Recently we hosted a webinar specifically for NYSADA member dealerships located in New York City. This program addressed advertising regulations, administered by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA). Presenting for the DCA were Marla Tepper, General Counsel; Dawn Yuster, Deputy Director of Research and Investigation and Penny Vachiraprapun. For more information see the DCA's "Consumer Users Guide" or the DCA’s publication, “NYC Consumer Protection Law in Brief". These guidelines only cover a portion of possible automotive advertising issues. If you have a specific question about automotive adverting in New York City, please contact the Association at (518) 463-1148 and speak with Ed Richardson (ext.210).
Recently, NYSADA Board of Directors met at West Point for a two-day meeting to discuss the myriad of issues currently confronting our members. Chairman, Howard Kuperman, in his comments to the Board, said that, “our business has been through many challenges in the
past and with each - comes new ideas, management skills and technologies to make us better. I am certain that our industry will make it through these unprecedented times and that the next time, we converse at this meeting, we will be back to some sort of normalcy. Even the best writer in the world could not have written the story of this past year. If history is our guide, soon the economy will turn positive, as it always does, and because of this downturn we will be better and smarter dealers. We are an industry of survivors…hopefully the manufacturers will be as smart as us.”. more news..
