Carwow is looking for a VP of Product. This week we ran a total of 8 sessions with back to back accountability every 12 hours. We ran a morning session and an evening session and I am convinced that we will see more people land a product manager than ever before. Here’s what happened this week. We lived streamed every session and started from scratch with a resume review, followed by mock interview training, and most importantly of all application accountability. The biggest bottleneck for people struggling to secure product manager jobs have been a lack of applications. Candidates aren’t reaching out to enough roles, nor are they reaching back out to the hiring managers enough times. This is a process and motivation issue that was easily solved meeting twice a day, which has all been documented in our YouTube. If you are finally ready to land this job in the next 45 to 90 days then see us in Skool and join the challenge. The real challenge can begin after you land the job, so you can focus on monetizing your personal brand, and oh yes I have been live streaming those sessions too. January is almost over so you have a decision to make, you can either sit back and the month pass you on by like 2024 … or you can secure this job already and start focusing on how to escape the 9 to 5 grind completely. See you in Skool! https://lnkd.in/gtQjCfUH Don’t be late to Skool! https://lnkd.in/gtQjCfUH PS I need more coaches, since I can’t host all these sessions myself. https://lnkd.in/gtQjCfUH There is so much money to be made here, but I’m not saying it’s not going to be work. Y’all see all the testimonials we put up? Most of these rockstars simply don’t have enough time. Product management needs more success stories and mentors out here fam! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 #productmanagement

Got the back to work blues and finding yourself already trawling round for a new role? Would prefer to be working for a dynamic scale up that is changing an industry? I'm hiring for a VP of Product to come in and shape the future of selling your car online. It's still one of the most 'fraught' transactions with friction on both sides and we believe we can transform it. We can make it better for sellers but also for our dealer partners who increasingly see this stock sourcing channel as a strategic advantage to get hold of cars they can't find elsewhere. Our fundraise mid-2024 unlocked another year of growth for Carwow with a particular focus on investment in product. There couldn't be a better time to join. https://lnkd.in/ezeRMZ6u

In this week's "Never Stop Driving" blog, Hagerty Media chief Larry Webster talks about Hagerty's just-released Bull Market list for 2025 in context of the love of cars. Here's an excerpt: "One of the many reasons I’m grateful for my Hagerty gig is because the company shares my belief that cars are good for us. They’re a necessary resisting force to the algorithm-powered platforms that not only monetize our attention but also allegedly suggest to kids that they off their parents over screen-time limits. Cars, or almost any hobby involving tangible things, pull us into the real world and connect us to the unplanned experiences and people that bring richness to our lives." Indeed they do.
