The Dealer Playbook

Ep. 639 - Stop Selling Cars, Start Creating Experiences, With Bob Welby, INFINITI USA


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Bob Welby, Senior Director of Operations at INFINITI USA, to break down how small, thoughtful touches can make a massive impact. (Spoiler: It’s not about throwing money at the problem—it’s about paying attention.)

Let’s be real: Customer experience gets tossed around at every conference like it’s some big, shiny secret. But what does it actually mean to deliver an experience that turns a one-time buyer into a lifelong fan?

Here’s what we dive into:

  • Why dealerships spend way too much trying to overcompensate for operational inefficiencies—and how to fix it.
  • INFINITI’s new My INFINITI Expert initiative—sending someone to your house after purchase to walk you through the car again.
  • The magic of thoughtful hospitality: Why anticipating your customer’s unspoken needs can set you apart—and no, it doesn’t require a “big” budget.
