Staffing Your Dealership Last Minute: What Happens When You Lose an Employee Last Minute?

If you own or manage a car dealership, having excessive turnover in your staff is the last thing you want to start a new year. While you've maybe avoided this most of the time, what happens if a valuable employee suddenly leaves?

This employee vacancy might occur out of the blue due to family circumstances, a health event, or just wanting to move on. The person who left could also be a vital part of your dealership, like a business manager.

How are you going to go about replacing them quickly? Trying to find a new candidate on your own can take far too much work. Going through a general recruiting firm wouldn't help either if they don't work regularly with dealerships.

Only an automotive consultant can help you find solutions fast.

Finding an Agency That Helps With Free Staffing

It's rare to find an automotive consultant agency that goes beyond helping you reach sales goals or offering F&I products. What if you could find one offering free dealership staffing and fill-in services?

Vanguard Dealer Services is the only one available in the United States that can do this for you. However, you probably have a lot of questions about how it works.

Take a look at the procedures involved and how we'll work with you long-term to prevent excessive turnover. You'll discover many new ways to retain your talent, bring more loyalty, and give you more control over the entire process.

Filling In at the Last Minute

Our free staffing and fill-in service is absolutely invaluable, giving you a chance to find someone fast so you aren't left doing an interminable search.

We have a unique understanding of what dealerships need and can dig into a talent pool providing the right candidate. Going through any other source just gives you leads who aren't thoroughly screened, creating a major mismatch.

As you already know, running a dealership means keeping consistency going to maintain all sales goals. Having an employee who doesn't quite know what they're doing leads to the dominoes falling, you firing them, and ending up back where you started.

The key is to train your employees in advance so you won't encounter any unexpected departures.

Training Designed for Your Unique Business Structure

One aspect about our services is we understand no dealership is alike. Our agents work closely with your dealership to understand what you truly need and provide training based on the approach of each employee.

During training, all professional trainers monitor and manage your department performance to make sure they acquire the proper skills.

Overall, we help dealers promote from within and offer various benefits that lead to larger retention rates.

Benefits for Your Employees

While we can provide various loyalty programs, incentive plans are another part of our focus. This starts with a complete analysis of how well each department performs. Part of it includes your F&I department and working out a system that helps them sell more while bringing rewards for sales achievement.

We've developed a proven system so all your employees feel happy and motivated to go to work every day. At the same time, we still give you control over everything so it won't feel like an agency usurped your business.

We'll also work in your finance department and coach each finance manager personally. By using this system, they'll learn better skills than they would taking a group class. Trainers also go at the learning speeds of your employees so they fully understand each skill.

Being Your Long-Term Partner

Automotive consultants like us aren't just here to work with you for a few weeks and then move on. Our plans have designs to work long-term so you achieve every goal you've set over the next couple of years.

Full training and improvement of your employees always brings higher retention rates so you won't face those sudden talent losses at the drop of a hat. Even if you still have one sudden departure, our staffing service always has you covered for years to come.
