#autocon 2012

Automotive Internet Sales and BDC Expert Stan Sher, of Dealer eTraining will be a featured speaker at AutoCon 2012 conference in Las Vegas at the Aria Hotel and Casino on September 5-8, 2012.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Free-Press-Release.com) September 2, 2012 -- Stan Sher, president of Dealer eTraining and editor for automotiveinternetsales.com will be facilitating a session on "The Evolution of the BDC" at the upcoming AutoCon 2012 conference in Las Vegas, NV.

Sher brings almost 10 years experience working in the automotive industry with 8 years in retail holding positions from sales consultant to executive eCommerce and BDC director. As a consultant Stan Sher and Dealer eTraining have helped many dealerships achieve Internet Sales and BDC success by providing thorough research and implementation of customized fine tuned processes designed for the success of the individual dealership. An example of Stan Sher's success is outlined by the recent improvements that Apple Honda of Riverhead, NY had seen. Dealer eTraining helped grow the BDC from producing 30 units per month to over 52 units per month with a gross profit of $140,000+ every single month. Eric Nichols, BDC Director of Apple Honda says, "Stan Sher came in helped my dealership articulate and implement the things that I was only dreaming could be done". He added that "At first when we met I did not think much improvement could be done. However, within 30-60 days I saw a major improvement. Now my dealer has more buy in and I am able to continue working to make the dealership successful"

Stan Sher will be discussing the reasons why the BDC department is important as well as how to create custom processes that dealerships need to implement for handling internet leads, incoming sales calls, unsold showroom traffic, lease retention, and owner loyalty. As a subject matter expert, Stan speaks at numerous events including the upcoming Internet Sales 20 Group in Chicago in October. In addition, he is a resident facilitator at the Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association where he teaches monthly workshops that include sales, internet sales, BDC, social media, and digital marketing training for local dealer employees. Ralph Paglia, the organizer for AutoCon 2012 says, "I have been following Stan's career for a few years now. He is very process driven and is great at what he does. I am excited to have Stan Sher be a speaker at AutoCon".
