Integrated Dealer Systems (IDS) is creating a dealer knowledge-sharing community with its new program.
The IDS Dealership Insights Forum will premiere at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time April 26. The monthly online forum will be a space where dealers can discuss market trends, share best practices and gain insight on running operations.
IDS Content Marketing Manager Sara McGuire said, “We want to create a community where dealers can have friendly, focused and insightful conversations around market trends and best practices.”
The forum will be led by IDS Senior Consultant Don Miller. Miller has more than 30 years of industry experience. He specializes in data analysis and dealer data education. Miller created the IDS Repair Event Cycle Time (RECT) Report.
He will lead discussions with data from IDS’ Monthly Dealer Insights Report. Topics will be centered on RECT, sales, warranty, technology innovations and customer engagement strategies. The forum will frequently feature guest speakers.
Miller said, “Any opportunity for dealers to share ideas and to learn what is working for their peers can be very valuable. We are hoping that our Dealership Insights Forum will provide such an opportunity.”
The forum will take place at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time on Fridays each month. In addition to the first meeting, sessions are scheduled for May 24 and June 21. Any industry member is welcome to join.
