Follow on Google News | ![]() Low Overhead Profit Center for New and Used Car DealershipsAdding a rental division is a smart choice for auto dealers interested in increasing profits using what they already have in place.
“We talk with folk already in auto sales who have an interest in auto rental,” Jim Schalberg said, “we keep hearing requests for the nuts and bolts of adding on to an existing new or used car dealership. These folk do not need the basic “how to start a business” knowledge. They want to learn how to leverage their current experience and business into more profits.” “New and used car dealers will gain a firm understanding of the rental business,” added David Wells, a trainer with Auto Rental Solutions. “We take dealers from the ‘what ifs’ of adding a rental division, all the way through how they can quickly maximize profits of their current businesses.” Two very important topics included in the Dealer Add-on Program are Loss Prevention, which teaches how to make a good rental that ensures the car comes back when promised; and Fleet Insurance, where the nuances of rental fleet insurance are detailed, Schalberg said. Other topics covered are: setting rates, and how depreciation works in the rental business versus the auto sales business. The Dealer Add-on Program is delivered as a one day intensive workshop at the Auto Rental Solutions training center in Rock Hill, SC (just 30 minutes south of Charlotte, NC) or as a self-study. “We understand new and used car dealers might not be able to get away from their business for our one day workshop,” Wells said. “ The self-study package provides the training manual and 30 days of one-on-one consulting.” New and used car dealers who are interested in the Dealer Add-on Program can contact David Wells or Jim Schalberg at Auto Rental Solutions to learn more. 800-396-9128.
