The Alpha Dawg will return to Industry Summit to deliver his two-day training seminar, which will cover topics related to sales, F&I, BDC and Internet department management. The training seminar is included with the purchase of a full conference pass.
LAS VEGAS — Industry Summit 2015 will feature Jim Ziegler and his Profit Masters training seminar. During the two-day event, the Alpha Dawg will deliver his Sales Manager’s Forum and Samurai F&I seminar, as well as his famous “How to Work a Car Deal” presentation.
Ziegler will take to the stage on Tuesday, Sept. 8, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., and on Wednesday, Sept. 9, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. His event, which is valued at $1,500, is included in the price of an Industry Summit full conference pass.
“The Alpha Dawg has promised to rip back the curtains on strategies that made him a record-setting manager and helped his clients achieve the big numbers,” said David Gesualdo, publisher of Auto Dealer Today and F&I and Showroom magazines. “These are sessions thousands of dealers, managers and industry executives have paid $1,500 to attend, but we’re including this two-day seminar with a full conference pass.”
Ziegler, who pens Auto Dealer Today and F&I and Showroom’s monthly On the Point column, will delve into F&I presentation techniques and product-moving word-tracks. He will also touch on sales manager topics, such as planning, evaluating, coordinating and organizing a sales department.
The two-day seminar will also cover the new technology-driven road to a sale. Ziegler will offer his advice on Internet department and business development center integration, as well as share key sales management word-tracks.
“If you’re a salesperson or F&I manager who aspires to be a sales manager, general sales manager or general manager, you can’t afford to miss this seminar,” said Gregory Arroyo, editorial director of F&I and Showroom magazine.
