Colorado IADA Partners With SmartGroups™

SmartGroups Introduces Innovative Low-Cost, State-Specific 20 Groups for Colorado Dealers

The Colorado Independent Automobile Dealers Association has joined with SmartGroups™: 20 Groups Reimagined in a partnership that includes an innovative new concept in 20 Groups.

SmartGroups Lite are state-specific 20 Groups designed to minimize the time spent away from the dealership and the costs of travel and accommodations. Colorado’s SmartGroups Lite will include primarily dealers from Colorado, with all meetings held within the state on an accelerated two-day schedule.

Members of SmartGroups Lite still have the benefit of the industry’s best moderators/consultants and best meeting content, topics and speakers, but in less time and at lower cost.

“We’re excited to launch a very first in 20 Groups,” SmartGroups founder and CEO Justin Osburn said. “Low prorates, no air travel necessary, all dealers from within the state. Thanks to CIADA, this is literally the most affordable 20 Group program ever offered to retail dealers in Colorado.”

The joint venture will also provide other education and training opportunities for CIADA’s member dealers.

“We’re always looking to help Colorado’s independent dealers move forward,” CIADA CEO David Cardella said. “This partnership provides CIADA members with an opportunity to engage with experts and with other dealers to take their business to the next level.”

Lite 20 Groups will be available in every state in which the IADA is partnered with SmartGroups.

If your state IADA isn’t partnered with SmartGroups and you’re interested in joining a SmartGroups Lite, contact your state association’s executive director or email SmartGroups director Howard Bullock at howard@smart20groups.com.
