Burson Auto Parts’ Post

With leaders like Eddie Burns in our business, the future looks bright. While external recognition is always welcome, true leadership begins with actions. Samsara provides a measurable score for those actions, aligning with our belief that what gets measured gets managed. In the remote and dynamic nature of our field operations, trust is crucial—trust in our people to uphold the company’s vision and values. However, Samsara, along with other key performance indicators, serves as a valuable tool to drive continuous improvement. Thanks Eddie for leading the way!!

Why the awards keep coming for one Welsh retailer: A European title and three national honours put Gravells Kia Bridgend in a league of its own. In our latest article showcasing auto retail success, we talk to Cassian Wright – then general manager at Gravells Kia Bridgend, but since promoted to the group’s sales director. Cassian was in charge of the retailer’s most successful period and for him – and the rest of the team, the success was the result of a lot of hard work over a number of years. Cassian’s top tip for success is to “Give your staff the freedom and empowerment to make decisions quickly."

Another year, another presentation to a progressive group of Canadian dealers. Last year I was invited by Paul McGeachie to present at the Motorcycle Powersport BC's first annual dealer summit. Great group of dealers, we had a good time, and I'm not sure why but they invited me back. Canada is very different than the U.S. on the powersports front. For the most part dealers have no franchise protections, margins on vehicles are typically lower, auto groups own quite a few roof tops, and many areas are packed with dealers selling the exact same brands. It's often a fight to see who can give away a machine for the lowest price, and that's caused many dealers to learn how to maximize profits in other areas of the business. While many U.S. dealer associations are focused mostly on state and vendor issues, the MPBC has a wide mandate on subjects like rider safety, career development, area access, and sustainability. This year's summit is on October 6th and 7th, in Harrison Hot Springs, BC. If you aren't signed up, then take a few minutes to do so. Here is the link, click on through.... https://lnkd.in/eNYamFnt While there have been requests for me to speak at more of these events, my current schedule is pretty tight. And, as I found out last year, some of these organizations are way more concerned with selling vendor sponsorships than they are about advocating for their dealer members. I'm always going to be a primary advocate for the dealer, and I won't stand for anyone disseminating misleading information. If you are a member of a state dealer association, be sure to confirm that they have your best interests at heart. If you don't like an individual who speaks the truth, I'm probably not your guy. #Powersports #MPBC #DealerAssociation #Motorcycle #Sleds #Advocacy

Have you ever been unhappy looking at your colleague smiling? I have! I was in the process of closing a sale with a couple who had come into our showroom looking for a 520d MSport. My colleague came over with a massive smile on his face and said "I've just sold that!" I don't think I've ever seen a man so happy. You see, this was the second 520d MSport that I was about to close with the same couple only to have it sold. Here's how it unfolded; "I have one 520d MSport left. It's in our other branch. Let me show you on the website here." I pulled up the car. "We said we don't like white but, we'll take it!' What just happened here? I learned some very important lessons that day. 1. I don't always like to see my colleagues happy. 2. The scarcity principle is an extremely powerful motivator in sales. The couple did not want to lose out on their third 520d MSport and bought the car. Luckily when I brought the car up, they loved it. #sales #scarcityprinciple #salescoach
