BLACK FRIDAY PUSHBACK, BABY!
Question: Who’s ready for some Turkey and some deals
Answer: Everyone
There are so many good things happening within dealerships across the country as our industry steps up to the line to go toe-to-toe with some of the greatest challenges of our time.
We just launched sales of the “PUSH BACK” swag featured at our live event. The quality Ts and Hats are great gifts...even before Christmas! You can use promo code ‘BLACKFRIDAY’ to get 40% off through Monday. Get it here.
Now onto the meal… but as an appetizer, check out this little fireball from ASOTU Alum, Brian Benstock.
We’re VERY Thankful for YOU!
