In the coming year, dealers must align their longstanding business practices with these new innovations to keep margins high, deliver excellent customer satisfaction and be ready for another round of unexpected challenges.

During this panel discussion featuring a powersports dealer, a dealership strategy consultant, and a technology expert, you'll learn how your dealership can:
