QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
WITH ANDREA BRIMMER

WE'VE SEEN A DIGITAL REVOLUTION IN THE WAY
PEOPLE SHOP FOR CARS AND, INCREASINGLY, IN
HOW THEY PURCHASE CARS. HOW WELL IS THE INDUSTRY
ADJUSTING TO THESE NEW WAYS OF REACHING CUSTOMERS
AND SELLING VEHICLES?
ANDREA BRIMMER: Across the dealer body, there are some
who understand it and whole companies building around that
model-companies like Carvana and Shift who understand
that this is not something that is going to go away but only will
continue to grow. Whether it's millennials or Gen Z, digital is
how they interact with brands, how they shop and how they
think about all forms of retailing. It's going to fully impact car
buying, and dealers have to get out in front of it.

WHAT ARE THE AREAS DEALERS STILL NEED TO TACKLE
IN TERMS OF DIGITAL RETAILING?
BRIMMER: First, better sophistication in terms of digital
marketing. We are living our lives online. And every interaction
we have-every like, every share, every follow, every shopping
interaction-is a data point that's being collected. Those
data points allow marketers to have a significant level of
sophistication and precision and efficiency from a marketing
perspective. Dealers have a variety of levels of engagement in
that space. Because it's complicated and constantly changing,
if you don't have a good digital marketing expert or a good
digital marketing agency to advise you, that's a place where you
can fall behind.
