The craze over BDC development continues, as dealers across America look to their BDC departments or providers to take the share of the market to meet dealer targets. That’s why BDC has been its own department since the beginning of its time. The industry leaders and OEMs assessed the process of sales and service and sought counsel on determining what the right person is for BDC development. Dr. John Mlinarcik, Phd, LMSW, helped the industry in its early stages with the understanding of right brain and left brain, and how by understanding those principles you can place the right person in the right job. Business Development Centers. (BDC) have seen changes in media mix and technologies over what is now almost two decades of development. The panel hosted by Richie Bello, Founder and CTO at ShopSmartAutos, has brought together Dr. John Mlinarcik and other BDC influencers who deal with BDC every day such as Greg Wells, Stan Henry, and Anthony Alagona. The program will be narrated by David Castillo, Director of Veteran Affairs for Richie Bello Institute of Leadership and Management. ShopSmartAutos is now providing support for veterans looking to buy a vehicle from a “Veteran Friendly” dealership that supports our veterans with programs available through OEMs and major players. The non-profit will also train and place veterans into the industry at “Veteran Friendly” dealers at no cost to the dealer. The program looks to support the veterans, while offering this to dealers at no cost when active as a ShopSmartAuto dealer.
