In the past few sessions we have had some super guests discussing some insanely valuable strategies and tactics. 

In episode 49 “The Sales Lion” Marcus Sheridan said we need to be the “Wikipedia” of what we do. He dove into how big of a mistake dealers are making buy allowing the Edmunds and Cars.com etc. produce all the content.
