In today's economic environment, it is more critical than ever to maximize your service profitability and operational performance in order to weather the current financial storm. BEI PROS is an innovative service profitability consulting / training group that has a proven track record in helping companies improve their bottom line profitability and operational results in service. We show you how to achieve 52% + GP in service while, at the same time, improving all levels of service to your customers. In addition, we will show you how to recoup the cost of any of our programs within the first 90 days.

BEI PROS recently announced that it has deposited $8,000,000 in profits to its $500,000,000 base of dealer clients in its first 23 months of operation. BEI PROS President, Jerry Newberry, and Vice President, Jeff Kelly, proudly announced these incredible results prior to entering into their 42nd consulting engagement as the experts in dealer service profitability and productivity improvement.

BEI PROS, founded in August of 2007, is the collaboration of two service executives' knowledge and experience gained during their careers with mega dealers and manufacturers.

Let's meet our expert team of "Service Improvement Specialists":

During Jerry's time with Global he was responsible for working with all global locations to achieve service operational benchmarks and a 52% companywide service GP. Prior to his career with Global Imaging, Jerry spent 10 years at Xerox Corporation and was a VP of service in the independent dealer environment.

Jeffrey Kelly, Vice President

Jeff has more than 20 years of experience in the office products industry. He has worked with Xerox Corporation as an industry service consultant, and as a Director of Service within the independent dealer environment. While working at Xerox Corporate headquarters, Jeff was responsible for going into service branches and implementing processes and systems to ensure maximum margins and field performance. Jeff's area of expertise is maximizing service operational efficiencies and profitability using proven systems.

BEI PROS has 3 specific programs they have developed to help the independent dealers maximize their results in service.

Let's talk to Jerry and Jeff to get some more insight on the services and offerings BEI PROS provides to the dealer community.

JERRY: Our mission with BEI PROS has always been focused on assisting the dealer environment in achieving high service profitability and maximizing service operational performance. We have developed proven processes and systems that have been tested and perfected in over 100 companies.

ENX: Jeff, tell us about the "Advanced Service Management-Operational Excellence &Profitability Improvement Training" program that PROS is offering.

As a result, we have developed a three-day, all encompassing training program that specifically focuses on addressing this area. Our world class training is guaranteed to provide the skill set needed for Service Management to improve an organization's operational performance and profitability, and to ensure that they
provide the highest level of customer service to their perspective market.
