MARRY YOUR CRMYOUR DEALERSHIP’S CRM RULES

Every dealership MUST adopt a CRM-Driven Culture Throughout all departments of the dealership. No individual is exempt nor excused from using the full capacity of the system.

Every manager must be aware of their numbers… and their employees’ numbers

The dealer principal and the GM must know how to operate and how to read the CRM

MARRY YOUR PROCESSESAVERAGE PEOPLE WITH GREAT PROCESSES CAN

PRODUCE INCREDIBLE RESULTS

The ‘Biggest Failure’ of most Dealerships is Management’s FailureTo stick to their processes. Managers make excuses and exceptions for certain employees.

Do what You Say You Do… Do it Every Time, Without Exception … The Process Rules

NO 2nd RATE DEPARTMENTS … NO 2nd RATE MANAGERS

Being a Manager is a Position of Dignity, Authority and Respect. Dealership Culture Will NOT Tolerate any Employee Disrespecting a Manager, or Bypassing or Short-Cutting the Process, or Failing to Completely use the CRM in the Sale and Follow-Up

PRODUCTIVITY REQUIRES COMMUNICATION

Your Dealership Must Establish a Clear and Well-Defined Procedure for the Hand-Off and Interaction Between the Sales Department, The BDC, and The F&I Department.

Rather Than an Internet Department; You Must Evolve into an “Internet Dealership”.
