Cover story Dave Baiocchi
Business in a Post COVID-19 world As I write this article in early May, I am hoping that by the time it hits your inbox, COVID-19 will be solidly in the rear-view mirror, and you will be experiencing some sense of normalcy and return to business as usual. All of that remains to be seen. Businesses are already fretting over how to hit the restart button, and what kind of regulatory hurdles they will encounter to demonstrate safe operation and due diligence. Company manuals will likely have to now include social distancing guidelines and explain measures to ensure the safety of both employees and customers alike. Our industry is one that has limited “over the counter” operations, as most dealership activity takes place over the phone, or while visiting the customer’s place of business. This actually COMPLICATES the issues at hand. How can you prepare for the myriad of new rules and distancing requirements that will undoubtedly be an obstacle to gaining entry to new and old customers alike? Understanding PPE requirements From gloves to face coverings to full disposable coveralls, there will undoubtedly be requirements where your field service technicians will need to “suit up” in PPE equipment that will be confining and uncomfortable. It will be best to prepare them now by stocking the van with appropriate PPE, and metering these requirements into your daily work routine so that these items can be normalized over time. The earlier you start, the better it will be for your staff and your customers. Not every customer site will have the same requirements. For this reason, it’s important to contact customers immediately after they restart operations to ascertain what is and is not required. Having this compliance data keyed into a file window that is OHIO RACK customer visible during the dispatch or scheduling processes is vital We BUY & SELL PM to show up “ready”. The work Portable Stack Racks orders issued to the technician Flexible Packaging should also visibly display this NEW & USED data so that they are aware of 800-344-4164 what the requirements are.

Sanitary services Many of you have already anticipated the needs, and have expanded your service offerings to include disinfecting equipment for customers. I expect that this will be an ongoing need in a post-COVID-19 world. It goes without saying that you will need to ensure that equipment decontamination is an integral part of all current service and repair processes. The Customer, however, may require you to offer “stand-alone” decontamination on a weekly, daily, or pre-shift basis. The sanitizing services I have seen in the marketplace already include the following: Disinfectant applied (with a 10-minute rest) to all high touch areas (as per CDC guidelines): • Overhead guard and grips or door handles • Steering wheel, hydraulic and steering column control levers • Dashboard, including key switch and emergency brake lever • Dipstick pulls, covers and caps • Hood, latches, seat, arm-rests, hip restraints • LP tank brackets and couplers and hoses • Battery connectors, vent caps, and cables (for ele,ctric units). Health certifications Although it is not yet a requirement in the USA, any spike in virus infections or (God forbid) the rise of another virus, may eventually require that your field personnel have some sort of health certification stating that they have tested positive for antibodies, or that they have been vaccinated against a particular virus. This is being seriously considered in countries like Chile, Turkey, and the UK, especially in connection to the travel and hospitality industry. Although these measures are not required here (at this time), I would expect that eventual countermeasures may include this provision especially in companies that are a part of the food processing and distribution supply chain. Although certification may possibly include some form of a certificate from a health testing organization, broader health safety measures don’t necessarily have to start there. This process could initially roll out with a company health and wellness statement that

