Culture

[kuhl-cher]

noun

"The philosophy, values, and behaviors that together communicate the unique style and policies of a company."

If you don't create the culture in your business, somebody else will... And you may not like it.

For now, let's continue to focus on leadership.


To start creating your culture, ask yourself:

  1. Why Are We In Business?
  2. Who Do We Help?
  3. What Do We Believe In?
  4. What's Our Vision For A Better Business?

Writing down the answers to these questions is the first step to cultivating the culture of your dealership.

Then you can start creating the culture you really want. Talk about it with your team. Embrace it.

The problem with culture is that it erodes


It's not a "set it and forget it" kind of thing. Just deciding on your culture isn't enough. You can't put a sign up on the wall and expect the culture to change. Just like you can't plant a garden and walk away from it. You have to constantly revisit your culture, and continually promote it at your business.

We believe you should cultivate a solving culture versus a selling culture. That's what works for our dealers, and doing this can breathe new life into your dealership, while infusing your sales staff with new energy.
