Everything else ➤ dealershipguy.com The Hidden System Behind the Country's Fastest-Growing EV Dealer Empire | Industry Spotlight
08/08/2026 | 33 minIn this episode of the Industry Spotlight, joining host Sam D'Arc are Alex Lawrence, CEO and co-founder of EVauto, and Chris Roig, Director of Sales Engineering at Netchex, to discuss how the country's largest EV-only dealer group is scaling into new states without letting payroll and HR become the bottleneck.
Alex reveals a payroll tax scare that nearly caught EVauto off guard and how a surprise refund from the IRS became a turning point.
Now growing toward 4,000 cars a year across three states, he explains why he trusts AI to approve timecards and overtime, and how automation flags problems like a 40 percent overtime spike before they hit the books.
Chris breaks down why switching payroll providers never means touching the dealer management system, and how EVauto is scaling into new markets without stacking headcount in the back office.
