Ward’s Spring Training 2009

Ward’s Automotive Spring Training Conference

Ward’s wants to invite you to join them in Tampa, FL, March 15-17 for the second annual Ward’s Automotive Spring Training Conference.

Last year’s conference was a hit, and deemed by participants as one of the premier events of the year.

We know that with all of the uncertainty surrounding the automotive industry, this is a tough time to be thinking about a conference.

But we also know, dealers will be selling cars in the future.

And Ward’s wants to help you get — not only your fair share — but your unfair share of the market.

That means this is one conference you can’t afford to miss.

In addition to exciting keynote speakers, they have designed informative workshops with the newest marketing strategies for dealers and general managers.

Most of this information is stuff your agencies don’t even know yet.

Create the 21st century marketing department by showing you how to weave the power of the Web throughout all of your advertising efforts.

So make sure you’re in a position to hit a home run in 2009.

Visit us at www.wardsauto.com/springtraining to register.

See you in Tampa!

  • Leaving Customers Unattended In Showroom
    So I was listening to the radio this morning (I know, very old school of me) and they were discussing that the modern car-shopper (when left unattended) in a showroom after a deal has begun, it gives them time to pull out their phones, have discussions with friends, family, or even make a post...

  • Digital Retailing: I want...
    One of the (very) few things I learned as a product manager for an Agile software development tech company was how to write "stories."

That being said, many (if not most) of the dealers I interact with are so busy whining about all these new consumer resources (i.e. Carguru & KBB); That they, in-turn, end up... Inventory […]
