Book excerpt: Dealer Development: OEM Regional Manager's Guide Introduction by Luke Sheppard The sharp end of the stick. The lightning rod. The business end of the OEM. However you choose to describe the role of the OEM Regional Manager, their importance in the mutual success of the dealer and OEM is indisputable. The role of OEM regional manager is not an easy one, and success is anything but guaranteed. It's a tough existence being the sharp end of the OEM's stick in the field and the recipient of the dealer's (and customer's) dismay. At the same time, you're expected to provide a tremendous amount of product and service support from your OEM to those same people. In my experience, many fail for various reasons, including a lack of understanding of the dealers' business and market, inadequate investment into the relationship they have with their dealers, and a lack of focus on outcomes that benefit both parties (us vs. them mentality still prevails). Success in this game, like many others, comes down to the fundamentals of effective collaboration. Enter, Walt McDonald. For more than four decades, Walt has been helping equipment and capital goods dealers collaborate with their OEM's to drive above-average results by using practical strategies, tactics, and tools. Walt has indeed seen it all in this industry, and he speaks the truth. His conviction about and steps to cultivate a mutually beneficial partnership with your dealer are wise words to be heeded by any OEM representative in this industry. I came to know Walt by reputation before having had the privilege to engage with him on a more personal level. When I made the jump from factory to dealer leadership, I knew that my learning curve would be steep. So I asked around about how I could accelerate my onboarding into the retail side of the equipment business. The response was nearly unanimous: Walt MacDonald and his Master's Program in Dealer Management. The easy-to-follow and implement step-by-step guide in Walt's program helped me become a much more effective general manager in far less time than I expected. I'm convinced this OEM Regional Manager's Guide will do the same for you. This book will help you identify what you need to know about your dealer's business, before the all too often loss of credibility that accompanies making overconfident and unfounded recommendations about their business. It will help you figure out which wins are mutually beneficial vs. those that have a one-sided advantage. You will learn how to quantitatively appraise your dealer and prioritize your efforts for their development. If you are an OEM Channel Executive, Regional Sales Manager OR Regional Product Support Manager or, a newer manager on the way up and tasked with growing your OEM's business, this book will provide you with the tools you need not just to grow the business, but help make your OEM and dealer stronger as a result. Knowing how to grow your dealer and focus your efforts for mutual success isn't easy. But there's no reason to make it harder than it has to be. This is the book that every OEM Regional Manager should read before your first visit to a dealership. With collaboration as your priority and this guide as your basis for success, you will be .

Book excerpt: From the # 1 New York Times–bestselling author of Black Hawk Down: The “shocking” story of the country’s unlikeliest drug kingpin (The Baltimore Sun). By the early 1980s, Larry Lavin had everything going for him. He was a bright, charismatic young man who rose from working-class roots to become a dentist with an Ivy League education and a thriving practice, and a beloved father with a well-respected family in one of Philadelphia’s most exclusive suburbs. But behind the façade of his success was a dark secret: Lavin was also the mastermind behind a cocaine empire that spread from Miami to Boston to New Mexico, catering to lawyers, stockbrokers, and other professionals, and generating an annual income of $60 million for the good doctor. Now, Mark Bowden, a “master of narrative journalism” (The New York Times Book Review) tells the harrowing saga of Lavin’s rise and fall in “a shocking American tragedy . . . [that] shoots straight from the hip” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette). “An engrossing crime story and a compelling morality tale.” —The Arizona Republic “Has all the elements of a chilling suspense thriller . . . A smoothly crafted, exciting, can’t-put-it-down book.” —The New Voice (Louisville)

At last, this "tribal knowledge" has been written indexed in the form of 500 documented Best Practices. THE THREE-VOLUME MASTER'S PROGRAM IN DEALER MANAGEMENT: Book One: "Achieving Excellence in Dealer/Distributor Performance" The first volume in the Dealer Development series, "Achieving Excellence in Dealer/Distributor Performance" focuses on how to optimize quantitative results . This text focuses on the 48 Critical Profit Variables or Performance Benchmark Standards for the five Dealer Revenue Centers: New and Used Machinery Sales, Rentals, Parts and Service. Book Two: "Strategies, Tactics, Operations for Achieving Dealer Excellence" This second volume, begins with building a Strategic Vision and provides a practical "how to" process for creating a winning Strategy.

