Before insurance, I spent years in the automotive industry and ranked among the top Honda sales professionals in the country. That experience gave me a deep understanding of how dealerships actually operate ā€” the pace, the pressure, the moving parts, and how insurance issues can quietly disrupt profitability and deal flow.

Today, through Wheelhouse Risk Advisory, I help dealerships across the country navigate complex insurance and risk-management challenges with a practical, relationship-driven approach built specifically for the automotive industry.

My goal is simple: protect the dealership, protect the customer experience, and help keep business moving. šŸš˜

Honoring PFC Henry P. Hartges

Today I want to honor my grandfather, PFC Henry P. Hartges, a German immigrant who became an American hero.

Born in DĆ¼sseldorf, Germany, he came to the United States as a boy, became a naturalized citizen, and went on to serve this country with extraordinary courage in World War II.

On March 15, 1945, near Haguenau, France, his company was pinned down by enemy machine gun fire. Acting on his own initiative, he advanced through heavy fire and a mined area, eliminated the enemy strong point, and enabled his company to continue forward.

For his gallantry, he was awarded the Silver Star. He also received the Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and multiple campaign medals.

He lost part of his leg in service to this country, then came home to Michigan, raised a family, worked for the U.S. Postal Service, and lived a life of quiet strength.

Iā€™m proud to carry his legacy forward, not because I could ever fill his boots, but because I want to remember what they stood for: courage, sacrifice, duty, restraint, family, and love of country.

Thank you, Grandpa. Your legacy still matters.

As a car sales person, are you using Word tracks to connect with your customers or to coerce?

This is a message for car, sales people, car, sales, managers, dealership owners, because customers deserve our very best, and that involves connecting with them truly and listening to them rather than listening for opportunities to regurgitate something rehearsed.

Most people think this job is about policies, quotes, and paperwork.

Itā€™s not.

Itā€™s about sitting across from someone who built something from nothingā€¦
hearing their storyā€¦
and making sure one bad day doesnā€™t take it all away.

Itā€™s the conversations in between.
The laughs you donā€™t plan.
The trust that gets built slowlyā€¦ and earned the right way.

Somewhere between the emails, the coffee, and the conversationsā€¦
you realize this was never really about insurance.

Itā€™s about people.

And if you do it rightā€¦
they donā€™t just become clients.

They become relationships you care about.

He thought it was just a broken A/C unitā€¦ until one plug-in turned into a multi-million dollar nightmare. šŸ’»ā„ļø

An HVAC tech connects his laptopā€¦ and suddenly customer credit cards, DOBs, and sensitive data are GONE. Lawsuits. Reputation destroyed. Business crippled.

Hereā€™s the truth most business owners miss: your biggest risk isnā€™t always what you expect. And sometimesā€¦ itā€™s already inside your walls.

Ohā€”and not everything is as it seems šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§āž”ļøšŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø

šŸ„³šŸ„³HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO JACKIE AND ZACH ON THEIR NEW CAR!!šŸ„³šŸ„³

I had the privilege of helping them into a beautiful 2022 CR-V, and we were able to have tons of fun along the way.

Iā€™m glad I could dismantle the persona that so commonly is associated with ā€œcar salespeopleā€ and I could instead be a listening ear and truly help them into the perfect car.
