DealerMedics Team
EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE
Our pleasure to meet you!
President & founder
Rico Olinger
Rico started his Automotive career in 2006, selling Pre-Owned vehicles in Calgary, Canada. Since then, he also saw action in New Vehicle Sales, Lease Manager, Internet Sales Manager, Sales Manager, and Digital Operations Manager for a 21-store group of dealerships in Canada.
In addition to his impressive sales career, Rico is an expert CRM architect and strategist with a proven track record using DealerSocket. His outside-of-the-box thinking got him invited as the only Canadian to join the DealerSocket Consultant Network (DCN), a highly vetted group of CRM experts that consult with dealers on strategies that bridge their unique selling philosophies to car deals. In 2016 Rico joined the conference circuit, filling rooms to capacity with ways to win inside the CRM.
Rico is originally from Brazil but has called Canada “home” for over 30 years. He holds a World Title with Team Canada in Culinary Arts, and has been known to put a nice meal together from time to time! When there’s downtime, Rico is an avid sports fisherman preferring the Pacific to the Atlantic; he plays tennis and volleyball to stay active and enjoys time with his two sons and the love of his life!
