What Dealer Members are Saying
Listen... We Get It.
The auto industry asks you to invest a lot of your time. There’s nothing worse than leaving the store to attend an event, looking for help to grow your dealership, but you waste your time and money.
Most conferences are full of “pay-to-play” experts disguising their pitch with glorified speeches and workshops.
What would happen if you participated in the same mastermind methods taught by Napoleon Hill and used by business icons like Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, Elizabeth Arden, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, etc.?
Imagine what you can accomplish at your dealership if you apply industry-leading breakthroughs crafted by you and qualified peers.
That’s what you’ll do at Business Bourbon & Cigars. You’ll unite with top automotive leaders from single-point stores and multiple rooftops representing all brands – people like you.
We work together during mastermind sessions to help each other grow faster and solve each other’s business struggles – infused with bourbon, cigars, and fun.
What started as a group of individual car dealers has become a unified and unstoppable force for excellence. This exclusive event improves your leadership skills, client experience, marketing, sales, and profitability.
Business, Bourbon, and Cigars – what more could you want?
- Unite with achievers dedicated to excellence
- Make a habit of crushing your sales and marketing goals
- Work together to get the information, ideas and support you need to move forward faster and make wise decisions
- Tour iconic bourbon distilleries, Churchill Downs, etc. Enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner, rare bourbon tastings, and cigar rolling - all complimentary
