Mitchell 1
will hold this year’s first Shop Management System Training Workshop April
19-21, in Atlantic City, NJ, at the Resorts Casino Hotel, located at 1133
Boardwalk. The training workshop is designed for those who have previously
established competence using their shop management software and now want to
learn more advanced capabilities, better methods and shortcuts. This two day
session will guide users through all levels of functionality in the Mitchell 1
Manager and ManagerPlus system. Instructors will explore program setup values,
inventory, reporting, best practices and advanced transactions as well as
integration with aftermarket cataloging. Attendees will also learn about the
new Mitchell 1 SocialCRM customer retention and new customer acquisition
service during a relaxed evening reception.
The
workshop will be led by John Dwulet, senior product manager for Mitchell 1’s
management software solutions, and Tim McDonnell, national training manager,
who have over 30 years of combined Manager and ManagerPlus training experience.
Mitchell 1 support personnel will also be on hand. Attendees can expect lively discussions on
how to use the management system to energize their business, increase profits
and boost productivity.
“This
advanced training workshop turns existing shop management system customers into
power-users who get the most out of their software and business,” said Dwulet.
“The sessions will uncover strategies allowing attendees to compete
successfully against dealerships; maximizing their maintenance and repair
opportunities and further the relationship with the customer. Each time we
conduct a workshop, we repeatedly hear similar comments, such as ‘the workshop
opened my eyes to new ways of doing things that have really helped me in my business.’ No matter how long you have had the
software, you learn there are better and more efficient methods to operate the
day-to-day business.”
PLEASE
NOTE: The workshop will explore both the 5.9 and 6.4 versions of Mitchell 1’s
popular shop management solutions. Users of both versions will benefit from
this training experience, regardless of the version being used.
At the end
of each workshop, AMI Course Completion forms will be handed out to those
attendees who wish to pursue AMI credits. Students completing this course will
be rewarded 30 credits toward the Accredited Automotive Manager (AAM)
designation.
