What can you do with a 2.5 hour car service appointment


You could go sit in the dealer’s comfortable lounge, drink coffee, and watch cable shows all morning. Or you could find a table in the showroom, connect to their Wi-Fi network, and:

  2. Brainstorm on your current business and decide what to change.

  3. Let your brainstorm produce a new video to send to your prospective clients.

  4. Video interview some of the dealer personnel who have great attitudes about how they got them.

  5. Come up with a game plan to turn your “back of the envelope” funny discussion on what makes you different into a rocking, whiteboard video.

“Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out.” John Wooden
