About Philip Stetson
Over 32 years Parts Operations Management Experience as well as Service, Body Shop, Fleet Vehicle Up-Fitment and Custom Accessory Sales and installation. Innovated Retail Marketing and Designing Creative Displays for both in-store and web based marketing. Internal and External Accessory programs with proven success in implementation, cost effectiveness and increased gross profit per unit. As New vehicle sales margins get tighter and F&I programs are being scrutinized by not only the Lenders but also the educated consumers of today, accessory sales is the only outlet to retain and gain gross profit per unit sold. My approach allows the dealership to stay competitive with the aftermarket installers as well as internet shoppers to keep this revenue source in-house. By implementing the proper procedures, not only has it increased gross profit per unit, it has increased CSI scores and customer retention, which have both been the pushback from the Variable and Fixed departments in the past and no longer can support that argument. Wholesale account marketing and business strategies utilizing shared resources such as delivery trucks, call centers and Outside Wholesale Managers to reduce expenses and increase market share. I have been very successful in growing this portion of the business. Internet Parts Marketing and Sales Specialist in both OEM and aftermarket parts and accessories. I started and grew the largest Toyota Parts & Accessory Internet sales department exceeding $2.6 million annually. I am a creative thinker, recruiter and trainer in various areas within Automotive Fixed Operations and my \"outside the box\" approach has been my driving force. My contact information and resume are attached below. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
