Service Advisor Training Workshops

John Dillon of John Dillon Consulting, Inc. has been training in dealership service departments nationwide since 1998. The biggest business growth opportunity John says he sees from dealership to dealership is effective use of the Multi Point Inspection form and the key processes that support it.

The average dealer retention rate nationally is 30%. That means 7 out of 10 customers take their retail business elsewhere and NEVER come back.

If service operations in dealerships would just stop and focus their efforts, time and resources in a consistent and effective use of the multi point inspection sheet and process they would tap thousands of dollars in profitable service business that is driving off of their service drives everyday! Most importantly they would build relationships with their service customers that would keep them from taking their business to the Independent service providers and sell service for life, not to mention repeat vehicle purchase opportunities in the sales department.

Tap the potential that drives on and off of your service drive every day WITHOUT adding one customer, one hour of business, or one penny on marketing or advertising.

You Do The Math

The hours per retail RO increase you will realize immediately by applying what you learn in these workshops is a minimum of 0.3 HPRO.

If you write 300 ROs/month at an effective rate of $65/hour and sell 0.85 C in parts to every dollar of labor, you have just added $10,822 in sales to your fixed operations without incurring any additional costs! The best part is you'll repeat it over and over and over.
