Social media and AI are no longer side projects for dealerships—they're the engines driving connection, branding, and sales growth. In this episode of Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki, I sit down with John Spinoza and Julian Builis of Cruise Control, a team that's been transforming dealership marketing through smarter strategies, compliance safeguards, and AI-powered engagement.

We break down what every dealer, entrepreneur, and executive needs to know right now, including:

• The future of personal vs. professional content (and why both matter)

• How contests and shareable posts are outperforming traditional boosting

• The compliance and copyright pitfalls that can cost dealers millions

• The role of AI in capturing leads before they slip away

• How to create emotional, scroll-stopping content that buyers trust

If you're ready to cut through the noise and actually make social + AI work for your dealership or business, this episode will show you how to put your marketing on Cruise Control.
