Meet Benny Black of Platinum Motorcars Dallas

Today we’d like to introduce you to Benny Black.

So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
16 years ago, I told my wife I want to figure out a way we can drive nice cars and not have to pay for them.

My first client was a professional athlete. That’s what allowed me to penetrate that fraternity. But at the time, I did not have any cars, so I borrowed cars from dealers who had lease returns coming in. After 10 competitors over the 16-year period have all gone out of business, we are still here.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Not a smooth road at all. Sourcing inventory was the biggest challenge. Once demand was created, this became an even larger problem, so I had to figure out ways of keeping consistent high-end inventory, as well as document and create the perfect formula for a bank to loan money against these kinds of vehicles while showing all my efforts to lower risk for the banks and investors on this venture,
