VINCUE Is Heading to the 2026 Dealer Profitability Summit

VINCUE Is Heading to the 2026 Dealer Profitability Summit to talk Service Lane Acquisition

Published On: April 3rd, 2026Categories: Events

The service drive isn’t just where cars get fixed. For dealers who know how to work it, it’s where the next deal is already warming up, sitting right there in the waiting room. The problem is that most dealerships are still approaching it the wrong way, chasing transactions instead of building loyalty. VINCUE Vice President of Product Daniel Govaer is heading to the 2026 Dealer Profitability Summit in Austin to talk about the difference, and why it matters more now than ever.

Meet the Dealer Profitability Summit

The 2026 Dealer Profitability Summit is a dealer-only, two-day event in Austin, TX bringing together top automotive leaders for focused conversations on strategy, performance, and profitability. This year’s event connects dealers directly with platforms like Meta, TikTok, Pinterest, and Google, alongside some of the sharpest minds in the industry. With an expected 70+ dealer personnel representing over 100 unique rooftops, it’s less of a conference and more of a 20 Group on steroids.

What Daniel Will Cover on Stage

Daniel takes the stage on Day One, April 16, 2026 at 10:15 AM, for a session titled “Solving Service Lane Acquisition through Client Loyalty.” He’ll challenge the conventional VIN-first approach to service drive engagement and make the case for a customer-first loyalty strategy built on relevance, timing, and genuine value. Expect a conversation about why most service-to-sales initiatives fail, how to think about loyalty as a coverage and capacity challenge rather than a closing problem, and what the full financial picture of a loyalty transaction actually looks like when you factor in new car gross, trade acquisition, internal recon, and used car opportunity.

Our Dealers Can’t Stay Quiet on Google

Launched VINCUE a couple months ago for our dealership as we were previously on vAuto. We love the pricing, software, and the support team is engaging with a lot of new features coming. It was a GREAT decision to switch from vAuto to VINCUE and we are very happy with the new software and support team.

New to the VINCUE family, and I’m very impressed with the immediate support provided by the team. Charlie Basham has been a key factor in getting the dealership started on a great path with the VINCUE system. He has been very responsive to my questions and has made sure I can navigate the key reports and understand the process used. Cheyenne Currier has also been very responsive with merchandising uploads needed by the dealership. I look forward to working with the VINCUE Team in the future.

Was previously with another provider for 16 years but now have been with VINCUE for 6 months and I absolutely love it and would never go back to my old provider. Even if you’re not considering making any changes right now, this is one I would look into and you won’t regret it! What I realized is how behind the times my previous provider is and I didn’t even realize it until I learned about VINCUE!
