To Jim Ziegler:
Recently we had the privilege of having Jim Ziegler of Ziegler SuperSystems come out to our dealership for some onsite training.
Jim came to us near the end of the month, and; while we were busy, we were also looking for some fresh ideas. There was a new smell in the air. Jim brought a level of enthusiasm, excitement, and a "Wow Approach" that really makes sense for our dealership. He got everyone thinking and our momentum intensified.
We'd heard many things about Jim, but, no one anticipated this. initially our goal was to increase margins by $600 per unit retailed. The results have been phenomenally successful, and it shows in the numbers- at an increase of $900 per unit we are very excited about the results.
As I write this, we are finishing the 2nd biggest month in the history of our 11 year-old company.
Thanks Jim, we really feel like we've walked away from this moment in our timeline with a load of new, modern, and fresh ideas. We can't wait to see what the response from our video testimonials will be.
Thank you Jim and we look forward to our next meeting.
Chad Baker, General Manager

Its all good... Never a need to lie ...or cheat...or sneak or deceive to make a profit. Everything is about relationship and process. If it is technique it centers around persuasion and finesse and presentation skills.
There are too many people in our industry today promoting "Low Profit" as if it is a virtue. In truth, they are self-serving vendors getting dealers to pay them to help lower profits in quest of that elusive higher volume to make up for it.
Well, I'm here to say you can have high profit per unit, high volume, and great CSI without ever giving up one to have the other...
We've lost the base philosophy that Full Price is a fair price... Alpha Dawg

Is that NOT the strongest testimonial you've ever seen from a high volume quality Dealership?

That's a brand new 1968 Super Bee in 1967 one of the first ones... Paxton SuperCharger 383, engine built by Stanley Mizell, Mopar World Record Holder at the time with Performance Engineering and his Hemi Cuda. Got in a lot of trouble with that car.
