With Wireless Ronin's more than 20 years of experience serving the automotive industry and Alan's deep industry expertise, he will lead the panel through several key topics to include creating trust between customers and dealership personnel, continuing the brand momentum created outside of the dealership and facilitating an expedited dealership sales experience that aligns with customer expectations.

The Automotive Customer Centricity Summit will focus on how these successful brands are executing intelligent CRM practices by placing the customer at the center of their showroom marketing strategy, delivering true value to empowered consumers, and turning customers into brand advocates. A few of the topics to be covered include:
- Subaru's focus on creating and leveraging brand advocates
