More than 60 vital suppliers to modern motor retailers will be in one place at Automotive Management Live on November 9 ready to help car dealerships improve their sales, aftersales and customer service.
A variety of firms from Approved Valeting and AutoComms Solutions to Vyne and Warrantywise will be exhibiting throughout the day at Automotive Management Live, which also has four seminar streams - digital, sales, aftersales and strategy - in which more than two dozen industry experts and analysts will share their insights to help dealers better prepare for 2024 trading and beyond.
"A visit to AM Live at Birmingham NEC will be a day well spent," said AM editor Tim Rose. "As the industry's normal patterns steadily return and the pressure builds to move more metal quicker it can be tempting to keep the head down and focus on the immediate opportunities and challenges. But any automotive retail leader must take time to hear what's around the corner and to at least sense-check their plans for next year and thereafter. That's what AM Live is for. And this year's seminar line-up is the best yet."
The event is supported by the National Franchised Dealers Association and speakers include Arnold Clark chief executive Eddie Hawthorne, Auto Trader's director of automotive finance Rachael Jones, Bloomberg Intelligence's global head of automotive research Mike Dean and Volvo Car UK's managing director Nicole Melillo Shaw (pictured).

Chris Lester, event director, added: "Together with the NFDA we've put together this year's flagship AM event for the UK's automotive retailers to debate the big strategic issues such as new entrant car brands but also to help find those small operational improvements that all add up to make a difference."
