“It was great!!! More smaller interactive games can be added. Seminar was too long and should be broken into 2 days. Both groups go 8-12 or 1-5 for 2 days rather than all in 1. Too much time on objections. Great speaker, best I’ve had so far in the last 2 ´ years.”
Trista Sullivan, Salesperson – Courtesy Ford

Rod Gergen, Sales Associate (two time graduate) – Gresham Toyota
“Having too many green peas talking about how to do things! I didn’t come here to listen to pre-mature “Dealer Plates” talking. Michael knows what he’s tlaking about. It seems to me the management at most stores are virtually worthless in the aspect of training their people. Michael you’re great!”
