The Dealer's Best Friend
18+ years in automotive — sales floors to AI products, marketing leadership to full-stack development. I see what winning looks like for the dealer before anyone else does. Then I fixate on the details and solve the problems that actually move the needle.
The receipts.
Numbers, not narratives. Every claim traces back to a real store, a real team, a real outcome.
“Some people call it obsessive. I call it the only way to do it right.”
I started on the sales floor. Taught myself to code because waiting for someone else to build what I could see wasn't an option. Built an agency from scratch, ran it for 11 years, and learned that nobody was going to build the tools I needed — so I built them myself.
18+ years later, I've gone from selling cars to building AI products, from managing local PPC campaigns to leading marketing at Strolid, from a one-man operation to founding Vandoko. The thread through all of it: a borderline manic fixation on the details that actually matter.
Get the signal.
The wave is here. Most are still on the beach debating what that sound is. This is how you get ahead of it — real insights, real experience, zero fluff.
