Jeff Watson and Luke Godwin provide an invaluable service to the automotive dealer community. The Independent Dealer podcast is both informative and entertaining and is my go-to while driving to and from auctions.

Valuable

Thank you both for adding value to our segment. I just finished listening to the last podcast so now I will start listening to them again. I’m more powerful in the market because of your information. Thank you Luke and Jeff.
