The needs, expectations and demands of today’s car shoppers are telling us a lot about the future of our industry. But looking at it through just the automotive-industry lens isn’t going to help how we approach the future of car shopping and buying. Whether it’s ordering diapers online, getting a refill on dog food through an Alexa voice command, or shopping for cars on your phone, today’s consumers expect to be guided through a frictionless experience from start to finish, no matter what they’re buying. We will focus on how to make sense of the myriad of touchpoints, technology and unknowns that lie ahead within the industry and in eCommerce, while keeping a focus on grounding your business with a purposeful shopping experience that results in positive experiences for you and your customers.
