Ted Ings is the
Founder and President of Auto University, Inc. He is featured at workshops
throughout North and South America and has recently been asked to present
workshops in both Europe and Africa. Mr. Ings works diligently with his trainers
and consultants to assure that all training manuals and processes are current
and germane to today's retail market. Because of his vast retail experience, Mr.
Ings is able to evaluate the needs of a dealership and make the necessary
recommendations for increased CSI, SSI, and ROI. His understanding of this
industry is a result of having worked his way through the ranks in the
automotive industry. He has held every retail position from sales consultant
through general manager, serving at two of the largest Ford dealerships in the
United States.
In 1988, he personally orchestrated and managed his dealership's growth to the #
1 volume Ford Division 24-month lease dealer nationally. His retail success
broke new ground in the development of Ford's Red Carpet Lease.
In 1991, Mr. Ings entered the retail education arena. He
then developed and provided in-house training to 600 retail import, domestic and
luxury dealerships throughout North America and the Hawaiian Islands.
