The new and improved CarSmartSTL.com. |
Here's what's new in the month of June at ASL...
New on the web! Our latest Online Presence website is Dan Decaro's CarSMART Automotive at CarSmartSTL.com! We completely retrofitted Dan's original site with a sleek new interface, and made it an interactive marketing piece for his staff and customers. If you've been on the fence about getting started with a new website or redesigning your existing site, take a look at Dan's new site and see what we can do for you! Also remember, if you are a Step 2 Client, you receive a $250 discount for website design and if you are in Step 3, it's FREE! Take advantage of this great service! Call Derek today!
Also new is our enhanced Composite Program! New Composite Budget with Calculators. You can now complete a rolling budget based on the composite chart of accounts. Budget out for the next 12 months. Calculators to help review your G&A and see what individual tickets mad you money or lost you money!
On May 15th, we began our VirtualShopCritique Program! Periodically our CEO Club team of successful shop owners will put a new shop under the microscope. Everything from your composite numbers to your website will be evaluated. You will also get to participate in the Growth Vision phone sessions with the CEO Club, where they will offer their advice and strategy for your shop's growth. If you're interested in entering your shop, call or email us today. Depending on what Step you are enrolled in, fees may apply. |

Mike Veenstra and Rolland Trowbridge accept BBB's 2007 WMI Business of Integrity award |
Congratulations to our award winning clients! At the ASA Vision '07 conference in Kansas City, Bob Buchheit was bestowed a prestigious honor. His shop, All-Star Automotive, located in Columbia, MO, was voted ASA Missouri's Facility of the Year! Way to go, Bob and staff. Also, the Better Business Bureau of Western Michigan bestowed upon Veenstra's Garage the Business of Integrity Award. This comes as no surprise to us, as Mike Veenstra and crew have always ran their business with total integrity in mind!
There are some new Online Presences on the World Wide Web this month. Dave Barklow's Precision Auto Repair website is a new showpiece for Derek, as he has included some new features that really put the shop's best face forward. Dave's logo was also designed by Derek, so if you're in the market, you need not look further than ASL! You may view Precision's site at www.precisionautorepair.info. Also, we have relaunched TAT.com! We are confident this new format will prove easier for all of you to navigate and find the information and features that you need to help you with your business success. Keep checking back to view new Online Presence websites- there are several in the works that should be live online by this time next month! |

| The 20+Group Meeting in Nashville, TN was a great success! We had a successful review of our Five Bullet Rotational Calendar and some great exposure and participation in our products and services. This was a tremendous opportunity for owners to put their heads together, particularly during Dollar Time. Great ideas were presented by all for improving our bottom lines! If you couldn't make it, make plans now to attend the next 20+Group event, scheduled for June 20 – 23, 2007 in Newnan, GA! |
