The first step to higher profits is understanding how the numbers work!


 

Know Your Numbers is the collision industry’s best way to get shop owners, managers and department leaders all working together towards a common set of basic financial goals.

Let's be honest. The financial side of running a business or department can feel overwhelming. Most of us would rather be working on a car!

This workshop takes the key metrics and breaks them down so anyone can understand, apply, and transform their collision repair business into a highly profitable enterprise!


 

High performers don’t need to know every number in their business.

Drive your business forward by knowing and monitoring a small handful of key metrics that matter most!

When you leave this course, you’ll know...

  1. what these metrics are,
  2. where to find them, and
  3. how to take daily proactive action towards achieving higher profits.

 
This 1-day live training covers...
  • Budgeting and forecasting
  • Understanding a financial statement
  • The metrics that matter most and where to find them
  • Job costing
  • Financial strategies for achieving a 20 percent net profit
  • Understanding sales and work mix’s effect on profitability

  • Management system and QuickBooks best practices
  • And more!

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR PROFITABILITY!
