The First Pencil
Kathi Kruse and Mike The Car Guy Correra are best friends, with many many years of retail experience in the car biz. "We decided to get together and talk about the things that are important to us in the auto industry, and hope you’ll come along for the ride. We’ll cover auto industry stuff, dealership profitability, and digital platforms, all with a dose of humor and our love for 80s/90s music. Join us!"

Creative Content Ideas for Dealership Service Depts
Kathi and Mike are car biz veterans. We strive to make the car biz a better place.
Mike shares his less-than-5-star dealer service experience and as with all things dealership customer related, we are inspired to share content ideas for service dept personnel and the marketers who love them.
Kathi shares her experience running the Hanaeleh horse rescue’s Hay Fundraiser on social media. She conducts these fundraisers three times a year and every time there are more changes that create obstacles for a successful result.
In our music segment:
RIP Paul Reubens AKA Pee-Wee Herman
Danny Elfman and Oingo Boingo
