THE STANDARD FOR DEALERSHIP TRAINING
Service Advisor Training for Auto Dealerships
Fixed operations, fixed right. We train service advisors, technicians, managers and fixed-ops leaders to change the one thing that moves every number on the board — behavior. Because it isn’t what you say. It’s what the customer hears, and how you make them feel.
Service Advisor & Fixed Operations Training
One Advisor Trained Right Is Worth A Million Dollars A Year
Untrained, that same advisor is leaving it on the table. Every day. On every repair order. Shaw Dealer Training Group did the math, and so should you: count your advisors, multiply by a million, and that’s the number your service drive is giving away this year. It isn’t a process problem. Your store has a process. It’s a behavior problem, and behavior is the only thing that moves the numbers. Hours per RO. Effective labor rate. Customer-pay gross. Retention. Net.
Shaw Dealer Training Group turns fixed operations into a profit center — one advisor, one technician, one repair order at a time. We hire people from outside the industry and make them experts. We take veteran teams and give them a system. And we do it in your store, on your drive, under your brand.
It isn’t what the customer says, it’s how you make them feel
That’s the Shaw approach. Customers don’t buy a word track. They buy the advisor. They buy when the need is revealed, when the inspection says pass or fail instead of maybe, and when the maintenance the manufacturer requires is presented at the desk instead of discovered in the waiting room. Train the behavior, and the numbers follow.
The Standard for Dealership Training
Since 2012, the Shaw approach has been proven in over 1,000 rooftops across North America. Dealers don’t renew training that doesn’t show up on the statement. They renew ours.

Dave and Steven are about to tell you how it really is – and exactly how to fix it.
