Consider implementing apprenticeship programs to nurture and develop technical skills internally. According to industry data, apprenticeship programs have shown a 30% increase in technician retention rates due to enhanced loyalty and satisfaction.

Implementing a structured training program covers various aspects such as product knowledge, sales techniques, and customer service skills. Documented evidence shows that well-trained advisors can increase parts sales by up to 20%.

Providing service advisors with evolving digital tools and analytics from providers like Auto Pro Solutions ensures they have access to real-time data, thereby empowering them to offer tailored solutions that meet the unique needs of each customer.
