Keepers is also executive director of the Motor Vehicle Protection Products Association and Service Contract Industry Council. He monitors the federal and state-level legislative, regulatory and legal environments. The three organizations last year launched an effort to bring together lenders, product providers and dealers to address compliance challenges related to add-on products.

Jones oversees all financial operations at Car Pros and became CFO in 2018, while Kunes has more than 18 years of experience in the dealership business.
The free webinar, moderated by AFN Editor Amanda Harris, will explore challenges dealers and lenders face when it comes to the sale and management of ancillary products such as service contracts and guaranteed asset protection (GAP) coverage and help professionals improve aftermarket sales.
