Ken Benelli
Driven to excellence with a track record of succeeding as a small company leader in a large company arena, Ken has been successfully driving business to the major auto auctions. His success came by building relationships with and teaching dealer principals and their general managers on how to maximize their profits by efficiently managing their day unit inventory.
As Ken has grown AMP Remarketing, his Wholesale Business model has evolved and grown to include over 2,000 existing car buyers, including franchise car dealerships, independent dealers, and leasing companies. The AMP Remarketing selling model has shown dealers how to SELL MORE CARS FOR MORE MONEY, QUICKER!
The AMP Remarketing platform and selling system Ken has created takes advantage of his 25 years of relationships and selling expertise and leverages the technology available today that allows car dealers to market their cars 7 days a week on multiple online venues, backed-up with brick and mortar in lane selling, to bring them the highest possible price faster than any other sales process available today.
Let Ken show you how to “AMP UP YOUR PROFITS!”
