product strategy, much like Apple's iPhone lineup (Standard, Pro, Pro Max). Join me as I connect the dots and explain my theory on the "Model Y S" (Short), how Tesla can make it significantly cheaper, and why this is a genius move to maximize their existing production lines, expand their market, and navigate the end of the US federal tax credit. Topics Covered in this Video: - Elon Musk's controversial Q2 earnings call comment. - The flaw in the "cheaper trim" argument. - My Theory: The Model Y S (Short), Model Y (Standard), and Model Y L (Long). - Evidence from the new 6-seater Model Y L in China. - How Tesla can reduce the price by $6,000 - $8,000. - Addressing headwinds: The expiring tax credit vs. the increasing demand from FSD improvements. - Tesla's long-term manufacturing and platform strategy. What are your thoughts on Tesla's upcoming affordable model? Let me know in the comments below! Social

Rejoignez la communauté iWeek et soutenez-nous sur patreon.com/iweek !Voici l'épisode 238 d'iWeek (la semaine Apple), le podcast avec ses chapitres !iPhone 17 Pro et iPhone 17 Pro Max : les quatre nouveautés photo-vidéo attendues.Enregistré samedi 28 juin 2025 à 11h45, enregistrement accessible en direct sur X, YouTube et LinkedIn Live. Un épisode châpitré : profitez-en !Présentation : Benjamin Vincent avec la participation de Gilles Dounès, ex-rédacteur en chef de MacPlus et co-auteur de “iPod backstage“ (Dunod).Au sommaire de cet épisode 238 : La nouvelle gamme iPhone 17 devrait être dévoilée par Apple à la rentrée et donc dans un peu plus de deux mois. A l'approche de la keynote de septembre, les rumeurs se multiplient sur les caractéristiques des nouveaux iPhone et notamment des deux modèles “Pro“ : l'iPhone 17 Pro et l'iPhone 17 Pro Max avec, cette semaine, plusieurs précisions sur les rumeurs qui concernent les quatre nouveautés majeures attendues pour la partie audio-vidéo : c'est l'info de la semaine.L'événement de la semaine ne concerne pas directement Apple, quoi que... puisqu'il s'agit d'IA et de la décision d'un tribunal de Californie après plainte contre Anthropic, l'éditeur de Claude, concurrent de chatGPT. Le tribunal a estimé que l'utilisation d'oeuvres protégées par le droit d'auteur pour entraîner l'IA d'Anthropic... relevait de l'usage équitable, autrement dit d'utilisations sans autorisation mais dans un cadre légal. Le jugement pourrait faire jurisprudence et on s'en inquiète, évidemment.Plusieurs infos au programme du JT de la semaine : l'iPhone 17 Air quasiment confirmé dans du code Apple, des détails sur son probable système de refroidissement qui serait une première sur iPhone, une référence au AirTag 2 dans iOS 18.6, des détails sur l'Apple Watch Ultra 3 avec une date de disponibilité potentielle à la rentrée et, enfin, un rappel de cinq batteries par Anker face à un risque d'incendie.Enfin, chers soutiens, nous l'enregistrons pour vous : le bonus hebdo exclusif. Cette semaine, suite du "retour sur" déjà consacré à la forme que pourrait prendre le premier produit chatGPT imaginé par Jony Ive et Sam Altman : dans le bonus, nous revenons sur le rétropédalage opéré par OpenAI à propos de l'acquisition de "IO", la startup de Jony Ive (pour 6,4 milliards de $) : toute mention du rapprochement a disparu du site d'OpenAI à cause d'une bataille judiciaire aux Etats-Unis à propos de la propriété de la marque, contestée par une autre entreprise, "iyO", avec laquelle plusieurs membres de l'équipe d'IO avaient été en contact.À mardi prochain, 1er juillet pour l'épisode 239 dont l'enregistrement sera à suivre en direct sur sur X, YouTube et LinkedIn Live à un horaire probablement plus tardif que d'habitude : nous vous le préciserons ici et sur X d'ici là.Hébergé par Ausha.

Bradley, CSP, and co-host LA Williams sit down with Shep Hyken, the internationally renowned customer service and customer experience expert, best-selling author, and keynote speaker, to explore the critical role exceptional customer experience plays in today's automotive industry. "They're not just comparing you to another dealer. They're going to compare you to the best experience they ever had." — Shep Hyken As the market navigates post-pandemic shifts and economic challenges like high interest rates and limited inventory, Shep shares actionable strategies that dealerships can implement right now to stand out. From customer engagement to loyalty-building techniques, Shep dives deep into what it takes to create an unforgettable experience at every customer touchpoint.

Are you prepared to elevate your dealership's customer experience and boost retention in today's competitive market? Tune in to find out how to turn service into a powerful driver of long-term success.   Key Takeaways: ✅ Enhancing customer retention is often more beneficial and cost-effective than solely focusing on acquiring new business. ✅ Leveraging technology and AI, such as Podium, can significantly improve customer interactions and streamline dealership operations. ✅ Maintaining a positive work culture among employees directly influences the quality of customer service delivered. ✅ Leading dealerships prioritize creating a seamless and consistent experience across all customer touchpoints, setting them apart in service delivery.

