Automotive Dealerships Benefit from Dealer Synergy –FranklinCovey Strategic Partnership
Philadelphia, PA- January 5, 2009 – Dealer Synergy and FranklinCovey are
pleased to announce a strategic partnership to serve the unique
needs of automotive dealerships. Sean V. Bradley, CEO and
Founder of Dealer Synergy, nationally recognized sales trainer
for the automotive industry and Karen Uriarte, Vice President of
Dealer Synergy have completed the rigorous process to become
certified FranklinCovey trainers.
As the only official partner in the automotive training area of
the FranklinCovey Management & Organization Solutions Group,
Dealer Synergy is now poised to bring all the dynamic principles
of “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” to automotive
retail leaders, managers and sales professionals in this highly
charged competitive landscape. Dealerships that lack strong
organizational and motivational skills will be at a distinct
disadvantage in the market. Sean V. Bradley said, “We all know
the auto industry is clearly going through a rough year ahead,
and that dealerships looking to maintain momentum need to focus
now more than ever on the daily tasks at hand. With the
FranklinCovey program we share with dealers a totally new and
powerful way to be successful and offer team members a way to
build positive habits that will serve them well in this
environment. ”
The book, “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", written by
Dr. Stephen R. Covey has sold more than 15 million copies
worldwide and is regarded as one of the most powerful business
book ever written. In 2009, Dealer Synergy will be focusing on
sharing the most powerful training, consulting and leadership
strategies from this book with auto dealers to not only help
them survive a very tough year, but to thrive under these
current market conditions.
Auto retailers clearly need to work on building leadership traits and time
management principles that have helped thousands of businesses
succeed and need training to continually develop strong teams
within dealerships. Laying a foundation of taking proactive
steps will better prepare auto dealers to maintain profits,
retain valued employees and then be better prepared for the
financial turnaround that will be coming later in the year.
Sean V. Bradley and Dealer Synergy have been recognized for
their efforts in the industry and in 2008 they received the
AutoDealer Monthly Platinum Award for the Best Automotive
Internet Sales Training Company. Adding The 7 Habits of Highly
Effective People Program to their existing Internet Sales and
BDC training curriculum makes their programs even more valuable
for dealers. Dealers attending the 2009 NADA Convention in New
Orleans can see Sean V. Bradley in action, as he will be a
speaker at the New Orleans event being held on January 24 – 27,
2009. About Dealer Synergy
