Who’s Attending Elevate 2020?

Elevate 2020 will kick off next Tuesday, and as excited as we are for the incredible speaker lineup, we’re also thrilled to interact with our attendees. HR Managers, Dealer Principals, General Managers, and Fixed-Ops Managers from dealerships across the country have registered for Elevate, and we can’t wait to connect during our discussion-based forums. 
With so many states following different safety protocols and reopening schedules, there’s a lot to gain from asking your fellow dealership professionals how they’re handling their day-to-day in the current environment.
