As part of our Pinktober fundraising efforts, our team hit the dance floor for a special Zumba class led by certified instructor and fellow DOWC team member Bridget Hudzik! From the energy in the room to the smiles all around, it was a fun way to come together in support of breast cancer research and everyone impacted by the disease. 💗

At DOWC, every contribution makes a difference. We proudly match 100% of all internal employee donations, doubling the impact of our team’s generosity in support of this important cause.

What happens when the customer is ready to move forward, but the process isn’t?

In Episode 2 of Ahead of the Curve, Michael and Paulina take on one of the most familiar structures in the dealership: the traditional, linear F&I process.

They dig into what happens when the deal gets stuck waiting for the next step, why F&I expertise doesn’t have to be tied to one office or even one location, and how Remote FI creates new ways for dealerships to operate, centralized, decentralized or on-demand.

It’s not about replacing the F&I manager. It’s about rethinking what’s possible when you give them, and the dealership, more flexibility.

What if F&I didn’t have to work the way it always has?

Centralized. Decentralized. On-demand. Even from home.

The traditional F&I model is changing, and in the next episode of Ahead of the Curve, Michael LaMotta and Paulina Sansone get into what that can actually look like inside a dealership.

Episode 2 is coming soon.

Our first episode is LIVE!

Michael LaMotta, CEO of DOWC and Co-Founder of AiAuto, sits down with Paulina Sansone to go back to the beginning; why he started DOWC, what he learned along the way, and the moment his own car-buying experience made one thing impossible to ignore: automotive needed to evolve.

From changing buyer expectations to a dealership process that hasn’t always changed with them, this conversation sets the stage for where automotive goes from here.
