Who Should Attend?
Service Advisors, Shop Managers, and anyone wanting to grow skills specific to growing sales skills, managing service counter workflow, increasing gross profit, and growing customer satisfaction.
Program Description:
During this unusual time in our history, Service Advisors may find more time available to develop and practice skills. Now is the time to take advantage of the mental space to fine-tune word tracks, consider sales process, and practice telephone selling with one another.
The focus of this program is on skill development, customer relations, employee relations, and ensuring the profitability of each repair order. It is recognized that due to the current unique business environment that actual growth of the business is likely dependent on a return to some sort of normal traffic counts in the future, however each skill learned, and practiced, applies to every customer and repair order whether that’s limited to two cars a day, or fifty cars each day.
What you can expect:
ü Dashboard Virtual Coaching Tool ($150/mo - normally offered at $250/mo)
ü Book: Managing Employees When Turnover is Not an Option ($17)
ü Book: Service Management Made Simple 2nd Edition ($17)
ü Book: Selling Automotive Service ($17)
Class Expectations: Active participation and skill development is expected from all participants. Due to the relative proximity of participants, group participants will not be expected to share specific KPI’s, actual processes or specific challenges with the group.
