Sept. 12, 2011 — The Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of New Jersey (AASP/NJ) will host two regional meetings covering ALLDATA Collision later this month.

Estimology expert and consultant Larry Montanez of P&L Consultants will lead the discussions, which will cover:

• Why you need proper OEM repair information
• How to find proper OEM repair information
• What information is provided in the system
• How to write a proper estimate using ALLDATA
• How to charge and negotiate the information
• Liability issues

“These meetings will be the first of several we have lined up for the next few months,” AASP/NJ Executive Director Charles Bryant says. “With the economy the way it is, there can never be enough information available to help our industry members become more profitable. AASP/NJ hopes our members will take advantage of these opportunities to learn how to improve their businesses.”

The meetings will take place Sept. 27 at the Quality Inn in Toms River, N.J., and on Sept. 29 at the Quality Inn in Totowa, N.J. For more information on AASP/NJ, go to aaspnj.org.
