What we discuss in this episode:

Ever feel like your service department is running in circles—putting out fires instead of making real progress?  What if I told you there’s a way to break free from the chaos and actually predict better results?

John’s got a 90-day strategy that will change the way you think about accountability, execution, and progress in your service department. This is not another "good ideas" session—this is a tactical, step-by-step approach to getting measurable results.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  The 3 pillars of execution: Lead measures, accountability rhythms, and visible progress
  •  Why potential doesn’t deliver results—execution does (and how to make it happen)
  •  The daily stand-up huddle that keeps service teams focused and engaged
  •  The biggest mistakes dealers make that kill profitability and customer loyalty
  •  The law of reciprocity—how simple actions drive bigger ticket sales in service
  •  Why a scoreboard isn’t optional (and how to build one that actually works)

John lays out exactly how to align your team, track real progress, and build momentum—so that by the time April rolls around, you’re not scrambling… you’re scaling.

If you’re serious about growing your fixed ops department, this episode is your blueprint.
