LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y. -

Income development and organizational efficiency provider Select Dealer Service has chosen automotive industry online interactive learning and training development service Product Prep to be the exclusive online training service for its dealer partners.

Select Dealer Service provides auto dealers with customized strategic growth and development plans to increase dealerships’ profitability opportunities, and Product Prep said that company chose it for its targeted and relevant dealer-focused topics and compliance regulation courses.

Product Prep said its online learning and training development system includes a catalog of HD videos and curriculums designed for automotive teams in finance, sales and management departments.

The company said that as dealers begin operating as an essential business during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to continue driving education, training and certification. That makes e-learning an optimal service.

For the duration of the pandemic, Product Prep is providing its full platform of product knowledge and compliance certification courses to dealerships at no charge.

Also available at no cost to dealers, the company has launched its live webinar series featuring auto industry veteran and online trainer and coach, Gerry Gould.

“Product Prep allows our team to be more effective in training finance managers while expanding our training reach to include every department,” Select Dealer Service managing director John Munzert said in a news release.

Munzert continued, “Product Prep’s dealer-specific technology and reliable delivery method gives us a huge competitive edge in the market, and also gives our dealer clients a major advantage by having access to critical tools and training.”

Dealers now more than ever should stay informed and up to date on training, certifications and sales strategies, says Product Prep chief executive officer Todd Rothman.

“And Product Prep is proud to be able to provide high-quality content and essential learning and accountability to managers when it’s needed the most,” Rothman said.

Rothman continued, “We are fortunate to have leaders like Gerry join our initiative. The way dealership training is conducted may be changed forever, and we are proud to be ahead of the curve and at the tip of this industry evolution.”
