Matt Surdyke - Surdyke MotorsportsAs far as the results, thank you. The biggest thing I’ve done is make sure the entire staff knows how important they are to me. I’ve told them that, to date, I haven’t seen an idea or concept that Sam’s talked about that I don’t believe is the correct way of thinking. And, unless they convince me otherwise, I want to move in that direction. Also, I’ve "encouraged" each of my department managers to have a video that they want to show and talk about at our monthly staff meetings. So, at a minimum, everybody sees at least 4 videos per month.
Wheelhouse College - Sam's Garage
NFL players are the best of the best in the world, and they practice six days per week to play one. I’m amazed at how little our industry practices – we don’t train our people. Anybody can reactively CLERK a transaction. Sam's Garage is designed to help you and your staff create experiences that cause sales to happen – start SELLING!

Sam’s Powersports Garage has moved to the Wheelhouse College platform and is changing its name to Sam’s Garage! They have recently rebranded the online training and are proud to offer subscribers an improved training experience through Wheelhouse College.
Sam’s Garage is not a direct product offered by Garage Composites yet is a related and complementary product offered by Wheelhouse College - our closest industry partner. Wheelhouse College has made every attempt to make the online training easy for your staff and your managers and offers the Sam's Garage product via their custom-built learning management system. They have a user hierarchy specific to our industry and training modules broken down by industry departments. In Sam's Garage you'll find a mix of videos and best practices documents. The online training is a multi-tiered approach to understanding, where students hear it, see it, and test on it to maintain maximum accountability. Quizzes, Final Exams, and Certificates of Completion add value to the process. The videos are designed to be fun and engaging, not corporate and slick, with real-world examples and industry language. The information is derived from over 30 years of best practices. It is also infused with Sam's in-depth research and experiences in human behavioral psychology. Be prepared to learn and laugh!
Sam’s Garage online training is a great supplement to the management training and 20-clubs offered through Garage Composites as it is designed to address the needs of management AND staff, is available for a monthly fee, and is of course taken at the leisure of the student whether that be in-dealership or at home in pajamas.
