The Secret of Ordering Cheese Toast

Every Saturday morning The ANE Show talks about Automotive, News, and Celebrity updates.  However, on the show January 18, 2014 which can be heard weekly on 1190 AM or iHeart Radio Josh “The Guru” Deaton and “The Spin Doctor” bantered back and forth about their business trips they take on behalf of DeliveryMaxx.

The ANE Show has been touted as a very informative show about automotive news for consumers, but the radio show isn’t like most automotive talk shows. The ANE Show’s cast includes Josh “The Guru” Deaton and “The Spin Doctor” James Schaefer who are founders and executive officers of DeliveryMaxx. Their team on the show consist of Jim Proctor, manager of Dodge City of McKinney, Jeff “Bubba” Thompson who is Jim’s right hand man in the dealership, Paul Salfen who is Co-Host of the Drew Pearson Show and actress/model Jennifer Reed.

Each of the characters play an important role within the show, but often it is “The Spin Doctor” sharing stories of “The Guru” and the funny situations they put themselves in. During the January 18th episode, Schaefer brought up how Deaton refuses to pay extra for a grilled cheese sandwich with his meal. Deaton will always order a side of toast, and ask to have a slice or two pieces of cheese placed on top of the bread. In most of our homes we call this a grilled cheese sandwich. However, “The Guru” has coined the phrase #cheesetoast. You can follow the show on Twitter @TheANEShow or Facebook.

Last week, with camera in hand; “The Spin Doctor” decided to let The ANE Show listeners in on the secret of ordering cheese toast without having to pay for a grilled cheese sandwich.  

Watch the video and see how it is done, then share your crazy stories of what you get away with during dinner!

The ANE Show are Rock Stars of Talk Radio

A few months ago, Jim Proctor and Jeff Thompson of Dodge City of McKinney met up with the Founders of DeliveryMaxx; Josh Deaton and James Schaefer to discuss developing a radio show that provided fun, entertainment, celebrity updates, current news, and important automotive information from a consumer perspective.  Thus, The ANE Show was born and has created a strong buzz across the airwaves.  The ANE Show characters have become “Rock Stars of Talk Radio”!

Both Proctor who goes by “Doc” on the show, and Thompson who is known as “Bubba” have always wanted to provide an Automotive Show that would help consumers with their buying and vehicle maintenance needs.  Although there are other automotive shows; their vast experience and knowledge of the demographics of today’s drivers made them realize that the typical automotive show did not provide any entertainment for the listeners.  That is when they turned to the boys from DeliveryMaxx.

Josh “The Guru” Deaton and “The Spin Doctor” James Schaefer have developed a patent-pending digital program with their company that helps automotive dealerships and other clients engage in “Real Conversations” with consumers and potential buyers.  The DeliveryMaxx solution is a one-of-a-kind program that helps companies improve their online reputation and social media presence.  By adding DeliveryMaxx to The ANE Show, listeners have become very loyal to the cast and feel like they are in the studio with these guys.  With DeliveryMaxx, listeners can communicate with the show by following on Twitter or Facebook.  Every question that is asked puts the listener into a drawing for upcoming Dallas Stars or Dallas Mavericks tickets.

Knowing that big names attract more listeners; these four guys looked at what they call “The Pretty People” in the industry.  Added to the show were “The Coolest Guy in Dallas” Paul Salfen and the beautiful actress/model Jennifer Reed.  Listeners get to hear stories from celebrities like Matthew McConaughey, Metallica, Ice Cube, Kevin Hart, and Ben Stiller.  All have shared wonderful insights on upcoming movies, and provided listeners with inside information into their personal lives.

This cast of characters, and we do mean “characters” spend Saturdays providing great information, but they have fun doing it to.  There is no telling what will be said on air, because they are real people with real stories.  When listeners tune the radio in on 1190 AM they will hear a cast talking about weekly news stories.  It is truly “water cooler” talk at its finest.

Nothing is safe, and Bubba, “The Guru” and “The Spin Doctor” have been known to get into trouble at home for sharing too many family secrets.  What would you expect from a guy who boasts about his mullet during his high school days, someone who has a donkey as a pet, or one who claims to be the best little league coach in the Dallas area?  (Tune in to see which story goes with who).

Paul Salfen and Jennifer Reed grace the cover of magazines and can be seen at various times when perusing through the TV channels.  Not only do they experience the life of the Rich and Famous; they gossip about it as well.  These two will share how “the other people” live.

Now, this show would not happen without the Doc keeping everyone in check.  Proctor makes sure that each show goes off without a hitch despite the efforts of the cast trying to take the show down treacherous curves.

The ANE Show airs every Saturday at 9 AM on KFXR 1190AM.  It is a one hour radio talk show with four segments which include automotive, news, celebrity updates, and great information.  For more information about the most talked about radio show in Dallas visit http://www.theANEShow.com.

The ANE Show: Too Sexy for TV

The ANE Show is Dallas’ premiere talk radio show and airs every Saturday at 9 a.m. on 1190AM KFXR to discuss the latest automotive news and entertainment.  While many listeners enjoy listening to the witty banter, we are often asked the same question.  “Why isn’t The ANE Show on TV?”  At long last we are going to answer the question that is plaguing everyone’s minds, and the answer is simple: The ANE Show is TOO sexy for TV.

Basically, the cast of The ANE Show is like “The Village People 2.0.”  Dethroning the original boy band with the coveted title of being the sexiest group ever known to man.  And you thought Jenn Reed was the only attractive one in the cast.

