Congratulations to Mark Bonfigli and Dealer.com

I’d like to congratulate Mark Bonfigli, the CEO of Dealer.com on his recent award as an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year. This is an impressive honor being given to an impressive individual that leads an amazing company.

While I have absolutely no personal, financial or present business relationship with Dealer.com, I’ve come to understand it to be a true industry leader. Several months ago, I visited their offices in Burlington, Vermont and you can’t help but be impressed. Their office is a large converted warehouse with a purple bus parked out front with peace signs painted all over it. Set in the context of the granola-eating mountains of Vermont, this operation is a true testament to progressive thinking and management.

Inside their office, I found a high-tech working environment that includes a tennis and basketball court and natural food café. The workers are obviously spirited about their environment, products and leadership team. These guys have signed many of the most impressive dealer groups and OEM’s as clients. They are truly among the very best in understanding dealer needs and delivering cutting-edge solutions.

Congratulations to Mark and his talented management team.
