Contest Details and Qualifications

FIRST - The WHY?  🧠 Our objective of this contest is to showcase some of the brightest and forward thinking minds in the industry - with a #BetterTogether philosophy - providing their ideas on WHAT they would do if they could save 20% of their marketing dollars or time spent managing and executing marketing!   We know that there are great dealers out there taking advantage of today's GIGANTIC DEMAND & GROSSES...BUT we challenge those seeing this success to creatively inspire and share the greatness of working-in and shopping-in automotive from the added/saved time & money.  And those of you that have already cut advertising expense and resources back - did you reallocate or just pocket?  Or are you planning for something bigger in the future? Are your marketing teams taking this opportunity to use technology to be more efficient, managing and executing marketing? 👨‍💻

We will select 10 finalists on March 4th, 2022 who will be invited to attend our GURU Experience event at the Aria Hotel and Casino on March 12th, 2022! Finalists will have five minutes to present their idea to the panel and the winner for each question will receive $250!
