Even in the midst of a pandemic and the strife many faced personally and professionally, there are silver linings around it. As we mourn the business and personal losses, we also celebrate the opportunities created. Interest rates have remained low, dealers have been able to reevaluate expenses and look at ways to be more efficient and effective throughout the business and we’ve also been given the ability to look inward and reprioritize what is most important in our personal lives. The biggest opportunity the pandemic has presented for everyone is the ability to reflect on how we can learn from it and go about business AND our personal lives with more intentionality and focus.
