People, Experience and Care with Missy

Welcome to Street Smarts, powered by Smartwolf Consulting! I’m your host, Darrell Steed, and today we have a true gem in the world of the car business—Missy Ballance!

The Rockstar is hands down one of the best people I have ever hired and Missy is not just a passionate advocate for all things automotive; she’s a vibrant force with a wealth of knowledge and experience that’s hard to match. Starting her journey as an intern at Enterprise Rent-A-Car back in the 90s, she transitioned from the classroom to the dealership with a degree in Human Development from Sac State and a heart full of enthusiasm for selling cars, finance, and training.

Lucky enough to work with an owner group that champions internal growth and invests in their staff, Missy embodies the spirit of mentorship and development in the industry. When she’s not making waves in the car business, you can find her enjoying concerts, boating with family, sipping on expensive coffee, and sprinkling her unique brand of humor into every conversation.

So buckle up as we dive into insightful discussions, tips, and a few laughs with Missy Ballance! Let’s hit the road! 🚗💨
