Why Strolid Is A Game Changer For Sales BDC
Strolid was born in the age of rapid technological enhancements. The experience from those improvements has molded and guided our team to become the best Service BDC in the automotive industry. The goal is simple. Helping our dealer partners succeed is a byproduct of the relationships we establish. We do not treat our dealers as just “another deal” but as partners who will commit to working with us in any way we can, as long as it helps. In many cases, we are brought in to help and advise on operational aspects of the business that aren’t directly related to our scope of work.
Our Founder and CEO, Vin Micciche, has over 30+ years of automotive experience. He pioneered the development of the BDC and is regarded as a thought leader in the industry. Be sure to hear what Vin has to say on various industry-related topics on the Dealer Insights Podcast, available everywhere podcasts are available.
- Automotive experience is who we are, with several team members having successful retail experience
- Passionate about the results of the work we do, and the growth of each dealer partner
- Committed to every dealer we partner with, providing insight and perspective for all challenges, not limited to BDC operation alone
- BDC Services is the byproduct of the relationships we build, and that mentality spills into our conversations with your customers
- Never Miss is not a tagline; it is the core of Strolid that we live every day
- Technology is a resource, and in the world of BDC, we strive to master the mix and utilization to improve results
Handling The HEAT Since 1987
"Back in the old days if you couldn't handle heat you wouldn't survive in the car business. If you don't want the heat then get out of the car business."
