Welcome to Street Smarts, powered by SmartWolf Consulting, where we dive into the strategies and stories that fuel success in the automotive industry and beyond.
Today, weβre thrilled to have Scott Biehl with us. Scottβs journey began over 35 years ago, rising from salesperson to become the #1 Jaguar Land Rover Dealer in the USA and ultimately the owner and CEO of a multi-store dealership group. As GM and owner of Mercedes-Benz of Fresno, Scott played a pivotal role in SmartWolf Consultingβs inception back in 2010, when we launched our first buying center.
Scottβs dedication to helping others succeed is evident not only through his leadership but also through his book, Driven to Succeed, which he wrote to empower individuals in both personal and professional growth. Now, as a leader in executive coaching and consulting, he helps organizations unlock their potential. His latest innovations, Loop Me In and Recover, are game-changers in inventory control and accountability for dealerships.
Join us as we explore Scottβs unique insights, his passion for transformation, and his dedication to driving success in every venture. Iβm your host, Darrell Steed. Letβs get into it! ππ¨
