Service Advisor Training

At M5, we believe that “Customer Experience Management” is the linchpin of your business’s growth. If your advisors focus solely on selling without considering the customer experience, your long-term success may be at risk. We understand that a sensitive approach to meeting your customers’ needs and desires is critical to sustaining success. Our “Customer Experience Management” framework encompasses six vital components. From meticulously managing customer expectations during the Sales to Service “Hand Off” to refining Customer Verbal and Non-Verbal Communication, we ensure that every interaction enhances your customer’s journey. Our Point-of-Sales Selling strategies don’t just prioritize sales; they’re designed to enrich the customer experience with empathy, convenience, and integrity. We go even further by offering guidance on Post Diagnostic Selling and implementing a dynamic Active Delivery. This ensures that every step of your customer’s experience with your dealership is nothing short of exceptional.

Trust us to enhance your customer relationships and propel your business to new heights!
