🇺🇸 SPONSOR & SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT 🇺🇸
Some companies sell software.
Some companies build products.
And then there are companies that help shape the future of an industry.
That is why I am incredibly proud to announce that DriveCentric is once again returning as a sponsor of By Appointment Only Volume 4: BEHIND THE YES, and that Steve Roessler will once again be taking the stage.
From the very beginning, Steve and the DriveCentric team have been supporters of our mission. Long before By Appointment Only became what it is today, they believed in the vision, the people, and the importance of bringing our industry together to learn, grow, and challenge one another.
That support has never gone unnoticed.
In a conference centered around hospitality, relationships, and understanding what happens Behind The YES, there are few voices better suited for this conversation than Steve Roessler.
What I have always respected most about Steve is that he understands something many people overlook:
Technology should never replace hospitality. It should amplify it.
Because behind every lead, every text message, every phone call, every appointment, and every sale is a human being looking to be understood.
That philosophy is one of the reasons DriveCentric has become one of the most respected technology companies in automotive retail.
As CEO, Steve has helped challenge conventional thinking and redefine how dealerships communicate with consumers. But what makes his leadership special is that he has never lost sight of the human side of the business.
🔥 Innovation matters. Process matters. Technology matters. But people matter most. 🔥
Over the years, Steve has become much more than a sponsor and speaker. He has become a friend, a trusted voice, and someone I genuinely enjoy learning from whenever our paths cross. His willingness to share ideas, challenge assumptions, and push our industry forward has made a lasting impact on countless dealerships, leaders, and teams.
That is exactly why I am excited to welcome him back to our stage.
Steve, thank you for your friendship, your support of Appointments That Show, your support of By Appointment Only, and your continued commitment to helping dealers create better experiences for their customers.
We are honored to have DriveCentric back as a sponsor.
We are excited to have you back as a speaker.
And we are grateful to have you as part of this community.
Because at the end of the day, every YES begins with a conversation.
Please join me in welcoming a returning sponsor, a returning speaker, a friend of ATS, and one of the most respected innovators in automotive retail…
