Velocity 2.0: Paint, Pixels, & Profitability
Velocity 2.0 begins with the recognition that today’s used vehicle marketplace is more challenging and volatile than it’s ever been – a tough reality driven by the power of the Internet and a troubled economy. The book offers a playbook of best practices to help dealers overcome obstacles and outpace their competition.
“Our industry is at a critical crossroads where mere survival is an open question,” Pollak says. “Velocity 2.0 offers a roadmap to help dealerships harness the latest technology and management philosophies that reduce market risks and pave the way for long-term success.”
Velocity 2.0: Paint, Pixels, & Profitability is available at Amazon.com and considered a “must” read for the nation’s more than 60,000 franchised and independent used vehicle dealers and their sales personnel. Pollak’s first book, Velocity, sold more than 10,000 copies, a milestone reached by very few business authors.
