AutoTrader recommended that we speak with Laurence Winmill to help us navigate our journey and expand our Bristol-based commercial vehicle business throughout the UK. His experience in this sector was already proven and he worked to assist us with business development, restructuring and the introduction of processes as part of our company growth strategy.
Using data and marketing insights, Laurence helped us understand the power of digital advertising transforming the sales strategy with a significant investment in national advertising that produced huge growth. Together with a new dealer management system and an integrated website, we created the platform to move the business online and became recognised as one of the UK’s leading digital dealerships. Laurence played a significant part in our business development and transformation strategy, resulting in a successful exit in 2021 when the business was sold to Cazoo in a multimillion-pound deal.
