Dealers Resources Inc. Hosts F&I Compliance Boot Camps for Detroit Area Dealers
Colleyville, TX – Dealers Resources Inc. (DRI) hosted a regulation compliance boot camp for area automobile dealer sales and F&I personnel in May.

The number of regulations that impact consumer transactions has grown exponentially in the last several years. DRI provides training solutions that help dealers maintain fully compliant operations. Dealers who comply with regulations not only avoid lawsuits and fines, they offer consumers a seamless, transparent buying experience, which boosts customer satisfaction – so both consumers and dealers benefit.”
