Most dealership service drives rely on a transactional walk-around process focused on protecting the store instead of serving the guest. Advisors are trained to look for pre-existing damage, judge buying intent, and rush through inspections—creating friction, mistrust, and missed opportunities.
The result?
- Low trust at the write-up
- Inconsistent advisor performance
- Poor safety item closing rates
- Declining retention and CSI scores
Fixed Ops Doc Service Drive Consulting and Training replaces this outdated approach with a repeatable, experience-based process that eliminates friction and builds confidence from the very first interaction.

Our Service Drive Consulting and Training centers around the WOW-CARound™ Inspection, a structured yet human approach that focuses on passion, ownership, urgency, and follow-through.
Key elements of the WOW-CARound™ process include:
- Relationship-first engagement before transitioning to transaction
- Consistent word tracks that overcome time, price, and trust objections
- A six-point walk-around process that reinforces safety, care, and professionalism
- “Perfect Practice” training that ensures every advisor executes the process the same way, every time
This method turns the service drive into a trust-building performance, not a checklist—leading to higher approval rates and a dramatically better guest experience.

When advisors execute the WOW-CARound™ consistently, everyone wins:
Guests: Higher trust, better experiences, and confidence in recommended services
Advisors: Fewer objections, less stress, higher approval rates
Technicians: Increased flat-rate hours and stronger advisor relationships
Service Department: Improved production, reduced unapplied labor, higher ESI
Dealership: Increased retention, repeat business, and long-term sales growth
Our Service Drive Consulting and Training programs focus on execution, accountability, and measurable outcomes—not theory.
