  Speaker 2: And you guys get to know each other through YP
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: and it's.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: A great program hereon Borlosvilt.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: It's been I don't remember when it started, but it's
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: been around for a long time. Yeah, tell us about
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: what's going on at YP these days.
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: You know, we have a lot of things happening.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: So Sammy, I currently serve as the past president, and
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: so I just rolled over on July first, and so
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: Amanda French is our new president, which is exciting. I'm
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: not sure if you guys saw our video on Facebook,
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: but we did a fun little video. So Sammy is
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: actually doing a lot of social media for us, and
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: she does a lot of our social chair items. But
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: our biggest thing that we have coming up right now
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: is our softball tournament.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: So this is brand new. We're really excited and so
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: this was actually Samy's idea. So we'll see how it
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: goes right now. No, but it's it's going to be good.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: We're excited.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: Got sponsorships still available, and then we have five teams
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: that are on there right now, and so we're going
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: to be at the artun Off Fields and then the
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: championship is actually going to be at the Dungeon Stadium.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Cool.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: Were really excited.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's so. What's the deal why I have
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: a softball tournament?
• 1:53
  Speaker 6: Well, for me, they're kind of the reason that I
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: thought about doing a softball tournament is I wanted to
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: bring something a little bit different to Bartlesville.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: We have a lot of nonprofits.
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: We're always raising money for different places in the community,
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: and I thought what better way of bringing people together
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: to do something a little bit different, a little bit competitive.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: The community can be involved, other corporations can be involved,
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: and then the top three winners actually get money to
• 2:20
  Speaker 6: donate back to the organization of their choice, so to
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: get the community involved, but also to still give back
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: to the community.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: And of course, yeah, this is also another way to
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: tap into a different type of crowd, right, and so
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: people that maybe haven't been a part of Young Professionals
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: in the past. We're bringing in new people, which is
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: really exciting. We're getting exposure and people are really excited
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: about the tournament.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: So we'll see, we'll see how it goes.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And YP does so much stuff.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, you mentioned your philanthropy and you guys just
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: we're a lot of the nonprofits and are always connecting
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: people in town. And really, you know, it's a great
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: network of people that you know, get them involved in
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: the community and get it. You know, if you're new
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: to town, it gives you a chance to meet some
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: people and really explore what Barbletil has to offer.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think people that are coming in
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: so our mission really is to help people live, work
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: and play in Bartlesville and so and that's really what
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: we're doing, right, and so we've changed a lot of
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: things in the last few years, and so just trying
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: to figure out where, you know, what.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: People want to do. And that's when Samy came up
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: with the idea. It's like, why not, let's try it.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: And so we tell people all the time when we're
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: at events, is hey, if you if there's something that
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: we haven't done here, we haven't tried, like, let's try it.
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: Like come you're going to be on our committee though,
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: but let's for sure.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great, And it does seem like summer has
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: finally arrived around here.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: It's hot.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we've been really busy.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Out at the dealership.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Today we'll be out at the Lighthouse Outreach Center for
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: the I had no idea Lunch and Tour were sponsoring
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: today and.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: So I look forward to seeing folks out there.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: That organization does a lot of great for our community
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: and we're proud to support them. Also, the tonight kicks
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: off the forty fourth annual Green Country Rodeo. If you
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: have you guys haven't been out to that, you want
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: to go watch the Mutton bust and for sure, but
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: every night they have a special theme. There's lots of
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: great food and it's a fun time, it really is,
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and we'll be out there. They were shuttling out some
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: new Forerunners and Tacomas and Tundras out there for people
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: to check out last night, and our team will be
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: out there. And then here is just a few minutes,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: We've got the Dungeons Toyota Indians begin in the state
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: tournament and Ada, I think be available on the radio KPGM,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: KPGM at ten o'clock. So then you listen to the
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Barzil team down in Ada. They've had a good season.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I'm so proud of the team. It was a tough
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: season in some ways. They played a lot of older players,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: but they've got a lot of pitching depth and really finished.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: The season strong. Great.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure what happened on the radio show last
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: week that there was a this is Romper, Roper Roper,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: This is Roper, the Romp, Missus Roper Romp, Barcrawl, Jason
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and the Shane and came in and this going out
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: of town has got to stop.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of fun heard, and that's Saturday nights.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: There is a lot going on in Bartlesville.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: We've also continued the hot pace of sales on our
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: new toyotas excited to say we've got I think it's
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: forty eight now either are an allocation or on the
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: ground or as I've been saying the last few months,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: our inventory is growing. It's just kind of hard to
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: see because we keep turning the vehicles so fast and
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: we've got to keep doing that. Toyota just doesn't can't
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: seem to build enough vehicles to grow our supply. Demand
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: is too high, and you know that's a good problem
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: to have, I guess, and to have a vehicle that's
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: so popular you can't keep.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Them on the ground. They're flying off the lot.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Our sales are fast and we've been earning a lot
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: of inventory, a lot of great selection right now, really
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: cool stuff too. Like I saw we had a TRD
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Tundra allocated to us in the last round, as well
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: as a TRD pro Sequahia. We've got a great selection
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: of Tacomas and Thunders, rab fours, everything you could think
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: of for runner Land Cruise or Cena GR eighty six,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Grand Highlander, Highlander and Corolla Camray of course, so all
