Grant Cardone on the State of the Retail Car Business and What Dealers Need to Focus on

Automotive News

[powerpress]

Finding the strength to stay motivated during times of hardship is not an easy task, but it is crucial for succeeding and thriving in the long-term. So, how does world-renown serial entrepreneur Grant Cardone do it? He joins anchor Jim Fitzpatrick to tell us.

ā€œFirst thing I did was cut a department,ā€ says Grant. ā€œIt was a new department that I was trying to launch, and I said, look I don’t have the energy and attention.ā€ Grant had to make some tough sacrifices for his business in order to properly focus on other key departments. He reassured his staff that they would get through this; that these difficult times wouldn’t last forever. ā€œThe question is now, what will you look like on the other side,ā€ he continued. ā€œWill you be stronger, more resilient, bigger, faster?ā€

So, how can dealers come out on the other side of this in a positive position? Grant believes that dealers will have to swallow some hard realities. One being, that huge, multi-million dollar dealership facilities don’t sell cars anymore. Customers want an online shopping experience. Home deliveries and digital transactions are the future.

Grant Cardone is a world-renown serial entrepreneur, international influencer, and real-estate tycoon with $1.7 billion AUM. He is also the New York Times best-selling author of ā€œSell or Be Soldā€ and ā€œThe 10X Ruleā€œ, as well as the founder of the 10X Growth Conference. For more great insight from Grant, be sure to watch our entire interview above.
