Mike Clites

Michael Clites started his career in the automotive industry in 1995. After an honorable discharge from the Marine Corps, in 1999 he continued to complete a degree in Automotive Technology while working at a Honda dealership - ultimately becoming an ASC Certified & Honda Technician, Service Advisor, and Service Manager. His move into the variable side of the business was motivated by his passion to understand how things work, with a goal of managing a Dealership one day. His career progressed to the sales department as a Salesman, developed a BDC department, New Car Sales Manager, and Used Car Sales Director.

In 2016 Michael had the opportunity to work for vAuto as a Performance Consultant. His path would lead him back to the dealership where he would graduate from NADA and become a General Sales Manager. Michael prides himself in having experience in both sales and fixed operations, but most importantly mastering the merchandising, and marketing aspects of the automotive business. Michael is equipped with nearly 3 decades of hands-on experience, and the education to assist dealers to exceed their goals.