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: the others. So it's great, great to have a good
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: selection at Toyota's for folks to choose from.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: And we also.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: This week there was a little bit of news on
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the Tara front where the Japanese cars to it. Obviously
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: someone raded in Japan only about thirty or forty percent
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: of what we sell here in the US, but the
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: many are. The tariff situation at least is clarified a
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: little bit now, which I think is great for Toyota.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit smaller than anticipated, and I think
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: that's going to allow for Toyota to just guess as
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: they have all along. They really didn't adjust pricing. They've
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: continued to build every vehicle and ship them as they
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: are in such great demand that it's it seems like
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: this is going to work out really well, and it
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: for us in Toyota in particular, I think is going
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: to be in good shape going into the rest of
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: the year and on into.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Twenty twenty six.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And I keep hearing great things from our customers. You know,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: they're telling us we're doing a decent job taking care
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: of folks out there. And it's been a good time
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: at the dealership these last few months.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Lots of good stuff going on.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: So get back to the YP A little bit enough
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: car business. So the you know, I think a lot
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: of people don't know to say, oh, well that young,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: I'm not young or professional, you know what. I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: that's one thing about what you guys do that a
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: lot of people don't really know what it is.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: And you know, it isn't really an age.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Based organization so much, and you can really come from
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: any walk alive, and so tell us if people are
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: interested in it a little bit more about how to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: become involved and the other.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Stuff you guys do regularly. I know the softball tournament
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: is coming up and we'll talk.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: About that again, but there's lots of other stuff you
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: do that's you know, pretty much all the time.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I think that's the biggest thing is everyone's like,
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: well I'm too old. So I think people age themselves
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: out of young professionals. Before we would ever say like
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: you can't come anymore, We would never do that, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: so we want the support, right and so I think
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: what we usually say is twenty one to forty is
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: what we gear our events towards. But that doesn't mean
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: if you're forty one or fifty five or whatever that
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: you can't come to our events.
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: And so we want to encourage that.
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: Matter of fact, Samy just did an event where we
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: ask mentors to come in with our young professionals and
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: have a coffee, and so there was a coffee event
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: went really well, and so we were just asking for
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: people that maybe have aged themselves out of young professionals
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: to come in and just be the mentors to these
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: young professionals, which is really cool.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: And so no, there's no age barrier.
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: They're always welcome. But how to get involved is we
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: have a membership form that they can fill out, so
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: ypbville dot com and they can fill.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Out that form.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: We have our own new websites brand new this year,
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: and so they can fill that out and then we
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: would have one of our live chairs reach out to
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: them and then just start coming to our events.
• 9:45
  Speaker 7: If you have.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Facebook, and you'll see a ton of stuff that Samy
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: is posting about what we're doing.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: I think this month we have six.
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: We have six events in August events and there's a
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: lot of opportunities to get involved anywhere from social events
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: to volunteer opportunities, lunch and learn, and then of course
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: the softball tournament. But there's a wide variety, so then
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: you can kind of kind of just gauge like what
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: you're interested in. There's lots of options, so then there's
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: a little little excuse to not be involved with younger.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Well you also, again you probably don't have to do everything.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: You can do the thing that fits.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: For you, and then you know, kind of build it
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: around your when you have time available, and then you
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: know what your interests are.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: And I think that's that's a really cool thing I've
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: always thought about.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: It is you have such a broad spectrum of events
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: where the people.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Just want to, you know, go be social, go and
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: or if they want to go and volunteer or support
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: an organization, now play softball.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: And I think you have a book club too.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: We do. We're so excited.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: So we're reading our third book and we've been meeting
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: at Mary gold So the new bookstore downtown, which has
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: been really fun.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: And so we just finished our second one, our third one.
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: We're reading the four Wing and so we were reading
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: leadership books the first two and we're like, you know what,
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: we want something a little different, and so we're doing
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: the Fourth Wing. Now, anybody again can join. You do
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: have to read the book before you come to the meeting.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: But if you don't If you don't read the book,
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: that's okay. Just understand that there might be a little
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: bit of spoiler alert when you get there. So so,
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: but it's been it's been really fun, just something different again,
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: very casual, but just really talking about the book and
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: what it meant to you. You know, a lot of
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: people listen to the book, maybe they read the book, maybe.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: They have audio. It's just all the different things. So
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: it's been really it's been a good thing.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's me. Long history of book clubs in Bartlesville.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: My grandmother had was in one for decades here in
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: bartleszill and a lot of her old friends I still
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: know a lot of them were involved in different organizations
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: around town. This is way before YP but they they were.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: They were kind of in that mold. I think my
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: grandmother first came to town. She had been an English
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: teacher and was passionate about books and that I love that.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't, so we don't meet every week.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: I think like some typical book clubs are meeting like
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: every week and they're checking in this one.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: We're just meeting once a month.
