DrivingSales created the Innovation Cup Awards to recognize solutions introduced or enhanced in 2013 whose innovative approaches have produced significant results for dealers. Dealership solution-providers submitted applications online, vendor names were blanked out, and a panel of dealer judges selected the finalists. Finalists will present their solution on stage for the dealer panel and attendees at the DSES on Monday, October 14th.
"The Innovation Cup Award represents one of the highest accolades our industry has to offer its dealership solution providers: the vote of those who understand its benefits the most—auto dealers," said DrivingSales Founder and CEO Jared Hamilton. "We congratulate DealerSocket on being named a finalist for The Innovation Cup Award from a field of outstanding applicants and look forward to sharing Enterprise Dashboard Reporting's progressive solution with attendees at the DrivingSales Executive Summit."
The Innovation Cup Award competition is part of an exciting DSES lineup this year, which includes high-profile keynotes from former U.S. Navy SEAL Officer and decorated combat veteran, Leif Babin; global search marketing authority Danny Sullivan, and The Walt Disney Company®, as well as nineteen dealer-selected breakout sessions from industry experts and dealers on topics ranging from CRM, digital marketing, fixed ops, hiring, creating a culture of success, selling pre-owned vehicles, leveraging 'big data,' video and more.
Focused on providing the most relevant profit-building information to help auto dealers formulate their business plans for the following year, the DrivingSales Executive Summit includes three days of collaboration and fresh, leading-edge information from special-topic breakouts, expert panels, dealer and vendor contests, and world-renowned speakers. The DSES is 100% dealer driven and designed specifically for the most advanced dealer principals and dealership executives in the industry.
