DIRECTORY OF ADVERTISERS One of the rewards my position offers is to stay in touch with dealers and vendors from around the country. I have just returned from The Digital Dealer Conference in Tampa Florida and as usual I have come away with a fresh perspective of the auto business today. Technology is dramatically changing the auto business and dealers who adopt to these changes will have a very bright future ahead of them. Who would have imagined, even just a few years ago, that customers would be placing their orders directly to the manufacturers from their cell phones or scheduling maintenance visits to your service departments through artificial intelligence? Today's technology allows dealership employees to focus on more challenging tasks that will further grow revenue producing business. The one thing that was very evident is that you as a dealer cannot do these tasks yourself. You need trusted technology partners who will show you how to make the technology work for you. Shows like Digital Dealer can help you find those trusted partners. In the coming issues of Fixed Ops Magazine, we will share insightful information about the technology available today as well as what is coming soon. The beauty of our magazine is that you can read and assimilate the information at your own speed and not feel pressured by a vendor to have you decide quickly. Let's work together to find ways to make your store the best it can be. DIRECTORY OF ADVERTISERS ADMI ASI Doors BanaLogic / BODYGUARD BendPak / Autostacker BG Products, Inc.
