Honda Racing F1 Team. In his write-up he provides you with some valuable
guidance and insights into business development from his own perspective
after 25 years of Motor Industry experience working with The Ford Motor
Company, Aston Martin, building dealer networks, providing technical assistance
to Service Departments and of course running the Honda Racing F1 Team. In
his opening statement he writes, "The basics are all the same, whatever
the business." What follows in the rest of his Foreword is Formula

Doug Cook

"I have just finished reading "How to make more profit from your Service Department"'. I took the opportunity to work through it with a set of dealer management accounts and found this a most useful exercise in refreshing my knowledge of the various Service KPI in an actual scenario. Nationally I immediately saw ways of improving that dealer's departmental profit! Even the best run workshop cannot fail to pick up ideas to improve profitability. The book should be on every Service Manager's desk."
