What if your biggest dealership problems aren’t “market problems”… but creativity problems?
In this episode of The Dealer Playbook, Michael sits down with Nir Bashan, world-renowned creativity expert, founder & CEO of The Creator Mindset, LLC, Clio Award winner, and Emmy-nominated former Hollywood/advertising executive to show car dealers how to use creativity as a practical business tool, not fluffy “inspiration,” but real-world tactics that move metal, grow service, and improve culture.
Nir has coached leaders at AT&T, Microsoft, NFL Network, EA Sports, Suzuki, JetBlue, and more. In this conversation, he maps the same creativity frameworks directly onto retail automotive in 2025 and beyond.
