HOUSTON — The National Alliance of Buy Here, Pay Here Dealers has released the final agenda for its inaugural East Coast conference. The event will be held November 6–8, 2011, at the Georgia International Convention Center in Atlanta.
The agenda is divided into two tracks; one each for new and experienced operators. The roster of speakers includes many of the nation’s leading experts as well as working dealers. Each is designed to be interactive, with opportunities for question-and-answer exchanges.
“This conference is for anyone who is interested in being successful in BHPH today!” said NABD founder and show chair Ken Shilson. “In fact, that is our conference theme.”
The agenda is primarily focused on compliance, capital and inventory. The event’s show floor will include several new capital providers, which should be a draw for dealers who are seeking financing for new or existing operations.