Cover Story continued assures customers of the preventative measures taken for all field personnel. This could include a list of requirements enforced by the dealer prior to entering a customer facility. • PPE, consistent with the customer’s needs • Pre-shift or multiple hour body temperature logs • Handwashing requirements • Document handling (touchless delivery) • Equipment decontamination (post-repair). It would be smart to be ready to investigate and implement ways to be compliant with any certification requirement should it arise. If the virus fades, it may not be necessary. That said, COVID-19 will not be the last virus we will ever see. Having a contingency plan in place to offer this level of assurance to your customers will give you a decided advantage over your competitors. Field service readiness Yes, I am going to beat this drum again! Are your technicians READY to perform multiple service functions on a single visit, with the resources they currently have on the service van? Unless you equip your technicians will the tools to quote, close,
and complete routine repairs ONSITE, return visits to the customer location will continue to hamper your effectiveness. Most dealers do not supply their technicians with these tools to use independently. Life has changed. It’s hard enough to collect the proper PPE and jump through all of the hoops to get into the customer’s facility the first time. Coming back two or three times because the service department had to issue a quote for the repair, or the technician had to fetch parts he didn’t have in the van will only irritate your customer AND your technician. Your customer hates paying for return travel time anyway. Imagine when you add the time for multiple entry requirements. The bottom line is that you must be READY. Being ready requires an investment in a meticulous analysis of the equipment population assigned to every field technician. It requires stocking parts on the van that are CONSISTENT with this analysis. It requires drafting pre-engineered menus of common repair items that are applicable to each make and model of equipment being serviced. This menu must detail the parts needed to complete the repair (including fluids, grease, and hardware). It must also include reasoned labor allowances, disposal costs, fees, and taxes. RDS can supply this system for your service department if you don’t have the time or know-how to assemble this yourself. Either way, it’s an investment worth making. Stay safe, stay ready, and let’s salvage what’s left of 2020! Dave Baiocchi is the president of Resonant Dealer Services LLC (RDS). He has spent 37 years in the equipment business as a sales manager, aftermarket director, and dealer principal.

Bottom Line Garry Bartecki
Status Report: Your Pandemic financial position By now all dealers should understand their PANDEMIC financial position in terms of where they started (Mid-March), where they stand today and where they need to be to get fully comfortable they will come out of this situation still standing. A TOUGH ASSIGNMENT CONSIDERING NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TO EXPECT AND WHEN TO EXPECT IT. Here is what I recommend: Prepare budgets for three Sales Levels starting with the original budget for 2020, a second with a 25% drop in sales and a third with a 50% drop in sales, with the impact on your company depending on which revenue silos caused the most reduction. Carry out the 20 budgets to June 30, 2021, to reflect what help you may need from banks and vendors. You can adjust sales levels based on activity to date and solid expectations for your various profit silos. What you do not want to do is a plan for X and wind up at X – Material $$ in Sales. Better to beat the pandemic budget to ensure that your cost adjustments are where you need them to be. As part of the sales exercise both direct and indirect expenses need to be budgeted to arrive at an estimated gross profit for each budget. Each manager must bite the bullet and come up with a plan and be accountable for the plan until the industry returns to normal. Next, prepare a monthly cash flow analysis using the budget data to determine cash burn during your recovery period, and how much additional funding may be needed assuming at least an 18-month overall recovery period starting March 20. And keep in mind that cash flow is based on collections and not sales numbers. We all know that budgets are

numbers on a piece of paper. Unless there is accountability to meet those numbers, you are just wasting your time. All managers must be made aware that any differences, either up or down, impact the actual cash balance reflected at the 18-month level. This exercise will help address fixed, semifixed and variable expenses, and do not forget that the cash budget includes bank and other fixed obligations appearing on the balance sheet. Schedule 2 meetings a week to review revenues and expenses and how they are trending compared to budget and cash flow analysis. This continues until you are over the hump. Once the budget and cash flow analysis is under control management should be looking for ways to change and adjust the operation and business plan to eliminate non-profitable segments of the business and at the same time evaluate all systems and processes to determine what is not working and what adjustments would make them work better. Let us face it, you need to reduce spending and optimize costs. Vendors should be approached regarding pricing and payment terms. WE NEED RELIEF FOR THE REMAINING SEGMENT OF THE 18 MONTH RECOVERY PLAN. Price reductions help if you are doing any buying. Stretching out payment terms really helps even if there is an interest charge involved. On the other hand, collection efforts and programs should be made available to incentivize customers to pay sooner than they normally would. GET THE MONEY IN WHILE IT IS STILL AVAILABLE. Financing arrangements should be adjusted to defer principal payments. Or how about interest-only for six months. This is where those projections and cash flow analysis comes in handy because it shows that you are managing the situation and have spent the time to adjust internally to meet the challenges presented by the pandemic. Spending, if any, should focus on areas that supply the bulk of your absorption factor. Make the effort to communicate with “profitable” customers to establish how you can assist them to get over the hump. Everyone is expecting a lot of change caused by the pandemic. Ask customers what they will be changing
Bottom Line continued and revamp your product and services to meet those needs. Every crisis provides opportunities to take advantage of poorly managed competitors. Face it, there will be dealers who do not make it and you probably have an idea of who those dealers are. You could pick up market share buying up the assets of a failed operation or by just offering superior products and services to their customer base, which may be lacking as the competitor slides into bankruptcy. If you attack the customer base that is the prudent approach.
Buying the assets is another matter that under these circumstances requires the involvement and support of your vendors. Wouldn’t it be nice to take advantage of this situation that improves the profit potential of your business?

