I am curious how many dealerships currently use an effective mentor program? Assuming two dealers train the same amount, and one has a mentor program, would the dealer with the mentor program retain more hires?

People who want a career, want to succeed. What defeats most new people is frustration. They want to do the job, they have tools, but no one shows them how to utilize them. As a recruitier we interview and train but it's up to dealers to retain. To retain is to train, train, and train somemore.

33 Members already!!!! Wow!!! Greast job, Craig!
The two main ingredients in the recipe for a successful auto business are: 1) People and 2) Percentages. If we concentrate on attracting the top folks and maintain training and keep everything in line as far as departmental gross profit and expenses, how can we lose?
Yes, this is a plug for my group called "Nothing but Net" here on dealer elite where we will discuss ways to enhance the bottom line. If you are here, you need to be there as well! Please join my group and get some great discussions going that will benefit all!!!!!

There are plenty of good people to hire. The problem is keeping them. There are a few things that stick out when you ask your question. One you must have a good pay plan to keep any person. Second you have to have daily training to keep them moving forward. Third you need a manager to understand the difference between a requirement and a request. In other words hold people accountable by checking systems to be sure they are being done. I truely believe this is what it takes.

Most dealerships today can't find salesman. They hire anything that walks thru the door. If they need 3 guys they may need to hire 30 to find 3 that stick.
Why is it that dealers can't get good salesman?

When Interviewing I use a series of high quality questions EXmple- What kinds of sacrifices have you made to be successful? What is the toughest goal you ever set for yourself? Tell me about the most competitive situation you have ever beenin at work , How unusual was it? Think about the last time you lost a deal What didyou do to recover? What do you feel driven to prove?
