Running a dealership today is more complex than ever. Between managing sales, service, parts, inventory, accounting, and customer expectations, many dealers find themselves juggling disconnected systems that slow teams down and limit visibility.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce the 2026 Dealer Insights Series a new webinar series designed specifically for dealers who are evaluating or searching for a comprehensive Dealer Management Solution (DMS).

This educational series is built to help dealership leaders understand what modern, connected operations should look like and how the right DMS can simplify workflows, improve efficiency, and support long-term growth.

What Is the Dealer Insights Series?

The Dealer Insights Series is a five-part webinar series focused on the real operational challenges dealers face every day. Each session is designed to stand on its own, while also contributing to a broader understanding of how dealerships can operate more efficiently with the right systems in place.

These webinars are ideal for:

  • Owners and General Managers
  • Operations and Service leaders
  • Dealers evaluating new DMS platforms
  • Dealers looking to replace disconnected or legacy systems

Rather than focusing on features alone, each webinar centers on outcomes—how dealerships can reduce friction, improve visibility, and create a better experience for both staff and customers.

What Dealers Will Learn

Across the 2026 series, attendees will explore topics such as:

  • End-to-end dealership operations and why siloed systems create unnecessary complexity
  • Operational efficiency and how connected workflows impact profitability
  • Scaling without chaos, especially as dealerships grow locations, volume, or service demand
  • Using data to make better decisions, not just collect reports, but understand the reports and actions to take
  • Preparing for change, from market shifts to evolving customer expectations

Each session combines best practices, real-world examples, and practical guidance to help dealers evaluate what they truly need from a DMS.