Sales Trends Jeffrey Gitomer
Sales Managers success requirements are tough Stop managing, start leading. Sales managers beware. No one wants a manager, but everyone wants a leader. If you think about it, there are great world leaders, but no great world managers. There is one universal misconception among every bad sales manager they all think they’re doing a great job! There are thousands of sales managers (and bosses) who do a great job and unfortunately, at least an equal amount who don’t. Many sales managers have risen through the ranks by superior sales performance and are made managers without any (or minimal) training. Most of these “managers” will fail their company twice. Once because they are unprepared for the job, and once because they have left their former position of superstar salesperson creating a sales volume void. There are seven areas of expertise a manager must possess to perform successfully. How many does your sales manager perform to perfection? 1. Administrating Setting policy, dealing with reports, making sure the flow of paper (from orders

into commissions out) is error-free, and coordinating the selling, delivering, and servicing process. 2. Recruiting Going out to find (and solicit) people who may be qualified to sell for the company. 3. Hiring Determining by questions, responses, and gut feeling, who is a great candidate for, and most likely to succeed at a sales position. When a person is selected, an integral part of the hiring process is to fully explain all expectations of the job. To set and agree upon sales goals (a nicer word for quotas). And to get and give commitments to specific performance. The best way to do this is to draft a commitment document that has listed what the company will do and what the salesperson will do. Be specific as to sales goals to be met. Have both parties sign the document? It should be reviewed in every performance evaluation. 4. Training If you want to win, win, win, you better train, train, train. Sales managers should lead weekly training meetings, do on the job training with the staff, attend every seminar possible, listen to sales and management tapes in the car every day, and read six books a year on management, sales, and attitude. 5. Motivating If you want success, you must create an atmosphere in which success can occur. This means a continuous (every minute) positive attitude and atmosphere must exist. It means recognizing and rewarding great performance. Managers create this atmosphere. What kind of atmosphere, recognition, and attitude comes from your manager? If the atmosphere is lacking, or if a manager is using his or her ounce of power to show “who is boss,” I guarantee three things will happen. • There will be a high turnover of salespeople. • The manager will blame everyone else but themselves. • The manager will eventually get the deserved “ax” after doing thousands of dollars in damage. Interestingly it’s not the manager’s fault. It’s the fault the company president for not providing adequate training, or not selecting the right person for the job or both. 6. Selling Managers (and trainers) who don’t sell every day lose touch with reality. How can you lead your sales force if you don’t know what the customer needs? There should be a regular pattern of selling both with reps and alone in a leadership position. The rule is simple If you aren’t selling, you can’t lead.
Sales Trends continued 7. Leading by example This applies to all aspects of the six areas above. Don’t tell someone to do something. Show someone how to do something and provide the support and training to get it done. As a manager you want your sales team to succeed. The best way to do this is to lead the way. Remember, it’s not up to them to succeed, it’s up to you to provide the atmosphere, encouragement, tools, and training so that success can occur. Tom Hopkins gives a great seminar on sales management. When he was asked to join a management team after an incredibly successful stint as a salesperson, he said yes on one condition. He wanted six months of intensive, hands-on management training before he accepted the position. That is how he succeeded.
How many months (weeks, days, OK hours) of management and leadership training has your manager had? The unfortunate answer for most is: not enough. Stop managing, start leading. If you think about it, there are great world leaders, but no great world managers.
