In addition to all Industry Summit, Compliance Summit, and P&A Leadership Summit sessions; networking opportunities, meals and receptions in the exhibit hall, the Technology Challenge, and for the first time, an educational tract dedicated to reinsurance, purchasing a full show pass also grants access to “Ask Frenchy” and the Industry Summit Honors, including Dealer of the Year.

Ahead of the event, attendees are encouraged to submit objections or questions for the “Ask Frenchy” contest. “Ask Frenchy” is sponsored by IAS and hosted by the company’s vice president of sales and veteran F&I trainer Eric “Frenchy” Mélon. The contest invites F&I managers and directors to share the most challenging objection or question posed to them by a customer.

Five finalists will be selected to participate in a live training session and competition at Industry Summit; each will be offered free registration and accommodations at the New Orleans Marriott.
