Is this a stand alone seminar or a long term program?

First let me tell you that management training is the key to the success of your business.

I have attended many one day business seminars and multi-day seminars. I have never personally enrolled in a long term commitment program. I know shop owners who have been enrolled with Management Success Program and other similar long term programs. I have heard some negative stories and many positive stories. It’s like going to school; you will get out of it what you put into it and what you commit to. These programs can be life-changing. It will take a lot of work on your part to make it work. Is it worth it? Only you can answer that.

I personally like one day seminars and clinics or multi-day seminars. I also take college courses on business, finance, marketing, advertising, customer service, etc. I am an AMI Graduate (Automotive Management Institute) and part of Bob Cooper’s Elite program. I am also involved with business councils which can be very beneficial. And, I read constantly about business.

Hope this helps????

I attended one of their seminars about 10 years ago. It was exciting to listen to and will get your managerial juices flowing. I signed on for their 6 month training program. I was dissapointed with them. After the 6 months, they have many more services for those who want to continue with them, I did not. They are heavily into the church of scientology. I'm not knocking the church of scientology, I just didn't see what that had to do with automotive management. I am currently a client of the automotive training institute and while it has only been a few short months, I am much more satisfied.

I have heard this from others. Many shop owners find it very difficult to commit to a long term program. You need to have the right mind-set to continue. I do believe in continued training, but I enjoy having control over what seminars and clinics I attend. Plus I like variety.

Going thru AMI classes, including home study classes, is something that I would encourage every shop owner to participate in.

Thanks for the input.I really was looking for some type of a business coach.This i think will do a great deal for my company.I will keep everyone up to date on the program.