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: So it's not a huge commitment from you, and we
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: just asked that you read the book or at least
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: have an idea about it, and then you just come
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: once a month and we talk about it and then
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: we start the new book.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: So well, yeah, great fun.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and then tonight we actually have a social happening,
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: So our socials are just really just come hang out,
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: maybe have a drink if you would prefer. Tonight it's
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: going to be at Crossing Second from four to six,
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: and so we're partnering with Phillip sixty six and Conago
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: and their new Hire network and they'll be coming and
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: enjoying us.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: So we're excited about that. A crossing second, Yeah, a second.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: So you can just show up there and find out,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: you know, that'd be a great way to explore what
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: what is YP all about and meet you guys and
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: understand what's going on and get involved in this great organization.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Here in town.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: And you guys are are also part of the Chamber,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: right is that correct? H? So you're an offshoot of
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: that supported by them in that organization.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: Yes, we sure are. Yes, it works.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: And again you mentioned the website or Facebook Once again,
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: how do they if they're just interested in more information,
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: what's the best way.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: To do that.
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So yepbville dot com is our website and so
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: they can go on there and check different things.
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: But as far as our events go.
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: Facebook is going to be the best place to do that.
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: If they go on yepb bil dot com and they
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: sign up as a member, which is free currently.
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: So once you fill out the form, you are a member.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Like you're in.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: There's no approval process, you're in. And so once they
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: do that, then they'll start getting our newsletters. So every
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: month we try to send out a newsletter and so
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: they'll have information on our events, but also a very
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: easy link to click and add things to your calendar,

  Speaker 5: just different things like that. So you definitely want to
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: sign out if you want to know what's going on.

  Speaker 2: Right and I'm so excited to have some people with
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: the dealership maybe get involved. I've been talking to them
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: about that and so may.

  Speaker 5: You guys can put together a softball team. Wow, we
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: need the need the Dungeons Duneus stated, I mean we

  Speaker 4: we're going to try to get it all done, and
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: one day.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: You're going to have Are the games going to be full?
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: How many innings? And what do you have a whole
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: is it just you?
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: Do you have a rule book?
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: Yes? I didn't bring that with me. But we're going
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: to try to play for sixty minutes.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: Each game in the double elimination all right, double elimination.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Not like based on innings. It's a time yeah, time game.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: But they'll finish their inning if if it's in the
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: final hour.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Yes, cool, Yeah, that's that sounds like so much fun.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: And so you said you have five teams already.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: How many so you need to have at least nine
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: people to be on a team.
• 16:34
  Speaker 6: What's the Yeah, they do you have at least nine people?
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: We recommend anywhere from ten to fourteen. There again, in
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: the rules, there's some things like a certain amount of
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: girls you have to have on the field since it
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: is co ed, and but yeah, we got a lot
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: going on with the tournament.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: It'll be fun, it'll be learning. We're learning a lot.
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: I actually thought that it was referees, not umpires, So
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: I'm learning.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: A lot about softball. But it's going to be great.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: I'm not playing, don't worry are you?
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Were you a softball player?
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: I have played softball in the past.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: But a little bit of a spoiler.
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: We do have some fun corporates here in town who
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: have signed up and have teams, so that could be
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: that could be fun. There's quite a few, quite a
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: few businesses here that have built teams. So yeah, that'll
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: be a good time.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: There's certainly a.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Lot of good softball players in our community, so then
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: would think they would some of them would maybe not
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: playing anymore, maybe want to get back into it a lot.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah it's no fun.
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: Sure, yeah, it's a fun time. You know, we were
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: actually talking, so it was you that had said so.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: Sammy was mentioning that she played in the tournament, and
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: there was these older ladies that played and they brought
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: their lawn chairs out and sat in each position and
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: they like played softball, which I thought was so fun.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: I'm like that I could do that. I could actually
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: play in that way. So anyways, we'd even welcome one
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: of those teams if we had some.
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: Well, and when it's for a good cause, just go
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: out and have fun. I mean, yeah, who ultimately wins
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: will get money, but that's to go towards their nonprofit
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: of choice. So we're just out there just trying to
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: raise money for the community but also bring the community together.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: How much is it to be to register a team.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Or two and fifty dollars?
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, and you mentioned sponsorships are those?
