There is a scourge in the auto industry – in our opinion.
Some want technology to replace the role of a salesperson and/or an advisor…
Some want to hire fewer people, pay them less and let technology move into more of the customer relationship. Our co-founder and CEO grew up with a Dad who was a dealer. A Dad that despite the odds a made it through WWII without finishing high school, grew his skills and became a dealer. Dave continued his father’s legacy by going into the business while in college and now has a son in the car business. He has watched people just like his Dad – work their way up from washing cars to selling cars to being a GM of a dealership. He along with the Quantum⁵ team, believe that it doesn’t have to end.

2020 brought about significant changes in the way we interact with others.
From virtual meetings to virtual test drives, we’ve seen a major shift in how we serve our people. The sales process became more about customer convenience, offering us an opportunity to experience products in new ways and connect deeper with our own needs as people.
Quantum⁵ curriculum creator and co-founder David O’Brien, saw this trying time as an opportunity to transform the automotive sales experience into a sustainable relationship building process that people actually enjoy. Motivated by his father’s legacy and his strong family ties to the business, Dave wanted to use his skills to give back to the industry that gave him so much over the years. With razor sharp focus on social advocacy and armed with years of experience in both automotive sales and behavioral psychology techniques, Dave and his team of industry professionals partnered with Ken Herfurth to produce an AI-based social advocacy delivery platform to provide these newly adapted sales training journeys.
