What we do

Consulting, training and technology — built for the pace of the modern dealership.

From the drive lane to the sales floor to the BDC, we bring hands-on tactics, live coaching and a technology platform that actually gets used.

Dealer Education & Consulting

Tailored engagements that revolutionize dealership operations — drive success, enhance guest experience, shift leadership and boost profitability.

BDC — Sales & Service

Business Driving Catalyst for both sides of the house. Proven tactics and strategy to reengage inactive guests and turn calls into appointments.

Regional Training

Region-wide programs that align managers and associates on the same playbook — consistent language, consistent behaviors, consistent results.

Retail Sales Training

Sales floor training that is dynamic, relatable and fun — the kind of session your team actually looks forward to, and remembers on Monday.

Retail Service Training

Fixed-ops coaching focused on retention — the technicians, advisors and drive-lane behaviors that keep customers coming back.

Consulting

Operational reviews, process design and executive coaching. Straight talk, immediate wins, durable change.

Business Driving Catalyst

“Business Driving Catalyst” — it’s not just a slogan, it’s what we do.

Established in 2017, our BDC practice turns inbound and outbound calls into repair orders and deals. We’re not the free-wiper-blade guys or the “fuzzy opcode” players — we build guest retention through strong marketing, fair pricing, and memorable service.

BDC Service

Service that shows up.

60% of inbound calls are business opportunities — most BDCs book only 35%. We fix that with education, role-plays and scenarios that stick.

  • Revusup OEM Retention integration
  • Inbound — knowledge-focused & guest-centric
  • Appointments with “2 and 2” holding power
  • Simple, effective list generation
  • Manager engagement
  • Clear price & time expectation-setting
  • Appointment maximization vs capacity planning
  • Fast, accurate telematics response
  • Outbound power plays
BDC Sales

Sales that closes.

The #1 killer of any BDC is lack of guidance. We work inside your CRM with your existing staff to maximize every guest interaction — simplifying metrics, defining standards, personalizing every touch.

  • Digital retailing
  • Better manager engagement
  • Actions that get quicker “to the deal”
  • Higher conversion rates
  • Better customer outreach
  • Improved relationship-building
  • Higher employee retention
