Proven strategies to grow your dealership

We are pleased to introduce four incredibly talented Strategic Partners with whom we have collaborated many
times in our global Dealer Development work in the construction equipment, agricultural equipment, material
handling, and heavy-duty truck industries.


Here at The McDonald Group, Inc. our Master’s Program in Dealer Management Seminar is having great
success in assisting Dealer Management teams to move their entire company up to the next performance level.
Our dealer training effort focuses on working with the dealership’s Owner(s)/General Manager, Service
Manager, Parts Manager, Rental Manager, and Machinery Sales Manager to assess their operations. These
dealer managers work as a team to examine and compare their operations to best industry practices and
world-class dealer performance metrics. We then identify significant opportunities for improvement in
profitability, market share, cash flow, and customer service. We employ useful “how to” management tools for
impacting positive change. And, we structure practical Action Plans with measurable progress milestones.


As part of this dealer self-assessment process, we frequently identify requirements for employee and Revenue
Center operations improvement. And, each of our Strategic Partners provides unique and highly effective
resources for machinery and equipment dealers to assist dealers to achieve specific performance
improvement objectives.
