April 19, 2011 — Sherwin-Williams recently hosted its first Vision Group meeting with Canadian collision repair professionals.
The repairers are part of the company’s A-Plus Network, a program that combines business solutions to help shops improve customer service, employee growth, insurance relationships, process refinement, productivity and profitability, according to Sherwin-Williams. The company launched the program in 2000 in the U.S. and now runs five groups, with plans to add more.
“We are very proud to launch our first A-Plus Network Vision Group in Canada,” said Bob Leibel, Sherwin-Williams’ director of sales and operations in that country. “We have seen the effectiveness of our other vision groups, where members work together and learn from each other. These groups tend to help all members produce increased financial performance with improved sales, gross profits and bottom line net profits. We appreciate the hard work, determination and commitment all these collision professionals are making to better their businesses.”
Sherwin-Williams collaborates with 20 Group provider Square One Systems to administer and operate the Vision Groups. For more information, go to a-plusnetwork.com or call 800.798.5872.
