The importance of a strong management team is essential to the operations of every successful dealership. Having a clear focus about management principles and systems is what underpins a dealership’s health. The Management Day is all out ensuring delegates get the most up to date information on healthy business practices for the modern auto dealer.

The AADA National Dealer Convention 'Management Day' workshops brought to by ManheimFowles will operate throughout the day and there will be ample opportunity for delegates to spend valuable time visiting all the exhibits on display throughout the Pentana Solutions Trade Village.

The day begins with the Drive.com.au breakfast and is sure to get off with a ‘bang’ as Australian funny man Shane Jacobson aka 'Kenny' takes to the stage to uplift you with his hilarious brand of comedy.

However we'll quickly get down to business when the Deloitte Panel takes to the stage for an in depth look at two areas that dealers are always left scratching their heads over - commission structures and how much income tax you should be paying.

In these times of tight margins dealers must be vigilant with every cent, so this group of five leading tax, accounting, management consulting, and training providers for the retail industry will put you on the right track. This is your opportunity to ask the questions that have been puzzling you and receive the answers that you're looking for.

Delegates will also be treated to a sumptuous banquet to be held right in the trade village, compliments of our founding sponsor Pentana Solutions.

The AADA Convention workshops have always been one of the highlights for delegates and this year's offerings have been purposely selected to work on increasing your profits.

Alan Syer will change the way you think about your used car department, turning it into the profit centre you've always sought. Paul Quilligan will delve into service returns, demonstrating how this segment of your dealership can be more efficient, and Simon Bowkett will impress upon you consistency in ensuring superior sales performance.

The Management Day will leave you brimming with ideas and renewed inspiration to infuse a new, forward-thinking approach to your business practices.

The business of the Convention ends with a highly relevant Keynote Address titled 'Meeting the Challenge' by international guest David Martin, a session that will leave you in no doubt about how you can take home all that you have gained at the 2010 AADA National Dealer Convention and make sure it's put to good use.

Finally you will enjoy a truly wonderful evening at the carsales.com.au Grand Finale Dinner where food, music and friends will come together for an unforgettable evening.