Leveraging Existing Customer Relationships: Prioritizing current customer engagement and retention is more cost-effective and profitable than focusing solely on new lead acquisition. Artificial Intelligence as a Game-Changer: AI innovations are transforming the dealership landscape by enhancing customer interactions and streamlining operations. Enhancing the Customer Experience in Automotive Retail In the rapidly evolving automotive industry, dealerships must adapt their strategies to exceed customer expectations. Sean V. Bradley and Shep Hyken dive into the intricacies of customer satisfaction and experience, two interrelated yet distinct components that every dealership should master. According to Hyken, "The way that whole thing is handled, is it easy? Is it hassle-free?" Such questions underscore the need for seamless web interfaces and responsive sales teams to create an unparalleled service atmosphere. Customer experience encompasses every interaction a consumer has with a dealership, from visiting the website to consulting with a salesperson. For car dealerships aiming for world-class status, it's crucial to transcend industry standards and look outside the industry for inspiration. As Hyken wisely notes, "They're going to compare you to the best experience they ever had." This calls for analyzing experiences provided by leaders like Amazon and Walmart to ensure dealerships offer frictionless, memorable interactions that build long-term loyalty. Retention vs. Acquisition: The Loyalty Revenue Stream Prioritizing existing customers over acquiring new ones can seem counterintuitive, yet it's a strategic pivot that aligns with both customer retention and profitability. As discussed by Sean V. Bradley, focusing on your current customer base can lead to higher conversion rates and increased revenue. "NADA says that a prior customer is a 65% closing ratio and a much higher gross profit," he remarks, emphasizing a shift towards maintaining strong relationships with your existing clientele. Moreover, service departments play a pivotal role. With a "service customer to your point is seven times as likely to purchase a vehicle if they service a car," embracing service excellence not only ensures immediate customer satisfaction but also strengthens their connection to the brand, making them more likely to return for future purchases. The foundational principle is clear: solidify customer loyalty through consistent, exceptional service, thereby reducing churn and boosting long-term profitability. The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Transforming Dealerships Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to reshape traditional dealership models by optimizing customer interactions and operational efficiencies. Shep Hyken highlights AI's potential in generating personalized and high-quality customer interactions. "AI needs to be smart enough to not give the wrong answer," Hyken advocates, outlining the balance between maintaining human oversight and deploying AI for scalable customer service solutions. Podium's AI-powered platforms offer tools that handle after-hours inquiries, schedule test drives, and maintain conversational consistency across multiple platforms, ensuring a seamless transition between digital and in-person interactions. In an age where most touchpoints before a sale are digital, embedding AI in CRM systems elevates customer experiences. As Bradley affirms, "If your AI is integrated with your CRM, if your AI is integrated with your online reputation strategy…it is next level." By streamlining these processes, dealerships can enhance engagement, nurture relationships, and ultimately drive more sales.   The automotive industry stands at a pivotal juncture where transformation is not just necessary but imperative. By understanding the nuances between customer service and experience, fostering robust relationships with existing customers, and embracing cutting-edge technologies like AI, dealerships can not only survive the intricacies of the modern market but truly thrive in it. The insights shared by industry experts provide a roadmap to not only meet but exceed customer expectations, ensuring loyalty and profitability in uncertain times.   Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

Tianna is an enthusiastic champion of dealership success, providing valuable insights on sales through various media, including the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast.   Building a Personal Brand in Automotive Sales: Unlocking Success Through Innovation In the high-stakes world of automotive sales, standing out is paramount. As revealed in the dynamic conversation between Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick, the path to extraordinary success involves treating car sales like your own business. This article explores how building a personal brand can transform your career, leveraging technology, creativity, and strategic investment. Key Takeaways Developing a personal brand within the dealership's brand is crucial for differentiation and success in automotive sales. Proactively investing in your own marketing efforts can yield significant returns in terms of sales performance. Utilizing artificial intelligence and technology streamlines marketing processes and enhances customer engagement. The Power of Personal Branding in Automotive Sales Creating a personal brand within the automotive industry isn't just a fancy trend—it's a necessity for standing out in a crowded marketplace. Both Sean V. Bradley and Tianna Mick emphasize that most salespeople miss the mark by not establishing their own brand identity. The traditional method of relying solely on dealership leads and foot traffic is becoming obsolete. With technology at our fingertips and the automotive landscape rapidly evolving, sales professionals must differentiate themselves. As Sean notes, "Car sales is like owning your own business." Tianna Mick illustrates this by sharing her journey with the brand "T got your keys," which reflects her personality and values. She highlights the importance of colors, logos, and slogans, as these elements create a lasting impression. "You want to be on the top of mind of all of your customers and all of your prospects' minds," Tianna asserts, underscoring the enduring influence a well-crafted brand can have. Besides personalization, the strategic use of social media amplifies reach and builds credibility. "You pick a brand name that's memorable," Tianna advises, while emphasizing the seamless integration of brand elements across various platforms to maintain consistency and professional growth. Leveraging Technology and AI in Personal Branding Incorporating technology, especially artificial intelligence, is a game-changer for any salesperson looking to elevate their brand. From utilizing AI tools like ChatGPT for creating brand names and logos to integrating them with design platforms like Canva, the possibilities are endless. Sean indicates, "ChatGPT can do this, you know, for free or for practically free," promoting efficiency in establishing your brand. Moreover, AI offers innovative ways to manage customer interactions—Podium's conversational AI being a prime example. For salespeople, AI provides the opportunity to remain engaged with potential customers even during off-hours, ensuring no sales opportunity is