AutoShopNews Newsletter - Editorial:

   We at AutoShopNews would like to Invite you to be a part of our new project here at ASN. This is a new venture for us in reaching out to the vehicle service community with a venue of looking into the real time issue of "Business Management".

   We would like this newsletter to communicate problems and solutions to real life challenges that face most business owners and managers in a very competitive and changing environment.

   We will be accepting sponsors that will provide input and insight into “Today’s” problems, issues, and solutions. One of our sponsors will be ACS, the developer of ShopController Automotive Management Software.

   AutoShopNews would like to bring to this forum new and exciting ways to optimize the business management experience. Please drop me an email with your suggestions and opinions and we will do our best to include them in our articles.

Staff comments:

   “It takes time you don’t have. It is not fun to do. It is that very annoying thing that you have to do when you could be doing anything else! That is only part of the list!

   It is also the key to your long term success and vital to your bottom line.

   Repairing vehicles requires the right tools and skill set. Well, management is a lot like any other set of tools or controls. Done right, management gives you the tools you need to steer your business where you want it to go.

   Management is the set of tools that can be used to see where your business is going before it stalls out or runs into trouble.

   Management is the diagnostic tool set used to fine tune a business and keep it running correctly.

   Remember it is not your father’s Oldsmobile©. Well, it’s not your father’s economy either. The way we do business is changing. It will never be quite the same again.

   The best guarantee that any business, or person has is the guarantee of having a basic set of management tools in place and learning how to use them to steer the business where you need it to go.

   Developing your tools and skills in management is fairly easy to do. All that it requires is the decision to take control of your business’s future and following through with making the time to do it.”

   eAutoClub is a pioneer in what is known as, natural language Decision-making Support Systems (herein “DSS”), the next big step in computer processing power.

   Search engines efficiently find the exact words you tell them to, no more, no less. Database systems serve up customer information from a set of records, but only according to a specific request.

DSS is a new type of computer systems that extract “meaning” from your service data and takes action based on that meaning.

   The DSS efficiently and accurately makes business decisions, such as service need identification, that pinpoint sales opportunities or alerts managers of problems such as missed opportunities.
