Description

In SDR #330, Chris Collins, Christian Lafferty, and Hogi expose the 7 biggest pay-plan mistakes that cost dealerships money, motivation, and top talent.

From overcompensating mediocrity to confusing multi-page pay structures, this episode breaks down why most Service Advisor pay plans fail — and how to rebuild yours for higher performance, retention, and CSI.

You'll learn:

  • Why rewarding average performance destroys culture 
  • The truth about "socialistic" pooled pay systems
  • How to build pay plans that drive results, not resentment
  • Why changing pay plans too often kills trust
  • The one rule for paying on what advisors can control

Whether you're a Service Manager, Fixed Ops Director, or Dealer Principal, this episode gives you the blueprint for creating a pay plan that actually motivates — and keeps your best Advisors from leaving.

👉 Watch now and learn how top dealerships pay for performance, not problems.
