Our Training + Your Commitment = Results
Thanks for a great management workshop - it was a real eye-opener.
"Hello Joe. Thanks for a great management workshop - it was a real eye-opener. Right from the start of the workshop, I started to see the true potential in my store. With each hour in those 2 days, the amount of true potential just kept growing. Since I returned from the workshop, I have never been more excited for my position as a manager and for the opportunities I realized that we have to grow and improve. When I got back to the dealership, I started tracking and charting my team using their 90-day averages that we talked about in class. Then using their averages, we started setting daily, weekly, and monthly improvement goals based on those numbers. I also use their averages to forecast our store numbers and set our monthly dealership goals based on those facts. No more highball sessions - now we just set realistic goals and we know how to hit them! I started meeting with each person on my sales team as we reviewed their progress bi-weekly and monthly. What a difference that has made, because it enabled me to recognize the specific training that each individual needed. We also started having 90-day contests based on their current averages, and I posted their averages on the wall. Like you said to expect, we got a nice unit bump just from letting everyone know where they were, where they stood compared to the stores average, and how they compared to everyone else's averages as well. Joe, we've just skimmed the surface on improving in our store. I loved how small changes from what we learned equal massive income potential! That goes double and or triple in the car business!" Eric Altman, Sales Manager, Phil Fitts Ford & Lincoln, New Castle, PAThanks to your training, we're closing more deals to happier customers every day!
"After your 2-day management workshop (Team Leadership) we immediately implemented your 90 day tracking to find everyone's current averages. And now every manager is involved in the group training and one on ones so everyone is on the same page doing the same thing, the same way, every time. Our managers are leading the group sales training with your online training (JVTN®) on Mondays and Fridays. We memorized those percentages about our customers because the more my team believes they are all buyers, the stronger they'll be as salespeople. Your questions have become the basis of everything we do to work smarter, not harder. Asking the right questions allows us to give the customer a "world class presentation and Demonstration" and build the value in ourselves, the product, and our dealership. They've gotten those 45 (value) yesses in 45 minutes and their confidence is incredible now. They know they have a car deal when they bring it to my office, and so do I. Thanks to your training we are closing more deals and earning more happier customers every day! Thanks Joe for such an amazing workshop and your sales training online." Will Jetton, Sales Manager, Jones Motor Company, Savannah, TN$26K to $139K to $176K and now $200K because of Joe Verde!
"Before Joe's training I was a 4 to 8 car guy, struggling to provide for my family. I was working 50+ hours per week and only making $22-26K per year. Because of your workshops, online JVTN® training and monthly planner, I'm now consistently one of the top two guys at my dealership. Last year I went from $139K to $176K! I'm on the road to $200K this year! I owe a lot to the team at Joe Verde. Thank you!" John Williams, Assistant Manager, Serpentini Chevrolet Buick of Orrville, Orrville, OHFrom 4 a month to 21 after your sales workshop.
"In 2008 I was brand and selling 4 cars a month - trying to figure it out. Then I attended your 3 day sales workshop a couple months later. Your 8-step process was crystal clear in what I needed to do with every customer, and in my first full month after your class I sold 21 units. That workshop and your training was exactly what a salesperson needs, a blueprint for success in the car business. Your class gave me the keys to my success and I knew I could continue to develop the skills I learned there. I've since been promoted and attended your Team Leadership workshop. We also have JVTN® and I love it because it's available 24/7. I can pull up a training Chapter and work with my team on any given area, at any time and I can target training to their individual needs during our 1 on 1s. Even more important, I know that no matter what Chapter they train on, they'll receive a solid, consistent message of exactly what I have been telling them. We have everyone working the same process now, and our deals are getting easier, the gross is getting higher, and our customers are much happier. Thanks Joe!" Dan Bernardo, Sales Manager, Grant Miller Motors, Vegreville, AB$900 per car improvement on gross.
"We launched JVTN® in June, and have been increasingly getting better every month since. We're doing group training 5x a week - all managers are involved and take turns leading the team sessions. We're taking the chapters, discussing the chapters, and then practicing and drilling the scripts daily. My team has a solid process to build upon (Joe's New Basics) and we are committed as a team to the process and continually moving forward. As managers we were taught and were always asking the guys at the desk, 'Where do they want to be at?' NO MORE! We have adopted your process of bypassing price on every deal and our gross per car has increased steadily.• June, we increased it by $200 per car.
• July, we added another $400 per car.
• August added another $300 per car. ($900 total improvement).
We are on track to more than double it vs. last year's same month this month. When you can start more deals at sticker, build more value than before and have a budget focused negotiation, everyone wins. Our customers and employees are happier and our sales team is more excited, they are having more fun and we are all making more money. Joe, thanks for showing us how to thrive even during a pandemic!" Nolan Fisher, GSM, Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge, Billings, MT
