Overview

You must make sure you understand which things you will be charged for. Training and implementation assistance can add up to a substantial amount. Make sure you understand and budget for your training costs. 

Agreeing on the key points that drive the sucess of your training program allow us to build a training plan and as a result will make your training time effective:

Procedure

Given that you have limited time and money to put into training. It is critical that we get the most out of any time and money spent on training. The planning steps above can make your training as time effective as possible:

  • The most time effective way to conduct your training program is to:

    • budget for as much on site training as you can justify

    • work with Readysell to build a training plan tailoring the training materials to your team and your training expectations

    • then use some remote training to supplement your internal training program

    • also regularly touch base with your Readysell training manager, at least once a week, and discuss progress

    • finally budget for at least eight hours ongoing remote training or one on site training session a year to keep up to date with Readysell best practice. As the product improves over time and staff change. We constantly find that sites that have been in for years fail to take advantage of new features or slip out of best practice due to staff leaving or not keeping up training when new features are released

  • The least time effective way to conduct your training is to try to do your own self training without any training plan, training budget, on site training or remote training.  This normally results in:

    • fragmented training where your team can get lost in the training materials

    • there can be many gaps in their training. Readysell are the experts on training dealers about our system, make sure you make use of our assistance

    • much waisted time as team members try to figure out how to use the system by themselves,often without reference to the training materials

This discussion could take between 2 to 4 hours depending on how many questions you have and how many transaction types and different procedures you have currently at your site.