missed. As the conversation reveals, AI doesn't just automate processes; it complements your efforts, acting as an omnipresent team member that keeps your operations running smoothly, freeing you to focus on delivering exceptional service and building relationships. The strategy extends to harnessing analytics for targeted marketing. As Tianna experienced, integrating a platform like "Build a Brand" with CRM systems ensures every customer interaction is optimized for success. The data-driven approach not only refines marketing strategies but also enhances service delivery, creating a competitive edge in the bustling automotive market. Investment Strategies for Personal Branding Success Realizing your brand's full potential often requires a financial commitment. Investing in marketing materials and tools is integral to expanding visibility and reinforcing your brand in customers' minds. While discussing budget allocations, Sean shares a proactive approach, encouraging salespeople to approach dealership management for marketing support, emphasizing a shared investment in achieving common goals. "Why don't people lift weights? Because they're heavy," Sean humorously notes, driving the point that investing might seem daunting but is ultimately rewarding. But it's not just about asking for funds; it's about presenting a strategic plan that illustrates potential returns. Tianna supports, "The more car sales I sell you, you get. But I get it," illuminating the mutual benefits of such collaboration. However, even if funding isn't an immediate option, looking at cost-effective methods like custom business cards and creative partnerships with local businesses can still drive significant impact. For sales professionals willing to invest in themselves, leveraging resources smartly can stimulate growth. This could mean setting aside a part of the commission for marketing initiatives or using affordable online platforms for brand promotion. Sean emphasizes that "scared money don't make any money," urging salespeople to be bold and strategic in their financial decisions to ensure exponential growth. By crafting a personal brand, utilizing cutting-edge technology, and committing to strategic investments, automotive salespeople can distinguish themselves from the competition. Tianna and Sean's conversation highlights a pathway to success that combines innovation with personalized service—keys to thriving in today's automotive landscape.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, LA Williams and Tianna Mick (aka T Got Your Keys) pull back the curtain on some of the most overlooked—and underutilized—strategies that today's top automotive professionals are using to drive real results. "Social media absolutely has to be social. I got some tips that I could give to you if you want me." — LA Williams From communication techniques that reignite cold leads to modern tools that streamline the sales process, this high-energy conversation touches on the evolving toolkit of the 2025 car salesperson. Without giving too much away, let's just say if you've ever underestimated the power of a voicemail or dismissed AI as a “future thing,” this episode is about to change your mind. "AI is to just make workarounds so that way you actually have more time to focus on the things that are going to yield you the biggest result." — Tianna Mick Tianna and LA break down how today's buyers want to be engaged—and more importantly, how you can become the kind of salesperson who shows up where they are, with the right message, at the right time. If you're ready to stop selling like it's 2012 and start connecting like it's 2025, this episode is for you.   Key Takeaways: ✅ Voicemail Strategy: Creating engaging, curiosity-driven voicemails can significantly increase customer callbacks and drive sales success. ✅ AI in Dealerships: AI tools like ChatGPT and Podium enhance customer service by providing quick and relevant responses, ultimately improving lead conversion. ✅ Social Media Engagement: Leveraging platforms like Facebook and Instagram with a mix of personal, professional, and purposeful content helps build a loyal customer base. ✅ Personalization and Authenticity: Personalizing interactions and maintaining authenticity in customer communications is crucial for building trust and driving sales. ✅ AI Training for Sales: Encouraging salespeople to familiarize themselves with AI tools can streamline operations and save time, allowing focus on high-impact activities.   About LA Williams aka The Blind Master LA Williams, also known as the "Blind Phone Master," co-creates the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast. With extensive experience in automotive sales, LA specializes in effective communication strategies, particularly over the phone. Known for his ability to transform ordinary sales approaches into high-impact experiences, he uses his expertise to teach others how to achieve success in the car sales industry. LA is also recognized for his innovative use of technology, especially AI, to improve sales processes.   About Tianna Mick aka T Got Your Keys Tianna Mick, famously known as "T Got Your Keys," is a prominent figure in the automotive sales space. With a deep-rooted passion for engaging with customers through social media and digital platforms, she leverages cutting-edge tools and strategies to maximize customer engagement. Tianna is an enthusiastic champion of dealership success, providing valuable insights on sales through various media, including the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast.   Maximize Your Sales: The Art of Voicemails, AI, and Social Media in Car Sales Unlock the hidden potential of your dealership through the strategic use of voicemails, AI, and social media. A transformative approach to customer engagement is vital for boosting your bottom line this year. With effective communication strategies and technology-driven insights, you can revolutionize your dealership's operations and set the stage for unprecedented growth. Key Takeaways Voicemails Are Alive and Thriving: Contrary to popular belief, voicemails are a potent tool for engaging customers, as long as they are used correctly. AI as Your Secret Weapon: Leverage AI in every aspect of your dealership—from managing leads to sending perfect follow-ups. Social Media: Friend or Foe?: Embrace social platforms for what they were meant to be—social and engaging.   