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: We do have three different levels. We have a two
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: hundred and fifty dollars level, a five hundred dollars level,
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: and one thousand dollars level, and we do have some available.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: So we're welcome to sponsorships.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: And again that one the easiest way for that if
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: you are interested, is to email Wipe Bartlesville at gmail
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: dot com, or you can go on our Facebook page
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: and send us a quick message, or if you know
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: cmor you can send us a message as well.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Great.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: That sounds like so much fun. Maybe we could get
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: the missus roper folks to.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Have Oh here you go.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: Oh that good?
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that sounds like a really great idea to me.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: Actually anyway, So let's I.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Want to go back into the car stuff for just
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: a minute longer. We do have some cool stuff we're
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: doing around the dealership. We just in the last couple
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: of weeks we launched a new uh uh it really
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: it's a web web appointment system allows you to schedule
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: your service appointments a little bit easier. But the cool
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: part about it is it now ties into our system
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: that which we do all of.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Our repair order work.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: It used to kind of sit as on the outside
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: as a kind of a Bolton product that we you know,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: we had to do a lot of re entry of
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: it into our system. Now they're seamlessly integrated. So you
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: schedule your appointment, we know what you know. If you've
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: been servicing with us, we know you know what you're needing.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: We can if we have parts connected to that service,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: so the dispatch happens of your work much quicker. It's
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: really design and we can also use that same system
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: to communicate with our customers.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: It has ways to.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Text and email and call, but also send photographs and
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: video of your vehicle if there's something we need to
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: show you. If you're not and here's you're back at
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: work and we need to show you something on the vehicle.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: We've also worked in the last couple of weeks to
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: put a new what's known in our industry as a
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: digital retailing system on our website. This is something I've
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: been working on for a couple of decades. Really not
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: that people buy cars on the web, but they do
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: like to go in and answer their simple questions about
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: what it costs and what's the payment, and what are
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: the incentives and what if I do this or that?
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: And you know, you used to have to go in and.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Spend all that time with a salesman and the sales manager.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Do they do their calculations or whatever they're.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: Doing, Well, they're up and walking back and forth. And
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: now you can do.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Almost all of that on your own at you sitting
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: on your couch or at work, and or you can
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: come in and do it with us and we actually
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: use that Will you be using that tool in the
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: store too, So it's on the website, it's in the store.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: What's cool is you can go and do a lot
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: of that preliminary work and then come come in and
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: you've saved so much time that we used to have
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: to spend collecting information entering it in there your credit app,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: you know your name, all the information about your trade
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: and what you want, and that way, when you come in,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: it's as simple as a test drive, understand getting answering
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: your questions about your vehicle and moving forward, you know.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: So it's a really trying to make that sales process
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: simpler and more transparent, easier for the customer, and faster.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: That's obviously time.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Is so critical to people these days, and you know
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: that whole customer experience.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: This is what we focus on. It done just and
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: trying to build that.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: You know, so that people are really it's about trust
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: and really in our business, I think that's the key thing,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: and our team really focus on that. Our non commissioned
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: sales professionals really take that to heart. They want to
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: serve people and make it a fast, transparent, feel good
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: experience when you buy your mixed car from us. And
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: we do have some great deals going now at the
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: end of the month on our toyotas.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: I've told some of the incentives here.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: We still got one point nine percent for up to
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: seventy two months on the Tundra, and Tacoma also has
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: a great lease on it because of Tacoma's incredible resale
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: value what they call a residual value in leasing.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: It just leases really well.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: You can lease one for two hundred and fifty nine
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: dollars a month for thirty six months.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: That is an incredibly low payment.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: And and you know so and a lot of Toyotas
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: are like that.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: We've got Corolla at.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: One ninety nine a month, and and so come check
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: it out.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, not everybody's going to lease their vehicle, but.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: It is something to look at in an alternative in
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: today's environment where we've all been faced with increasing costs
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: of everything, and and uh, you know, I think interest
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: rates are still just a little bit higher than then
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: most people would like. And you got used to a
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: few years ago a lot of zero percent interest rate
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: incentives and stuff, but you know that that's not not
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: out there right now. Typically, some some the manufacturers have them,
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: but you know, Toyota really doesn't do a lot of
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: heavy incentives on their vehicles, and that's one reason why
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: they retain their value so well as they they really
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: uh they're they're there. They're built so well, and they
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: last along and they perform to people's expectations, give you
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: a great economy of uh and service through the lifetime
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: and you know, so it just works out great on
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: a long term value perspective, costs per mile and for
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: the total ownership of the vehicle, and then you get
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: the most out of it when you're done with it too.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: So anyway, the other stuff go, I don't know, let's
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: remind people about the events you guys have going on.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: Starting tonight.
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: Hey, tonight, we are crossing second four to six. It'll
• 24:23
