As your other New Year s resolutions fade, why not make a promise to yourself to focus on an element of your business and resolve to improve it? Customer Service is continually an area that requires rebooting. Reminding your management, sales staff and service advisors to always anti-cipate the needs of the customer, listen actively, and to go that extra mile can truly make all the difference. While you have meas-urable control of your own staff through your internal hiring process and daily interactions, you have every reason to feel anxious about inviting a sales event staff into your dealership and giving them direct contact with your customers. Any vendor acting on your behalf should uphold your established customer service and retention principles. If you demand it of your staff, you should demand it of others bearing your name--even if it s just for the weekend.

Sales Events are a subject of contention among automotive professionals. If done unpro-fessionally, a sales event can really go bad, affecting not only your profitability but also your reputation in both the community and the marketplace. Your customers are your lifeblood. Quality customer service and retention is the key to retaining a constantly growing customer base that continues to look to you when they are in need of a vehicle or service. The risk of inviting a run of the mill commission-based sales event company to your dealership is that they don t have the high stakes that you do. While the sales event staff can wash their hands of a bad interaction and move on to the next, you just lost a potential customer for life and you didn t even know it.
