John Freeman
From the President
First, I would like to start out by saying that HIADA is having a collections workshop Tuesday April 5 @ Big Texas Auto Auction. A special thank you goes out to Joe Lavigne for letting use his facility. For those of us who are in the Buy Here Pay Here business, we know that collections are the biggest part of what we do. We all know we can sell the vehicles, but collecting our money after the sale is another thing entirely. So sign up NOW while seating is still available.
Second, I would like to thank our membership committee (Rick Maroney, Bob Hawkins, Pablo Ruiz, Shayne Sabala and Michael Zak) as these guys deserve the Go Getter Award. They have signed up 39 new members. They have been working really hard for the association. When you see them, tell them thank you!
Thirdly, I would like to thank all of our Auction Members as they have been going the extra mile to help us in every way. When ask something of them, they are the first to say yes. Please give them a big thank you next time you are at one of our Houston auctions buying your cars.
Thanks and happy April!
