Marine Retailers Association of the Americas and Spader Business Management have formed an online education partnership, resulting in the launch of three powerful new courses within the MRAA Interactive Virtual Training System.
Led by Spader Business Management President John Spader and divided into eight separate chapters, “One Dollar Empowerment©” headlines the group of new offerings. Not only will this virtual course strengthen a dealer’s core understanding of financial metrics, but it also will allow subscribers to initiate important financial conversations with their team regarding such topics as the key expense ratios to monitor, how to calculate those ratios, and tactics to improve net profit.
“We’ve been researching the opportunity to serve the dealer community through online education for years,” Spader said. “MRAA’s virtual training platform came along at the right time, allowing us to expand our service to the boating industry alongside a trusted partner.”
