Prank Calling Automotive Experts

Diving into session 60 of “The Dealer Playbook” Podcast and we are so excited you are here! 

In this session we have decided to shake it up a tad and do something new. 

We compiled 5 amazing professionals in the auto industry and we call them on the fly and ask them just one question. The best part is none of them knew we were going to be calling.

This session was lots of fun and is something we will definitely be doing again in the future.
