Trusted Advisor to Dealer Principals
When the decision involves your leadership, a transition, or the future of your dealership, you need someone who has actually built the car business — not a broker, not a recruiter, not a banker. Someone who understands what's at stake because he's been there himself.
Your Transition. Your Terms.
Before you talk to a broker, a banker, or a buyer, you need an honest outside voice with no transaction to close. David Melton engages before the pressure starts — when leverage can still be shaped, and the outcome is still yours to define.
Your Capital. Working for You.
For most dealer principals, real estate is the most underleveraged component of enterprise value. David Melton helps align the ownership structure, capital positioning, and real estate strategy with long-term operational and transition objectives.
Your Leadership. Your Team.
An underperforming dealership is almost always a leadership problem first. David Melton helps dealer principals assess, strengthen, and develop the leadership teams their organizations need to perform at the level to which they were built.
