Description

Selling more cars isn't for the faint of heart. It requires daily commitment, discipline, and genuine human connection.

In this episode, my guest is Jean-Pierre Lacroix, president and founder of SLD, a global branding firm that’s spent more than 30 years helping businesses win customers by tapping into what really drives decisions: emotion. He’s the author of Think Blink Manifesto, a book that lays out seven powerful ways brands can create lasting connections in an instant.

We get into some big questions: Why do people buy cars the way they do? What makes one automotive brand feel worth a premium while another has to compete on price? How can dealerships go beyond features and functions to deliver experiences that customers actually remember?

Layer on how quickly technology is evolving with artificial intelligence. What are the implications and will car buyers want more technology assisted experiences or more genuine human connection experiences during the car sales process? We get into this and so much more during this episode of The Dealer Playbook.

Jean-Pierre Lacroix shares surprising insights about major automotive brands like Volvo, BMW, and Jeep and reveals the most underrated sales tool in the entire retail automotive industry. He shares why this one tweak will help with customer retention, lifetime value, and brand loyalty.

If you’ve ever wondered why car shoppers say one thing but choose another, this episode will change the way you think about the entire buying experience.