Voicemails: Not Just Old School, But Smart Voicemails are far from dead, especially if you know how to use them wisely. The power of a well-crafted voicemail lies in its ability to make the recipient curious enough to give you a callback. As LA Williams emphasizes, "If we could get conversations going…that's half the battle." Voicemail mastery involves not just what you say but how you say it—infusing the message with energy and a tone of trustworthiness while keeping them short and under 30 seconds. Williams further cautions against leaving dead voicemail messages. You know the ones—monotonously reminding prospects of what they already know. Instead, he advises creating valid curiosity using pointed questions. He asserts, "Tell the person that you have some key questions that you need to run by them." This technique effectively pulls the customer in and increases engagement rates. Despite the technological advancements in telecommunications, voicemail continues to be a fundamental tool in the salesperson's toolkit. With phones now transcribing voicemails into text, this feature offers a dual-engagement mode—listening and reading. The versatility of voicemails makes them an asset for reaching today's busy consumers. Harnessing the Power of AI for Lead Conversion Artificial Intelligence is not only the future; it's the present. It is a versatile tool that uniquely complements human efforts by managing leads and prompting timely follow-ups. As LA Williams introduces it, "Podium has Jerry, an AI whiz that sets up test drives, answers questions… and facilitates seamless sales." AI platforms like ChatGPT offer tailored sales messages, be they emails or text messages, carefully crafted to suit the customer's journey. The magic happens when AI is set to act like an intern—making suggestions, learning from each interaction, and evolving based on feedback. Williams shares a vivid story about how an AI app once malfunctioned, showing how deeply sales professionals rely on these tools. AI revolutionizes communication by enhancing the speed with which leads are managed. Instant responses are crucial in keeping customers warm, especially when a human may not be available to answer a call immediately. "Speed to lead is paramount," Williams reminds us, driving home the importance of fast, accurate customer service now achievable through AI integrations. Social Media Engagement: Beyond the Basics Social media isn't just another marketing tool; it's a robust platform for dynamic engagement. By presenting oneself authentically, you transform followers into raving fans. Williams explains, "From posting motivational quotes to sharing personal moments, social media should be an amalgamation of personal and professional." The strength of platforms like Facebook and Instagram lies in their capacity to humanize businesses and salespeople. Incorporating a balanced content strategy—personal, professional, purposeful, and polls—turns casual scrolls into potential sales leads. This dynamic space also represents the perfect proving ground for integrating AI-created messages. Social media's double-edged sword lies in how its ease of access can lead to lost opportunities if you aren't fully leveraging it. For car sales professionals, it serves as an extension of the dealership—bridging the gap between traditional sales techniques and the modern consumer journey. With these insights into voicemails, AI, and social media, the path to improving customer engagement and ultimately boosting sales is a journey revolving around choice and adaptation. Whether it's crafting that perfect voicemail, harnessing AI to nurture leads, or mastering the nuance of social media, each of these elements holds the potential to transform your dealership into a powerhouse. The time to act is now, and the tools you need are right at your fingertips. The future of auto sales won't wait—will you?     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

Toni's journey from a beginner to a leading salesperson showcases the monumental power of social media in sales. By cultivating a staggering 17,500 followers on her organic page, she managed to achieve an engagement level that reaches up to 300,000 people, with 90,000 directly engaging with her content. As she shares, "I have videos with up to 1.4 million views, and it's my main source of business." What sets Toni apart is not just her ability to attract followers but also her strategic use of Facebook as a revenue-generating tool, earning $1,000 to $2,000 a month from ad revenue. This showcases the potential of social media to supplement income while bolstering sales efforts. Her story is a testament to the impact of integrating social media into a sales strategy, emphasizing how platforms like Facebook can become indispensable allies in a competitive market.   The Role of Mentorship and Empowerment in Sales Success Behind every high-achieving professional is often a supportive mentor who recognized and nurtured their potential. For Toni Cornell, that mentor was her general sales manager, Harry, who not only identified her potential but also directed her towards invaluable resources to foster her growth. "I've been following it for a while. Someone just suggested it for me, and I really like the content, what you guys were about," Harry explains. Harry's approach highlights a critical element of success: empowerment. By encouraging Toni to join the "Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group," he provided her with tools that propelled her knowledge and operations beyond traditional dealership expectations. Harry describes Toni as someone who "took off with it" and transformed her online presence into a consistent source of leads, thereby enhancing dealership sales without any direct dealership expenditure. The essence of Harry's mentorship style lies in allowing salespeople to explore creative methods of growing their business while offering unwavering support. This strategy has propelled Toni to achieve remarkable feats, such as selling 51 cars in a single month. Her experience shows how encouragement and autonomy can unlock previously untapped potential within sales professionals.   Innovation: Leading the Auto Sales Industry into a New Era In a rapidly evolving automotive landscape, innovative thinking has become non-negotiable. The traditional dealership model's limitations are becoming increasingly apparent, especially when contrasted with the fresh approaches of individuals like Toni Cornell. Her story is a blueprint for those looking to thrive amidst industry changes. The proactive pursuit of alternative avenues, such as strategic social media utilization, not only fills the gaps left by traditional methods but also opens new doors for customer engagement. Harry, the GSM at her dealership, recognized this dynamic early on: "I didn't do anything with it. I didn't prospect it, I didn't work or lead. I wasn't in the CRM, didn't pay for it. It's all extra." Such forward-thinking approaches are critical, especially in an industry where to remain stagnant is to fall behind. As dealerships face tighter competition and evolving consumer expectations, integrating innovative tools like AI chatbots and personalized social media campaigns can enhance customer experience and loyalty.   Gaining Traction: Elevating Car Sales through Creativity and Community The journey depicted in this conversation serves as a powerful example of how combining social media prowess with effective mentorship can lead to unprecedented success in car sales. Toni Cornell's achievements underscore the profound impact that social media and community engagement can have on business outcomes. Her story is a reminder that in an ever-changing industry, innovation and adaptability remain the cornerstones of sustained success. Supporting team members and equipping them with the tools to thrive is not just beneficial for individual professionals; it contributes to a dealership's overall growth and resilience. As Toni continues to forge ahead, her journey inspires others to explore how they can reinvent their practices and embrace the digital age's opportunities. The account from the millionaire car sales podcast offers crucial insights into the changing automotive sales landscape. It shows that by embracing technology, mentoring talented professionals, and fostering a culture of innovation, dealerships can not only survive but thrive in a rapidly evolving marketplace.   Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through how the iPhone lineup is rumored to change after the release of the iPhone 17 lineup later this year, looking at what to expect in 2026, 2027, and beyond. Apple's recently rumored ‌iPhone‌ roadmap beyond the ‌iPhone 17‌ reveals a significant strategic shift in both release cadence and product positioning. With increasing competition, an expanding lineup, and evolving manufacturing logistics—particularly the move away from China toward production in India—Apple is exploring a staggered release schedule designed to avoid marketing fatigue and maintain focus across the six main ‌iPhone‌ models that are expected to be on sale by the end of next year. In spring 2026, Apple may introduce the "iPhone 17e" as a refresh of the lower-cost model introduced this year. The major wave of change begins in fall 2026, with the launch of the "‌iPhone‌ 18 Air," "‌iPhone‌ 18 Pro," and "‌iPhone‌ 18 Pro Max." The Pro models are expected to introduce under-display Face ID for the first time, reducing the need for a visible sensor array and leaving only a small camera hole at the top-left corner of the display. It remains unclear how this change will affect the presence or function of the Dynamic Island. Camera upgrades are also expected, including a variable aperture 48MP main lens and a likely new Samsung sensor for the ultra-wide camera. Other enhancements include Apple's in-house "C2" modem and an "A20" chip made with TSMC's upcoming 2nm process. Fall 2026 is also expected to mark the debut of Apple's first foldable ‌iPhone‌. Featuring a book-style design, the device will offer a 5.7-inch outer display and a 7.8-inch inner display. Apple reportedly aims to beat competitors with a superior hinge mechanism crafted from titanium and stainless steel, and a display with a nearly invisible crease. Unlike other flagship iPhones, the foldable model will use Touch ID embedded in the power button instead of Face ID, likely due to internal space constraints. It will also purportedly include just two rear cameras, a high-density battery, and an impressively slim profile: 4.5mm when open, and 9–9.5mm when closed. In spring 2027, the base "‌iPhone‌ 18" and "‌iPhone‌ 18e" models will follow. In fall 2027, Apple is expected to introduce the "iPhone 19 Air" with a larger display, exceeding the 6.6 inches of the previous two Air models. The "‌iPhone‌ 19 Pro" and "‌iPhone‌ 19 Pro Max"—possibly branded to mark the 20th anniversary of the iPhone—will feature a "bold" redesign, incorporating more glass and, for the first time, an under-display front camera. The result will likely be a true edge-to-edge screen without notches or cutouts, fulfilling a long-standing vision for a seamless all-display ‌iPhone‌. The second-generation foldable ‌iPhone‌ is also scheduled for fall 2027, building on the first model with further refinements and enhanced durability. While plans for spring 2028 are less concrete, it's likely that the standard "‌iPhone‌ 19" and potentially "‌iPhone‌ 19e" models will arrive then, continuing the new spring/fall rollout rhythm. Looking even further ahead, Apple's ambitions may go beyond smartphones altogether. According to remarks from Apple executive Eddy Cue this week, the ‌iPhone‌ could be obsolete within a decade, replaced by AI-powered wearables and ambient computing experiences

What happens when unstoppable determination meets next-level creativity on the sales floor? In this powerhouse episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast, Sean V. Bradley sits down with automotive sales phenom Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer—a woman who's rewriting the rules and setting new records at her Honda dealership. "Too many people are busy selling the car when they should be busy selling the appointment." — Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer From bold marketing moves to unexpected customer connection strategies, Tiffany brings an energy and perspective that will challenge everything you think you know about car sales. Her journey is real, raw, and packed with insights dealership professionals can't afford to miss. "When people tell me I can't do something... it makes me want to show everyone that I can do better than everyone else." — Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer If you're ready to think bigger, sell smarter, and stand out in your market, this episode is your blueprint. Just be warned: it might change the way you sell forever!   Key Takeaways: ✅ Innovative Marketing: Tiffany differentiates herself by using personalized postcards, lottery tickets, and relationship-building tactics to enhance customer engagement and satisfaction. ✅ Networking Strategy: Effective use of social media groups and reciprocal relationships with other local businesses boost her sales and referral network. ✅ Overcoming Challenges: Despite early gender bias, Tiffany's resilience and commitment to excellence propelled her to the top of her field. ✅ Family in Automotive Sales: Tiffany's success has inspired her daughter to follow in her footsteps, building a successful career in car sales. ✅ Focus on Customer Relations: By treating customers as friends and continually fostering these relationships, Tiffany ensures a steady stream of referrals and repeat business.   About Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer is a seasoned automotive sales professional with over 23 years of experience in the industry. Starting her career in 2001, Tiffany has demonstrated exceptional skill and resilience, transitioning from selling cars at a Honda dealership, where she is currently the top saleswoman, to becoming a notable figure in the automotive sales community. Known for her ability to sell over 60 cars in a month, Tiffany not only excels in vehicle sales but also in building meaningful customer relationships and inspiring fellow sales professionals. Her daughter, Liana Nikel, is also a talented salesperson in the automotive industry, working with GMC and achieving success early in her career!     The Path to Success: Insightful Lessons from a Female Automotive Trailblazer Key Takeaways: Embrace resilience in a challenging automotive environment, especially as a woman in a male-dominated industry. Harness innovative strategies and technology to maximize efficiency and sales outcomes. Foster invaluable networks and relationships within the industry and community for sustained success. The automotive industry, like many others, is often seen as a male-dominated space. Yet, trailblazers like Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer have shattered these perceptions, proving that women can excel and redefine success in car sales. This engaging conversation between Sean V. Bradley, LA Williams, and Tiffany reveals insightful themes centered around resilience, innovation, and networking. Each of these themes is crucial for anyone looking to thrive in the automotive sales world.   