From Car Kid to Dealer Group Owner | Adi Desai’s Journey with DoubleClutch.ca & Advantage Auto Group

from Behind the Business · host faheemsavja

Adi Desai turned a childhood obsession into a career—first launching DoubleClutch.ca in 2012, then pivoting into ownership with Advantage Auto Group (Hyundai &Stellantis). He shares how automotive journalism opened doors, why he built relationship-first stores to counter dealer stereotypes, and what COVID taught him about cash flow, team retention, and resilience. We also get real aboutfamily balance, South Asian expectations, and growing the thick skin entrepreneurship demands. Stay connected with #behindthebusiness : 📱 Instagram: https://instagram.com/behindthebiz_pod📱 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/behind-the-business-podcast/
