Testimonials

“Jack has been a consultant for Thompson Automotive since 2013. He is an accountant with a ‘car guy’ background, having worked in both the office and on the showroom floor. He is level-headed and thinks well on his feet. Jack is comfortable with whatever level of staff is in the room; be it clerks, controllers, managers, or owners. He has been extremely helpful and very thorough with every project he has been involved in for us.”

“In today’s business climate and especially in the automotive segment, it is rare to find a ‘money’ man whose word is his bond and possesses such a high level of talent. Jack is good at what he does. He is ethical, fair, hardworking, and knows his stuff. He talks in common-sense solutions that I like. The fact that Jack has experience as a CFO just adds to his credibility . . .”

“With all the buy/sells going on it’s essential that you get proper accounting systems and processes early in the transition. Jack knows how and can be trusted to not only set things up but to periodically check to see how [it] is performing . . . . you need a professional. Jack Lee will give you the professional and transparent accounting every dealer must have.”

“It has been my privilege to know Jack Lee of Auto Dealer Consulting for more than 24 years. Jack served as CFO of our family-owned, multi-franchise dealerships for eleven of those years. His expertise in the financial world was invaluable to us. Later, when the decision was made to sell the dealerships we called upon Jack to guide us through the closing process. This was accomplished with very few rough spots as he was monitoring the procedure. With Jack, you get the whole package: Knowledge, Experience, Honesty, and Integrity.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Jack both directly and indirectly for over 30 years. His influence in the industry has been quite far-reaching, but not surprising based on his work ethic, knowledge, and skillset. I consider Jack, not just an associate, but a friend, and someone that is honest, trustworthy and that can always be relied upon to do the right thing.”

“Jack and his associate, Tom Hunt, were brought on board to assist with the transition from an exiting Group Controller to a replacement. They were able to identify, organize, professionally present the many general ledger accounts and schedules that are necessary to operate and account for four busy, high volume stores.”

Stephen Kearney, CFO
DARCARS Automotive Group
Silver Spring, Maryland

“Jack was initially referred to us to help with some bank/credit card reconciliation issues. After solving that, he spent a few days on-site with our CFO and Controller to identify and fix issues with our centralized accounting department, Dealertrack, and general ledger management. I really liked his down-to-earth, fundamental, back-to-basic approach to processes we tend to make complicated.”

Todd Ouellette, Owner/President
Long-Lewis Auto Group

“The professional services of Jack Lee, and his team at Auto Dealer Consulting, enabled us to maintain consistency in our daily financial operations. I initially reached out to Jack for some assistance with an exiting Controller, and the crucial work involved with finding his replacement. Tom Hunt, one of Jack’s associates, came onsite for four consecutive months to aid us with this critical transition; working side by side with our existing financial team. Because of Tom’s assistance, knowledge, and experience we were able to complete our monthly financial reports and factory statements in a timely manner. Tom's expertise afforded me the luxury of extending my search for a permanent replacement and qualified candidate.”

“I’ve been fortunate to have known Jack Lee for 10+ years. When my Controller quit unexpectedly and we needed some help I turned to Jack and Auto Dealer Consulting, LLC. I would recommend Jack and his team to anyone that needs automotive accounting experience”
