New AMI ‘Live’ Online Training Course Shows How to Fix a Struggling Business

The course will demonstrate proven methods to increase earnings, improve finances, maximize production from advisors and technicians, and establish and achieve benchmarking goals.

The Automotive Management Institute (AMI) and R. L. O’Connor & Associates, Inc. have teamed up to offer a new live online training course that shows how to turn a struggling automotive service business into a business that meets or exceeds earnings and profit goals. “Business Struggling? Fix it Now … Guaranteed!” is designed specifically for shop owners and managers and will be offered Oct. 7-8, Nov. 11-12 and Dec. 2-3, 2009, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. CDT.

AMI instructor Robert “Bob” O’Connor, R. L. O’Connor & Associates, Inc will lead the course. It will demonstrate proven methods to increase earnings, improve finances, maximize production from advisors and technicians, and establish and achieve benchmarking goals. The course will allow live interaction with the instructor and other participants, and will consist of two sessions of two hours each for a total of four hours of business improvement training. Participants working toward the institute’s Accredited Automotive Manager (AAM) designation will earn eight credits for this course.

“We know that many shop owners struggle to earn little more than wages, especially in this current economy,” said AMI Executive Director Toni Slaton, AAM. “This course will help them build a roadmap in order to earn a salary and profits suitable for their investment of time and money.”

The course is being offered at a special price of $99 with a limit of 25 participants. Tuition includes instruction, workbooks, handout materials, one Internet and one teleconference connection.