Resilience Against Industry Challenges Resilience is a recurring theme throughout the transcript. Tiffany's journey in the automotive industry wasn't smooth from the outset. Her initial challenge was during a job interview with a BMW dealership, where her potential was prematurely judged based on her gender. "The manager walked in, saw I was a female, and walked right back out," she reflects, with a sense of triumph over what would have discouraged many. Such prejudices, unfortunately, aren't rare. Many women in various industries face similar biases. Tiffany's story serves as an inspiring testimony that challenges are not roadblocks but stepping stones to success. Her approach is clear: "Pretty funny because that honestly gives me more drive. When people tell me I can't do something…it makes me want to show everyone that I can do better than everyone else." The broader implication is a call for resilience in the face of unfair treatment and stereotypes, advocating for perseverance and persistence. Tiffany's success speaks to those who doubt their capabilities in overcoming industry-specific hurdles and provides a beacon of hope for aspiring female professionals.   Leveraging Innovative Strategies and Technology Innovation, especially in terms of leveraging tools and personal strategies, is crucial for sustained success in the automotive industry. Tiffany illustrates a clear understanding of how standing out requires more than just conventional techniques. She asserts, "I always wanted to be different than everyone else because that's what makes you successful." Her use of handwritten postcards, light-hearted lottery tickets, and the creation of evidence manuals highlights a sophisticated approach to building relationships and enhancing customer engagement. She explains, "People don't like to open up envelopes, you know, too much. So, I really feel that if you have it on a postcard and they get it in the mail, they're going to read it right away." Additionally, there's an emphasis on the integration of technology and automation in streamlining operations. Bradley's advice regarding AI underscores the importance of embracing technological advancements. "I would love to be able to promote your business," Tiffany concurs, signaling an openness to adopting innovative tools that can further accentuate her already effective strategies. Such tools can increase productivity and allow industry professionals to scale their efforts, revealing the potential impact of technology on sales efficiency.   Building Networks for Long-term Success Networking within the industry and broader community is an essential element of Tiffany's success story. Her strategy in creating valuable, sustained relationships lays the foundation for reliable referrals and repeat business. Her community engagement, characterized by distributing business cards with donuts to banks and clothing stores, exemplifies her proactive approach to fostering relationships. "Basically, I have just…one big friendship because they'll know who to call when they need a car," she shares, underscoring the importance of turning customers into long-term allies and advocates. This relational approach allows her to close a significant number of referral-based deals each month and steadily build her reputation. Professionals in the automotive industry can learn from Tiffany's approach to networking. By developing reciprocal relationships, such as with mortgage brokers and real estate agents, sales associates can create a widened network of potential customers and referrers. The broader implication here is the undeniable value of community integration and professional alliances in achieving robust, long-term success. Without limiting herself to traditional norms, Tiffany has utilized a combination of personal initiative, relationship-building, and innovative thinking to redefine success in the automotive world. For emerging and seasoned professionals alike, her approach presents actionable insights: aim for excellence irrespective of prejudice, employ technology to enhance efforts, and cultivate indispensable networks. Through these insights, Tiffany Jean Haggerty-Kruzer not only stands as a model for female empowerment but also as a luminary for all who strive to excel in the automotive sales industry.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

In this powerful episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, hosted by Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams, we bring in a special guest: Penny Vettel-Diersing! Penny shares her extensive experience in auto dealership marketing, starting with a breakdown of intelligent lead routing within the BDC and why customized communication strategies are critical for maximizing every lead opportunity.  "What value before you click send, on a text, on a chat, on an email, what value are you giving to the customer." The conversation then leads to Penny's innovative take on digital marketing, Google tagging, and advanced analytics — showing how dealerships can move beyond simple reply metrics to truly measure the value of every communication effort. And her #1 success in her dealership - Text messaging! "A successful text campaign isn't about the reply count. It's about the action a customer takes after getting your text." If you're ready to sharpen your marketing, drive more meaningful engagement, and rethink how you track success, this episode is a must-listen!   Key Takeaways: ✅ Intelligent Lead Routing: Penny emphasizes the importance of routing leads based on dealer expertise to boost sales efficacy rather than the traditional round-robin method. ✅ Text Communication vs. Marketing: The distinction between communication and marketing was highlighted by Penny, as she proposed data-driven, actionable strategies for improving dealership engagement. ✅ AI-Powered Marketing Tools: The use of technology, particularly AI like Google Gemini, provides cutting-edge solutions for marketing strategies under fluctuating market conditions, improving customer interaction. ✅ Value over Engagement: Penny argues that effective communication should aim to drive customer action rather than merely waiting for a reply, revolutionizing standard dealership practices. ✅ Google Tagging Efficiency: Implementing URL tagging in communications not only tracks engagement but provides essential insight into the effectiveness of each marketing campaign.   About Penny Vettel-Diersing Penny Vettel-Diersing, is a 27-year automotive industry veteran who has mastered digital marketing, business development, and sales strategies! Penny began her automotive career in 1998 at Reynolds & Reynolds, where she specialized in web-based internet lead software, programs, and processes. In 2002, she moved into retail and began building and running business development centers. Since then, her career has expanded to include digital marketing strategies. She manages the sales process from advertising to business development (and everything in between)! Penny is a published author writing: Texts That Sell: How Modern Text Strategies Can Revolutionize Sales Engagement in Automotive Retail!   Inside the Dealer's Mind: Innovative Strategies for Success in the Automotive Industry   Key Takeaways: Strategic Communication: Crafting text marketing campaigns with value-driven calls to action is crucial for engagement and conversion. Intelligent Lead Routing: Tailoring lead allocation based on individual agent expertise can significantly enhance dealership performance and customer satisfaction. Leveraging Technology: Utilizing AI and analytics tools can provide deeper insights and improve marketing outcomes.   