RIVERSIDE, CA (November 20, 2013) -- Auto Expert, an auto locating and buying service, recently hosted a gathering of its partner credit unions in Southern California to discuss the current economic climate, best practices and other hot topics.
“We invited our credit union partners together to discuss lending strategies, best practices with Auto Expert and growth strategies,” said Auto Expert President Chris Andrus. “Plus we put things in context by examining the current Southern California economic environment and expectations for the future of the local economy.”
Representatives from Auto Expert’s partner credit unions were invited to the conference at a local hotel. Altura, Vons, SCE FCU, Logix FCU and Orange County’s Credit Union were among those that participated.
“The Conference was very informative and allowed leaders of different financial institutions that support Auto Expert to continue toshare best practices that will ultimately improve each organization’s overall performance,” said Art Aguilar, vice president of Branch Sales, for Logix.
“Auto Expert and their representatives have a great working relationship with Logix Federal Credit Union as they serve the members with the same high level of service and professionalism that Logix FCU is known for,” Aguilar added.
Andrus pointed out, “We thought this type of information sharing was a good way to add value to our partnership with Southern California credit unions using Auto Expert to assist their members with auto locating and buying. And, we’re getting quite a bit of appreciative feedback.
