CHAD COLLIER

Chad Collier, Founder and CEO of CarSaver, is widely regarded as one of the most innovative entrepreneurs in automotive tech. During the course of his career he has founded, built, and sold several auto tech companies including Imalooker, an AI assisted selling solution, CarFactor, one of the first and most downloaded consumer facing auto apps, and CarSaver, an automotive fintech platform and marketplace that helps consumers buy, finance, and insure all brands of new and used cars online. 

 

CarSaver’s innovative online marketplace technology has become the go to offering for Nissan, Walmart, and many of America’s largest banks and credit unions. These national partnerships, along with Collier’s leadership, have earned CarSaver numerous accolades, including the 2021 PACE award from Automotive News and recognition as an Inc. 5000 top private company in America.

 

Passionately driven by both his Native American heritage as a Chickasaw citizen and strong desire to enter the auto business, Collier began his professional journey as a lot attendant. He quickly ascended to general management positions, and in 2004 Collier became the youngest non-succession Ford dealer in Ford history. His dealerships were so successful that he received the “Innovative Dealer of the Year” award from Automotive News in 2008, and the last dealership under his leadership was acquired by AutoNation, the largest automotive retailer in the U.S. Collier achieved this success by the age of 32. Now 44, Collier has his sights set on leading CarSaver to becoming the number one online auto-buying marketplace in the U.S.