When Jim “Doc” Proctor, longtime GM of Dodge City of McKinney met with Josh “The Guru” Deaton and James “Spin Doctor” Schaefer of DeliveryMaxx to conceptualize The ANE Show, the original idea was for a television show.  However, after a few meetings with executives they were quick to outlaw the handsome cast of the show from ever appearing on the small screen for fear of quickly downgrading Ryan Seacrest to only being the 7th handsome man on cable and putting him in a depressed state.

Don’t worry Seacrest, The ANE Show will keep their sexy confined to the radio…for now. 

You can enjoy the sexiest radio show on the airwaves every Saturday at 9 a.m. on 1190AM KFXR or iHeart Radio.  Keep up with us on Facebook or follow on Twitter @TheANEShow and don’t forget to tune in, and cuddle up and let the sexy ones entertain you!

Southwest KIA Dealership Group Recognized by Automotive News

Automotive News has long been the primary source of industry news, data and understanding for the industry’s decision-makers interest in North America.  Since 1925 when the newspaper was founded; Automotive News found new ways to provide information and value to meet the changing needs of its readers.

In May, Automotive News held a roundtable event in Dallas, Texas in hopes that ideas provided by participants would improve automotive dealerships employee morale, revenue stream, and savings thus increasing the bottom line.  With today’s consumer having a plethora of choices of where to buy their next vehicle, dealerships are always looking for ways to gain additional market share by attracting new customers.  The automotive consumer has changed the way they find their new car, truck, or suv.  With the inception of the internet, car research and buying can take place 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  “The consumer knows exactly what kind of vehicle they want for the price they want to pay” says, Steve Dodge, General Manager of Southwest KIA Rockwall.  “Nowadays, a buyer will know just about everything there is to know about the dealership including the salespeople who are employed before they arrive on the dealership floor.”  The average consumer is doing all of the research on the internet and statistics show they are visiting 1.3 dealerships versus shopping 4.6 dealerships in years past.  Dodge also adds, “Not only is the consumer using the internet to select a great dealership to buy from, but they are also using the internet to deselect dealerships that don’t look appealing.”

The roundtable session provided attendees with great ideas they would be able to implement at each of their dealerships.  Some of these ideas included hiring non-commission sales people to lessen the negotiation pressure consumers have long been accustom to when making a new vehicle purchase to the recruiting of college graduates erasing the image of the “used-car salesman” perception.

Southwest KIA Dealership Group with locations in Mesquite, Rockwall, and Dallas created the most excitement at the conference by presenting an idea they have been utilizing with outstanding success for the past couple of years provided by a company named DeliveryMaxx.  “Utilizing DeliveryMaxx services has allowed us to create a forum for our customers to share their great experiences on the web.  Our CSI scores, sales, service, and online reviews have increased dramatically with this program” exclaims James Seale, General Manager of Southwest KIA Mesquite.  “They are like three companies in one because they provide a way for our customers to share their great experiences with the world through a custom review portal that we control at the dealership.  DeliveryMaxx helps us market to potential customers by taking a picture at the time of delivery, and then embeds code and our dealership branding pushing this advertising to all of the friends and family of the customer who just bought a new vehicle.  Because of this, our referrals and online reputation have gone up allowing us to sell more cars.”  With DeliveryMaxx and Southwest KIA’s “Customer First” mentality; the dealership has had unprecedented growth and received numerous awards and recognition for their customer service. 

The Southwest KIA Dealerships continue to stay ahead of their counterparts utilizing new and innovative tools to make their customers feel welcomed.  They have long held the belief that a happy customer becomes a customer for life.  “Decisions on buying a vehicle is no longer about price, but about how much the dealership cares for its customers.  People will share their experience, and utilizing DeliveryMaxx’s program, our customers have helped us win additional buyers.”  For Southwest KIA Dealerships contribution to the roundtable discussion they were awarded recognition for one of the “Best New Ideas” of the session.

“We are honored and very excited that Southwest KIA has been recognized for their contributions to the automotive industry.  Because of their desire to be the dealership of choice; they have been very instrumental in our development of new technology.  James and Steve both suggested that they would love to have their reviews with pictures scrolling across their website.  We just took that idea a little further, and made it possible providing code that they could target market a particular vehicle to customers disseminating the reviews by make and model.  DeliveryMaxx is also about to launch our new smartphone app within 30 days that will allow online reviews and social media marketing happen within minutes of the customer purchasing a vehicle versus 24 hours from the time they made a purchase” explains James Schaefer, Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder of DeliveryMaxx.

In addition to collecting reviews, marketing great experiences of happy customers; DeliveryMaxx also writes unlimited blogs, post special events, and participates in event marketing with the North Texas dealerships.

“Southwest KIA has been as helpful to us as we have been to them.  They are great at what they do, and the people they have are some of the best in the industry.  DeliveryMaxx just provides the technology, service, and platform that make it possible for the Southwest KIA story to be told” says Josh Deaton, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of DeliveryMaxx.

Southwest KIA Dallas, Southwest KIA of Rockwall, and Southwest KIA of Mesquite are prime examples of growth within the North Texas automotive market.  This group of family owned dealerships expanded from a single point in 2001 into five stores throughout Texas in less than ten years. The Southwest Dealer Group is currently ranked well within the top 125 highest volume selling automotive groups in the United States by Automotive News.
