This year’s NADA conference offered many welcome perspectives – not the least of which was that we were all in attendance again as COVID restrictions lifted. But perhaps the most significant was how increasingly important it is becoming for manufacturers and dealers alike to keep up with the electrical revolution of the automobile industry.

The 2022 NADA (National Automobile Dealership Association) conference in Las Vegas is in full swing and CrossCheck is there to offer payment solutions to dealers and customers alike. Those in attendance should visit our booth (4358W) to get in-person information on how our products and services can facilitate and complete sales.

The expected clear skies and 63-degree days make February a great time to be in Las Vegas. Beyond the great weather, 70-plus golf courses and unlimited entertainment, auto dealerships have found a more urgent reason to visit – the 2020 NADA Show. But what exactly are dealers looking for besides a mirage in the desert? The answer is a competitive edge in an industry with ever-increasing challenges. Some auto dealers bring “a shopping list” because they know exactly what to look for, but others hope to discover any type of advantage that presents itself. NADA, the National Automobile Dealers Association, is fully aware of the challenges, and has responded with four days of educational programming, a multi-venue exhibitor showcase, franchise meetings, and fun networking events. The 2020 NADA Show takes place Feb. 14 – 17, 2020 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Those attending the tradeshow include auto industry leaders, manufacturers, exhibitors, experts, and auto dealership management.

The Temptations aren’t performing, but their 1966 hit, “Get Ready,” sets the tone for a new decade of excellence at the 2020 NADA Show, the premier marketplace for auto dealerships.

NADA offers a separate web address for the annual show, including access to schedules, biographies of keynote speakers, maps, travel and accommodations suggestions, blog articles for auto dealerships, exhibitor details and links to its social media channels.

The annual NADA Show by the National Automobile Dealers Association is so big that it is impossible for one person to see all of it or attend all the sessions. How big? Well, the exhibit space is 504,000 square feet in three buildings. There were 22,000 attendees walking the floor. There were fully 120 individual sessions and 60 workshops. I attended the recent NADA Show at Moscone Center in San Francisco to meet specific exhibitors, so I certainly did not see everything in all three buildings. Here are a few things that I found interesting while walking the floor. Whenever you attend a show this big, you always have to wonder: who is the target audience?