Causes are discussed and possible solutions are referenced in detail by page in his two texts: "Achieving Excellence in Dealer/Distributor Performance" and "Strategies, Tactics, Operations for Achieving Dealer Excellence." What Dealers are saying: Doug Taylor, President, Owner, Earthborne Trucks and Equipment I initially became acquainted with Walter through reading his first book, "Achieving Excellence in Dealer/Distributor Performance." I read the book many times. The insight it gave me into my own dealership made me wish I had been given this book at the beginning of my career. We were able to apply many of the tools and concepts suggested by Walter in his book to our construction equipment and heavy-duty truck business. Now, after reading Walter's "Strategies, Tactics, Operations for Achieving Dealer Excellence" and understanding how we have applied many of these principals to building our growth and profitability plan, I am confident that my company will be positioned to grow in our market. Applying the right strategy will allow us to execute the changes we need, the first time, and within the reach of our companies resources. Dealers who utilize the Revenue Center Best Practice Audits will be able to identify strengths and weaknesses, will quickly start prioritizing the biggest opportunities for improving their dealerships. For us, a quick comparison of each manager's top 5 weaknesses started to set the framework for revenue center action plans. Dealers who Benchmark their operations against the recommended 48 Critical Profit Variables will be able to rank, by priority, which business areas offer the most incremental profit and growth. I personally encourage every equipment Dealer Principal to at least get Walter's two volume set of Dealer Development books on the principals and practices of Excellence in Dealer Management and get those books in the hands of every key person at the dealership.

Download or read book Dealers of Lightning written by Michael A. Hiltzik and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-05-13 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pulitzer Prize-winner’s classic account of the legendary research lab that gave rise to the Digital Age. In the 1970s and ‘80s, Xerox Corporation brought together a brain-trust of engineering geniuses dubbed PARC (Palo Alto Research Center). This brilliant group created several monumental innovations that triggered a technological revolution, including the first personal computer, the laser printer, and the graphical interface (one of the main precursors of the Internet). And when these breakthroughs were rejected by the corporation, these determined inventors turned their ideas into empires that changed the world. Based on extensive interviews with the scientists, engineers, administrators, and executives who lived the story, Dealers of Lightning details PARC’s rise from humble beginnings to a hothouse for ideas. It also shows why Xerox was never able to grasp the cutting-edge innovations PARC delivered. Michael A. Hiltzik offers an unprecedented look at the ideas, the inventions, and the individuals that propelled Xerox PARC to the frontier of techno-history—and the corporate machinations that almost prevented it from achieving greatness.

Download or read book The New Lombard Street written by Perry Mehrling and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-08 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the U.S. Federal Reserve began actively intervening in markets Walter Bagehot's Lombard Street, published in 1873 in the wake of a devastating London bank collapse, explained in clear and straightforward terms why central banks must serve as the lender of last resort to ensure liquidity in a faltering credit system. Bagehot's book set down the principles that helped define the role of modern central banks, particularly in times of crisis—but the recent global financial meltdown has posed unforeseen challenges. The New Lombard Street lays out the innovative principles needed to address the instability of today's markets and to rebuild our financial system. Revealing how we arrived at the current crisis, Perry Mehrling traces the evolution of ideas and institutions in the American banking system since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1913. He explains how the Fed took classic central banking wisdom from Britain and Europe and adapted it to America's unique and considerably more volatile financial conditions. Mehrling demonstrates how the Fed increasingly found itself serving as the dealer of last resort to ensure the liquidity of securities markets—most dramatically amid the recent financial crisis. Now, as fallout from the crisis forces the Fed to adapt in unprecedented ways, new principles are needed to guide it. In The New Lombard Street, Mehrling persuasively argues for a return to the classic central bankers' "money view," which looks to the money market to assess risk and restore faith in our financial system.