Transforming Communication Strategies in the Auto Industry In the fast-evolving landscape of the automotive industry, staying ahead hinges on the ability to embrace innovative communication strategies. Penny Vettel-Diersing, a veteran with 27 years of industry experience, shares a profound insight into how text communication and marketing techniques can redefine dealership success. "You never send a text message to a customer that doesn't give them something exciting to do," Penny emphasizes. This approach not only encourages engagement, but also empowers potential buyers with actionable information. Through the strategic use of Google Tagging and analytics, dealerships can track customer actions, gaining insights into what works and what doesn't. Penny states, "I want to know if they actually did it right… I take that tiny URL and when you click it, I see what you're doing on my website." By focusing on the actions that customers take rather than merely their replies, dealerships can refine their strategies to maximize conversions. This shift in perspective allows dealers to offer solutions tailored to the unique needs of each customer, driving both engagement and sales. Overall, the emphasis on creating value before clicking send and adopting a detailed approach to text communication highlights a pivotal change. Texts should be more than mere messages—they should be dynamic touchpoints that bring meaningful value to the customer. With this strategy, dealerships can foster stronger relationships and enhance customer loyalty. Intelligent Lead Routing: The Path to Empowerment The whirlwind of leads that dealerships manage can often become chaotic without a structured strategy. Penny's approach to intelligent lead routing serves as a beacon of efficiency. By recognizing and capitalizing on the unique strengths of each team member, dealerships can align customer needs with the right expertise. "A lot of dealers want to try to have the government cheese mentality… here's a lead for you, here's a lead for you," remarks Sean V. Bradley. By implementing a system of intelligent lead routing, dealers can customize the lead allocation process. This ensures that opportunities are distributed based on proven strengths, allowing the most capable agents to handle specific customer inquiries. This targeted approach eliminates the pressure of trying to fit a square peg in a round hole and instead nurtures precision and efficacy. The use of intelligent lead routing establishes a comprehensive understanding that each lead requires a distinct approach, aligning resources to meet customer expectations effectively. Beyond improving operational efficiency, this strategy nurtures personal growth within the sales team, transforming the mindset from mere opportunity handling to strategic problem-solving. With detailed insights into their performance, agents can continuously refine their skills, enhancing overall dealership performance. Capitalizing on Technology for Success The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and analytics is an evolving force with the potential to redefine success in automotive marketing. As Penny illustrates, leveraging AI tools like Google Gemini can uncover valuable insights, generating innovative approaches to customer communication. Through AI-generated strategies and templates, dealerships can streamline the creation and deployment of marketing campaigns, amplifying their effectiveness. The power of AI lies in its ability to deliver personalized and insightful information rapidly. "You know, you have to take the high road," Penny notes, stressing the importance of communicating with confidence and competence. By automating repetitive tasks and uncovering hidden patterns, AI enables dealerships to focus their energy on nurturing meaningful connections with potential buyers. The use of analytics tools, such as Google Tag Manager, complements AI, allowing dealerships to measure the success of their campaigns with precision. By integrating tagging and analytics, dealerships can gain visibility into the customer journey, monitor their interactions, and make data-driven decisions that optimize future efforts. This fusion of technology empowers dealers with the knowledge to not only meet but exceed customer expectations, ensuring continued success. Reflecting on Innovative Dealership Practices The insights shared by Penny Vettel-Diersing and Sean V. Bradley emphasize the transformative power of innovative strategies in the automotive industry. By redefining communication strategies, dealerships can engage potential buyers with purpose, creating value-driven interactions that foster engagement and loyalty. Emphasizing intelligent lead routing ensures that each prospect is matched with the right expertise, enhancing customer satisfaction and sales team efficiency. Leveraging AI and analytics technology transforms marketing efforts, delivering targeted insights and enabling data-driven decision-making. These strategies illustrate a holistic approach to dealership success. By integrating these techniques, dealerships can adapt to changing customer preferences, capitalize on technological advancements, and forge deeper connections with their customers. As the automotive landscape continues to evolve, dealerships equipped with these innovative practices will be poised to navigate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.   Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we take a look at the rumored design of the iPhone 17 "Air" and iPadOS 19's major productivity update. We take a closer look at the rumored design of the ‌iPhone 17‌ "Air," which is expected to introduce a radically thinner design. It is rumored to be as thin as 5.5mm, versus the 8.725mm thickness of the Pro models. It has now emerged that even the buttons will need to be thinner than those used on the other models to simply fit on the device. We also discuss the rumored "Sky Blue" color option for the iPhone 17 Pro and ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ Max, which bears a resemblance to the "Sierra Blue" of the iPhone 13 Pro. Sky Blue was first introduced on the M4 MacBook Air earlier this year. Moreover, we talk through the purported "Midnight" colorway for the Apple Vision "Air." Meanwhile, iPadOS 19 is expected to bring a major software upgrade to the iPad. The update is expected to make the ‌iPad‌ more "macOS-like," with improved productivity, multitasking, and window management

In the latest episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, hosts Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams explore the transformative role of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems in the automotive industry alongside Greg Becker, Chief Product Officer at NCC / ProMax.  "CRM fatigue is running rampant in the industry, but there's a smarter way to sell cars." With an authentic background in both dealership management and technology, Greg offers practical insights into leveraging CRM tools to enhance customer engagement and maximize dealership profitability. This episode is particularly pertinent given the current concerns within the industry regarding tariffs and their potential impact on pricing, inventory, and dealership operations. “You can't put a price tag on experience...

