Yes, I would recommend this course.
The service manager course has taught me so much! I can't believe it costs less than what other larger companies want. The course walks managers through improving their department by understanding where it is financially today. Then it teaches you how to review departmental expenses, and shows how to calculate current performance, become a mentor, and teach your staff to improve their performance.
The service manager course has become my personal handbook. It discusses everything from troubleshooting poor sales, forecasting, analyzing expense accounts, creating payment plans, and monitoring employee performance and what to do to improve departmental gross profit. The course even shows you how to mentor staff and start an inclusive company culture.
