September 5, 2018—Assured Performance provided a report on the results of their first Business Development Summit held Aug. 8-10, 2018 alongside NACE Automechanika in Atlanta.
The focus was on certified repair provider success and business excellence based upon the quickly changing market and business demands.
The summit spanned a total of three days and followed a unique format allowing attendees to customize their experience to their own interests in the wide variety of critical “non-commercial” information offered. Representatives of over 1,600 certified repair business locations attended. The various breakout sessions were standing room only at times and all received rave reviews.
Summit speakers included industry notables such as Michael Anderson, principal with Collision Advice, Darren Huggins, national collision director for Berkshire Hathaway Automotive, Mark Zoba, manager of collision parts growth aftersales, Nissan North America and more.
Individual attendees and specially selected “delegates” exchanged insight into industry trends, and growth and profit strategies. Attendees learned how to leverage business tools and best practices for greater business performance, quality integrity, industry trends, as well as growth, profit and financial success strategies through a series of presentations, demonstrations, and panel discussions.
According to Scott Biggs, CEO and founder of Assured Performance, “Our goal is to ensure that every shop in our collective networks is not only OEM Certified, but also a best-in-class, exceptional business operation adequately prepared to meet the business demands of today and tomorrow. The collaborative effort by everyone involved was major industry milestone. We collectively recognize that all of our business’ success is based upon their business’ success."
