AUSTIN, Texas — RoadVantage, a provider of F&I programs for the automotive industry, today marked its second anniversary by announcing two expansion moves aimed at fueling its continued growth.
RoadVantage announced that it has moved into larger offices to accommodate increased staff and volume. The company also announced two new additions to its executive team. Joining the company is Reese Hillard, who will serve as senior vice president, and Randy Ross, who will serve as senior vice president of sales.
“With Garret Lacour, co-founder and former CEO of IAS, at the helm, RoadVantage entered the F&I ancillary products market with a bang two years ago and has been blazing new trails ever since,” said Hillard, who bring more than three decades of industry experience. “RoadVantage is setting a new industry standard in F&I, and I’m pleased to be part of that.”
Ross, a 34-year industry veteran, added: “With RoadVantage’s progressive approach to F&I — superior products, assured compliance, an innovative approach to claims, best practices in customer service — the company is primed for continued success. I’m honored to lead the sales efforts for RoadVantage as we enter this next phase of growth.”
The company also announced it has expanded its online training and has begun hosting webinars on topics such as reducing claims fatigue. The company also continually evolves and expands its F&I product line to provide dealers and agents with a full portfolio of standalone and bundled programs.
“It’s been exciting to witness the company’s consistent growth these last two years. It demonstrates the F&I market was ready for an innovative provider,” said Garret Lacour, founder and CEO of RoadVantage. “This most recent expansion enables us to take it to the next level.”
