Today’s guest is betting $250M on a major shift in automotive retail: Recently, I sat down with Brian MacDonald, CEO of CDK Global, to get a bird’s eye view of the car market and chat about everything from last year’s cyberattack to F&I pain points. 1. The future of the market under Trump’s 2nd term. – The biggest impact from the 2024 election is how manufacturers will pursue electrification. – Many automakers are already shifting their EV plans to focus more on hybrids. – Bigger dealers are focusing on consolidation. 2. AI is useless without data. – AI solutions need data in order to work, but data is often too fragmented to be useful. – Dealers need solutions that place all their data under one umbrella, allowing AI to get the full picture. 3. Software is being simplified. – Dealer tools are becoming more streamlined, allowing them to use a small number of different programs rather than many. – As platforms continue to consolidate, the need for software add-ons will likely decline. – However, there will always be entrepreneurs looking for ways to innovate, so additional software will never go away. 4. Meet the customer where they want to be met. – Modern retailing allows customers to complete parts of the car buying process online. – Dealers will need to evolve so that they can pick up the process in-store at whatever point the customer stopped online. 5. F&I is a big pain point but solutions are hard to come by. – Many dealers are reluctant to change their F&I approach since it’s a major profit driver. – But customers are having to spend more time at the F&I desk due to affordability challenges, reducing satisfaction. – Dealers who allow customers to complete some/all of the F&I process online can alleviate stress.

A settlement agreement was filed with the court for a long-standing class-action lawsuit that was inherited by Brookfield and the current management team when CDK went private.   Watch Brian MacDonald, president and CEO, discuss the importance of bringing this litigation to a conclusion and his confidence in the future of CDK.
