"Digital Dealer recently announced plans to pivot its in-person conference and expo – originally scheduled to take place Sept. 15-17, 2020 in Las Vegas, NV – as an entirely virtual experience. Digital Dealer Virtual, October 6-7, 2020, will bring the auto retail community back together again to reconnect, reinvent and reignite growth through powerful networking and learning opportunities."

Digital Dealer 11 Review by Kevin Frye →

"Well, maybe tired is a better word. I ran my first Tough Mudder the weekend before Digital Dealer, and for one day, I beat Father Time - though he took revenge on me that night as I nursed multiple bruises, scratches, and sore muscles from running 10+ miles in the mud and tackling 23 tough obstacles. And less than a week later I ran a half-marathon the Sunday before Digital Dealer. Why do I bring this up? After finishing the race, I cleaned up and boarded a plane to fly down to Digital Dealer, tired and sore. When I arrived at The Rosen Shingle Resort, I was welcomed to my room with a bottle of wine and a selection of food. Now that is a great way to start Digital Dealer 14!"

"By default, I have been loyal to Digital Dealer as I have attended those since the very early conferences, and the biggest value I draw from attending something like this is meeting with the other people I know in the industry. I have a great network of people that I respect highly and am great friends with from the early DD conferences, and I know that when I attend Digital Dealer, I will typically see most of them... I have also been a speaker at several of the most recent Digital Dealer conferences, which has been a great experience."
