Session  topics:

August – Getting & Keeping the Right People: Leadership Success Secrets

Growing a business requires growing your team. This class will teach you practical leadership techniques to build an engaged and motivated workforce capable of changing with the times. We will also cover methods to better manage time and take proactive control of the business operations.

September – Know Your Numbers

The foundation of every successful business depends on management’s ability to not only know what to measure but also how to take action. In Know Your Numbers  you will learn a small number of critical metrics that anyone can learn to empower them to run a profitable business.

October – Scheduling & Maximizing Your Workflow

In many shops, chaos ruins the day. What most shops don’t realize is that chaos’ primary contributor is “work in process” (WIP). During Scheduling & Maximizing Your Workflow you will receive the education and tools to determine how many repair jobs to bring in each day and also what mix of small, medium and large jobs to create more productivity with less stress.

November – Differentiating Your Business Through the Customer Experience

There are many marketing strategies available to collision repairers, but none more effective than word of mouth. This month’s program reveals the real reasons customers will (or won’t) refer a shop to friends and family. This class will empower you to “own” customers for life and build an army of raving fans.

December – Making 2025 Your Best Year Ever

It’s time to implement what we’ve learned so we can make 2025 the best year ever! Too often shop leaders don’t apply what they’ve learned because of push-back from their employees or because they simply don’t know where to start.  In this impactful class we teach critical “influence” strategies to get the team on board with any implementation effort.  

Creating your best life and business starts with knowing where you want to go and then taking the right action today. Dave will teach his time-tested time management practices so shop leaders can invest their valuable time on what matters most and take back control of their businesses.
