NORCROSS, Ga. — July 12th, 2017 – Automotive Development Group (ADG)/EasyCare announced that David Hunter has joined the company as an F&I specialist. His duties include in-dealership F&I training and consulting.

“David’s extensive industry experience and academic credentials are a powerful combination,” said Greg English, president of ADG. “We have nothing but the highest expectations for his success, and that of the dealers and F&I professionals with whom he works.”

Hunter earned a master’s degree in business administration from Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C., in September. He plans to apply the skills he acquired in his graduate studies and his experience in every phase of dealership operations to his new position.

“I grew up around the industry, at the dealership, cutting grass and sweeping the lot. I then moved into detail, parts and service, and then sales, and now I’m back on the finance side,” Hunter said. “I knew I wanted to stay in the automotive world. I want to be part of an industry that’s always changing.”

Hunter identified the emergence of new technology and plateauing sales as opportunities for auto dealers to update and strengthen their F&I processes, maximizing productivity and opportunities for fixed ops revenue.
