  4. What are the Key Points to Accessories Sales and the Service Drive? • Process:Accessory presentation needs to be an integral part of your Service Drive process • Menus and Tools:Sharing menus with your customers that show all available accessories for each model. Tools to help you answer customer’s questions with confidence!!! • “JUST ASK !!!!”: They can’t say no if you don’t ask

  5. The Soft-Sell Approach • Invite the Customer to join you which can increase interest and obtain agreement on key findings • Hand the customer the “Accessory Menu” and let the customer know that “These are the most common accessories our service customers have installed while their vehicle is here for service” • Start on the driver's side, releasing the hood • Move clockwise around the vehicle, watching for any body damage as you walk around the car • Check the wiper blades, asking the Customer if he/she could see well the last time it rained • Get the tread depth off the vehicle tires and note it on the write-up sheet. The tire condition is inspected for indications of the need for balance, alignment, or replacement • Take the customer to your desk to continue the Repair Order write-up, asking the customer “Did you see anything on the accessory menu you would like to install while your vehicle is here today for service?” If the customer is not interested at the present time, give the customer a copy of the menu to take home.
