In this episode, special guest host Jamye Carpenter sits down with Kelly Bianchi, President of AuctionVCommerce, for a powerful and inspiring conversation about transforming one of the most traditional industries—auto auctions—through technology, entrepreneurship, and heart. Kelly shares her unconventional journey from catering to concierge to tech entrepreneur, her drive to modernize the auction experience, and how her platform has helped independent auctions evolve their digital presence and customer service capabilities.
Together, Kelly and Jamye explore the importance of mindset shifts in legacy industries, the impact of COVID on digital adoption, the role of virtual and augmented reality in future auction experiences, and how AI might shape the next chapter. They also discuss the founding of GROW, a mentorship network that supports women in the industry by lifting each other up through authentic stories and shared experiences.
Whether you're passionate about innovation, women in leadership, or finding opportunity where others see resistance, this episode is a must-listen.
