Another California company is moving its headquarters to the Dallas area. And this time, it’s one at the intersection of the technology and automotive industries.
DealerSocket is relocating its home base to Irving from San Clemente, California, in Orange County, according to CEO Sejal Pietrzak. The software company, which helps auto dealerships manage customer relationships and transactions, has roughly 1,000 employees overall.
The Dallas area provides some key advantages, including a talented work force, a business-friendly environment and a central location for reaching customers, she said. The moves comes after DealerSocket made three acquisitions in the North Texas area in 2015.
“It’s a great place to live and to work,” Pietrzak said. “It’s a great place to have our headquarters.”

Tuesday afternoon, Frisco officials approved the city's share of an incentives package that would total more than $160 million — more than twice the $64 million Toyota received when it agreed to bring its headquarters here along with 4,000 jobs.
In Frisco, the association will anchor a 600-acre, mixed-use development that includes championship golf courses, a resort hotel, conference center space and the association's headquarters.
Its new home will house at least 100 workers and cost the PGA at least $30 million to build. The association eventually hopes to increase the local workforce to 250.