Adapting to Tariff Induced Changes: With impending tariffs, dealerships need proactive strategies to adapt and thrive, including leveraging CRM tools for better financial foresight and customer relations. Utilizing AI and Technological Innovations: The automotive industry can benefit significantly from integrating advanced AI solutions within their CRMs, improving lead management and customer engagement.   Navigating Tariffs and Their Impact on the Automotive Industry Businesses across the globe are buzzing with concerns over tariffs and their potential repercussions. As Sean V. Bradley insightfully points out, "Fear and uncertainty breeds chaos… People are consuming fear." The automotive industry is no exception, facing the dual challenges of increasing vehicle prices and an anxious consumer base. The key to overcoming these hurdles lies in adapting existing practices and embracing change. The first step is acknowledging that tariffs may indeed lead to skyrocketed costs of vehicles and parts, affecting both import and floor plan expenses. Sean accurately assesses that fear-induced actions, akin to Florida's hurricane preparations or the pandemic's toilet paper rush, could lead to unnecessary chaos. Instead, dealerships should direct their focus towards controllable elements such as refining sales strategies and maximizing their existing assets. Greg Becker, an industry veteran, highlights the industry's resilience and adaptability. "The automotive industry is one of the most resilient… it's here," he states, underlining the importance of proactive strategies. By revisiting existing client interactions and utilizing CRM systems effectively, dealerships can tap into previously missed opportunities. Revisiting leads from the previous week could uncover potential sales amidst the tariff turmoil, ensuring a steady customer flow. Focus should also be redirected to used cars with vehicle acquisition strategies and engaging with past clients through innovative campaigns.   CRM Customization: A Game-Changer for Dealerships In an ever-evolving market landscape, customizing CRM systems akin to NCC's Complete CRM can be a pivotal differentiator. With years of hands-on experience in the automotive industry, Greg Becker underscores the importance of a customized CRM solution that resonates with the dealership's culture. "We create solutions from a different perspective… a big difference between providing technology solutions and people solutions," Greg articulates. By tailoring CRM settings to replicate a dealership's internal culture and operations, automotive enterprises can enhance user adoption and efficiency. This encompasses everything from allowing personalization in system navigation to meaningful data segmentation strategies. Promax, spearheaded by Greg, shines as an exemplar by offering dashboards tailor-made for diverse roles, streamlining task management and bolstering productivity. This bespoke approach in CRM enables users to land on fully customized environments conducive to their daily operations, eliminating friction and optimizing work processes. Greg aptly notes, "If they can't get to it quick, they're going to bow out," emphasizing the crucial role of ease and efficiency. Such an integrated, user-friendly approach not only boosts individual productivity but ultimately amplifies the dealership's overall operational efficacy.   Embracing Artificial Intelligence for Enhanced Lead Management Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries, and within the automotive sector, its integration within CRM systems holds immense promise. AI-driven data mining and predictive analytics offer dealerships the power to refine their lead management actions, drawing insights from CRM data seamlessly. As Greg shares, "We leverage AI… from a recommendation perspective," signifying the role of intelligence in refining dealership offerings. Further blending AI with CRM, as suggested by Sean, opens the possibilities for revolutionizing customer communication through automated video messages. These AI-generated communications can play a pivotal role in promotional strategies and maintaining customer retention amid the tariff blues. By adopting advanced AI solutions that align cohesively with CRM frameworks, dealerships can bolster customer interaction and streamline conversions. Moreover, such AI tools provide laser-sharp focus in understanding customer temperament and preferences, paving the way to more personalized, successful negotiations that benefit both dealerships and customers. As dealerships explore and invest in these intelligent solutions, they step towards a future that is not only efficient but also customer-centric.   Maximizing Customer Relationships in Uncertain Times A dealership's current customer database holds incredible potential. In a world filled with uncertainty, whether due to tariffs or economic shifts, nurturing these relationships can provide a valuable buffer. As Greg Becker elucidates, "An average CRM database has 10,000 customers… that's a $10 million investment." Dealers should capitalize on this investment, targeting tailored, data-driven campaigns for existing clientele that could lead to profitable returns. To mine this gold, dealerships must look beyond the notion of direct sales investment, placing substantial effort into forging and sustaining long-term customer relationships. By aligning marketing campaigns through CRM insights directly with customer proclivities, dealerships will not only reinforce current relationships but also foster opportunities for referrals and repeat business. Investing in CRM customization and AI solutions ensures a flexible framework that adapts to changing market dynamics and transcends anticipated challenges. The implementation of efficient data segmentation, through integrated AI analysis, allows dealerships to revitalize engagement strategies and maintain consumer trust and loyalty during pressing times. In these challenging times for the automotive sector, industry professionals like Greg Becker and Sean V. Bradley provide valuable insights into utilizing customer relationship management systems to navigate the upheavals convincingly. By integrating technological innovation, fostering existing relationships, and understanding market dynamics, dealerships can endure and thrive amidst any industry hurdles, truly cementing their position in the future battleground of automotive sales.       Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.
