Episode 15 Winning dealerships with Bob Clements and Sara Hey (US)

This episode we go 'across the pond' to catch up with America's leading dealership coaches, Bob Clements and Sara to discuss their new book You're the Problem - and the Solution which provides dealers with advice and tips on how to reclaim their sanity, their life and their dealership.

We also talk about the impact of COVID19 on US dealer business this year , the relationship between manufacturer and dealer, and whether manufacturers really understand the psychology of being a dealer, and how dealer produced product videos can be more effective than those made by manufacturers.

Bob also tells how a US ag dealer went from being £1 million down on his sales projection in April this year - to being £1m up one month later!
