Williams, MBA Retirement Planning Specialist Succession planning is the most complex form of family planning as it encompasses a number of emotional, financial, control, tax, ownership and legacy issues that can destroy the very fabric of the close-knit families that the plans are designed to provide for. Most dealerships are family businesses, wherein the succession plans are further complicated by having to comply with the manufacturer’s mandates. In addition, dealerships often employ a number of family members that are related by blood or marriage. When we dig deeper, we often find that dealers have family members not employed by the dealership, but reliant on dealership profits for lifestyle support. Additionally, family owned dealerships are often key employers within their respective communities. Many of their employees are like extended family members, and have been crucial to the success of the dealership; yet their well-being is seldom addressed in the owner’s succession plans. When we dig deeper, we often find that dealers have family members not employed by the dealership, but reliant on dealership profits for lifestyle support. In February 2012, I addressed several dealers at the MDD Winter Business Meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada asking eight questions during my seminar. These questions are designed to help dealers address the core “human element” challenges that often undermine the intent of the best written legal documents. Please consider these questions when creating or updating your succession plan. The 8 Questions to a Successful Succession Plan 1. Have you completed a personal Financial Plan to address your departure date, lifetime income needs, & estate protection? 2. Do you know how much your dealership is worth? 3. Do you know how to increase the value of your ownership interest by enhancing your most valuable asset – your employees? 4. Do you know how to transfer dealerships to family members, co-owners or employees tax efficiently? 5. Do you know how best to sell your dealership to a third party to help maximize cash, minimize taxes and reduce risk? - SUCCESSION — Continued on Page 3 1 Shaw Honored In Vegas! LAS VEGAS, Nev.

SAVE THE DATE Dealer Development Summer Business Meeting with MDD 20 Group Sessions August 7-9 2012 at the Renaissance Center, Detroit, MI Michael Bates, Vice-Chair, Ron McCants GM Minority Dealer Director, Dealer Development Advisory Council 2 MDD - SUCCESSION — Continued From Page 1 - From the Council Dear Dealers, Our priorities for 2012 and beyond are straight-forward: Helping to grow and strengthen the minority dealer portfolio. To accomplish our mutual goals, we dialogue with GM leadership every month, either by conference call or in person about ideas and concepts that will help benefit minority dealers. In our March face-to-face meeting, the Council had the opportunity to meet with three GM leaders new to the group, Brian Small, General Manager, US Sales Support, Brian Lee, Director, Dealer State & Government Relations and Ron McCants, Director, Dealer Development with direct responsibility for the Minority Dealer Development Program. On behalf of the Council, thank you for your willingness to listen, ask questions and openly seek our feedback. And, as your dealer partners, it is our responsibility to provide input and collaborate with GM to move the Program forward. To keep you up to date on council business -- We welcome Charles Winton, dealer principal of Estero Bay Chevrolet in Estero, Florida, our new African American representative on the Council. On a sad note, Wayne Abbs, dealer principal of WayneNeal Chevrolet in Commerce, GA, passed away in late December. Our deepest sympathy to Wayne’s family, he will be missed. Now, the Council has an open Native American seat. We would like to fill that seat so feel free to contact me if you are interested. Plans are well underway for the Dealer Development Summer Business Meeting, August 7-9, 2012 in Detroit. Whether you’ve been in your dealership for some time or only recently joined the GM minority dealer family, seriously consider attending the meeting, especially the 20 group sessions. It’s all about helping each other and paying it forward! Regards, Todd A. Ingersoll, MDAC Dealer Co-Chair Dealers who would like to speak with a council member can reference the GM Minority Dealer Advisory Council list on page 9. 3 6. Have you implemented necessary steps that insure continuation of your dealership in the event of death or disability? 7. Have you provided for your family’s security and lifestyle continuity if you die or become incapacitated? 8. How will you convert your success into significance? There is much more to a successful succession plan than well written legal documents. Addressing the human elements within the context of the document may be key to maintaining family, partnership and employee harmony long after the departure of the grantor from the business.

