Joe Crisafio
Motor Trade Consultant

With over two decades working across franchised dealer groups, manufacturer networks, and independent operators, I bring a ground-level understanding of how dealerships actually function — and where the gaps really lie.

I've held senior roles in aftersales management, group operations, and manufacturer retail development, giving me a 360° view that pure consultants rarely have. My engagements are always hands-on: I work alongside your people, not just from a spreadsheet.

  • Franchised dealer group experience (volume & prestige)
  • Manufacturer retail development background
  • Independent — no vendor or OEM affiliate bias
  • Fixed-term and ongoing retainer engagements available
