You’ll gain more confidence on financial information, you’ll gain more confidence on KPI, and you’ll gain more confidence to develop best practice and operational performance improvement in the Service Department.
If you understand most of your KPI and financial information, but maybe have a few doubts about certain terminology or KPI, and you want to learn how to be the master of it all, then this masterclass is for you.
The Power of Networking Should Never Be Underestimated When You’re Here
It doesn’t matter if you’re working in a large franchised dealership or a small independent workshop, you’ll be working with the latest cutting-edge information to develop your business and best practice.
Jeff is the master of managing a group of people with mixed abilities and objectives so you all learn together without feeling lost or out of your depth. You’ll be meeting and networking with people from other businesses that you wouldn’t normally meet, these encounters are often invaluable, especially over dinner at the end of the day.
This masterclass is highly recommended for:

Perhaps more importantly, he’ll also show you how certain KPI are linked together and how they are interdependent upon each other to create harmony and synergy in your Service Department so your results are consistent, and your budgeting and business planning is accurate.