No one would argue that these days running an auto dealership is a lot more challenging than it was a decade ago. In today’s environment, it takes precise multi-tasking skills and a multiprong business approach. That is the path Pamela Rodgers, owner of Rodgers Chevrolet in Michigan, has chosen. By using this business approach, along with the implementation of best practices and by holding staff accountable for results, the dealership has seen a 59% increase in service department profitability and a 116% increase in the store’s overall net profit. As part of the program, an NCM retail coach meets regularly with the entire management team and thoroughly goes through the P&L for every department. There are specific goals and targets to achieve and those are also reviewed at the meetings. Coaching is offered to improve performance, identify issues and to keep everyone on track. Managing expenses is also critical. During the downturn, the store learned how important it was to watch their expenses. They examined closely their costs for uniforms, telephone, software, and even what they were spending on coffee in the dealership. While they made the cuts necessary to reduce expenses, when it came to customer touch points, they maintained a top tier level of service. They also examined technology, marketing and advertising costs, and developed a more strategic approach to business development. Not surprisingly they focused on retaining existing customers and reached out to orphan customers from areas where GM dealers closed their doors. Pamela Rodgers has been a General Motors dealer in Michigan since 1993. Her first Chevrolet dealership was in Flat Rock and her current location is in Woodhaven. With an MBA in Finance from Duke University, she knows firsthand how important fiscal discipline is in running any successful business. When the industry hit the wall in 2009, Pamela went looking for resources to help improve efficiencies and build her network. The solution was to join an NCM® Associates 20 Group. “Attending 20 Group meetings provides incredible insights on managing the business process and helps keep me at the top of my game,” Pamela said. This has been proven in her results; as of June 2011, the store’s net profit was up 116% year over year (YOY) and in the new car department profit was up 214.8% with new unit sales up 19.5%YOY. While Pamela empowers the managers to handle their department budgets, any expenditure exceeding a set limit has to be submitted for review before they proceed with these purchases. Knowing the process, the managers thoroughly vet the product or service they are considering for purchase and stand ready to make a business case for its purchase. These numbers become even more impressive when you realize the dealership is located among a number of Ford manufacturing facilities and a good portion of the area population have family members who work at one of the Detroit Three. Rodgers’ NCM® retail coach is Terry Wichmann, who shared, “After working with Rodgers Chevrolet, I am very impressed by the great handle they have on their expense structure. From my experience and observations, this is a critical component in the profitability equation. When I see net profit, service business and new vehicle units up yearover-year it tells me they have strong processes in place.” Knowing the retail landscape and understanding the competition has kept Rodgers Chevrolet ahead of the curve and out of fiscal straits. “We have implemented the NCM Profit Correction Meeting Program and the management team enthusiastically bought into the program once they saw how it can improve their departmental profits. I personally New car sales may be the focus of dealership advertising, but the Fixed - RODGERS — Continued on Page 7 6 MDD - RODGERS — Continued from Page 6 - Operations area is the engine driving profitability. In this area, Rodgers Chevrolet has turned in a stellar performance and is showing a profit increase of almost 60% since the beginning of the year in Service and a 97% increase in Parts and Accessories. Training plays a critical role and Service Advisors participate in regular training classes and have a solid process they follow for each transaction. It begins with greeting the customer by name, putting the customer’s vehicle on an alignment machine which instantly indicates if any of the wheels are out of alignment, and doing a thorough walk-around of the vehicle in the service lane. Customers really appreciate this approach and as a result customer pay repair orders are an integral part of Fixed Ops profits. The focus on process and the details carries over into the sales area too. The pre-owned department is selective in the units they acquire, and once a unit hits 60 days on the lot it gets an “all eyes on” look to determine the course of action to move the unit via wholesale or other channels. And, with an average new vehicle inventory of 220 units at any given time, management keeps a close watch on which units move quickly, where they need some additional marketing promotions, and what options they have when ordering new units. Watching these metrics and using NCM Benchmark® data from comparable dealers in similar markets helped the new car department profit increase 214.8% with new unit sales up 19.5%YOY. You don’t get results like these without a solid team behind each area of the dealership. Rodgers attributes much of their performance to a structured sales training regimen. They focus on rapport building exercises and techniques, listening skills, and product knowledge. Knowing more about the product being sold than the customer walking in the door is paramount. Rodgers Chevrolet works hard to find and hire the right people. Each candidate goes through a number of interviews with various managers and team members. They ask themselves, “Does the candidate appear to respect him or herself?”; “Do they exhibit traits that indicate they would respect our customers?” If not, they aren’t hired at Rodgers Chevrolet. According to Rodgers, people are the key to the operation. “We can teach them abilities, we can’t teach them willingness,” Rodgers said. And since women influence over 70% of vehicle purchases, Rodgers Chevrolet makes sure women are part of their team. The F&I Manager, one of the Sales Managers and two sales team members are women. And, with women holding such a strong influence over the purchasing and servicing of vehicles, it only made sense to Pamela Rodgers to make sure their female clientele feel comfortable and have the option of dealing with a woman during the sales and finance transaction. The NCM Benchmark® data is critical, “You can’t manage what you can’t measure. We constantly look at the numbers,” Rodgers said. About NCM Associates, Inc.
