Kevin Richard

I am an accomplished finance and sales professional with over 10 years of experience, specializing in financial administration and revenue growth. Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated the ability to drive multi-million-dollar revenues, build strong client relationships, and optimize business operations.

As an Independent Financial Consultant since January 2023, I have focused on developing tailored solutions for dealership groups, enhancing operational efficiency, and leveraging CRM tools for forecasting and maximizing revenue. From 2020 to 2022, as a Finance Director at Genthe Automotive Company, I successfully managed contracts, improved lender relations, and directed a team of over 50 employees, achieving over $1 million in backend sales. I also conducted audits and ensured regulatory compliance.

Previously, as Finance Manager at Champion Automotive Group (2017-2020), I led meetings with sales teams, improved financial metrics, and raised profits by building relationships with national lenders. I also provided financial consultations to clients and identified suitable insurance products, boosting customer satisfaction and sales.

My technical skills span various tools, including Microsoft Office Suite, Bloomberg Terminal, Salesforce, Reynolds & Reynolds, and more. 

I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance and a Bachelor of Arts and Science in Philosophy from Western Michigan University.
