What Type of Training Works for You? [RR 706]

[carmcapriotto]

 

Key Talking Points

• Hybrid training- virtual training brought in a new group of people with free videos and easy access to top instructors. The median income for technicians is $45,000. It starts with the business owner raising rates and paying for training. 
• Participate together- get the team together for online webinars 
• Cons of virtual- you can’t read the audience virtually, dead air.
• Live classes- make it interactive and fun. If you don’t make it fun you’ll lose them especially if it’s their first time going to training. Create a short ‘post test’ for after the training. 
• Implementing training immediately or it will be lost- recorded videos can be rewatched. 
• Consider signed agreement/reward system for training to hold employees accountable.
• Basics are the most important or you won’t be able to grasp the high-end training
• Sponsors- brand exposure, the content is led by the trainer
• Do the salespeople need to be the ones to elevate shop owners? 
• Classes vs seminars- in classes you are learning in order to implement
