Daily Routines
Maintain Vehicle Stock
Enter onto the system any new stock that arrives using the designated process, i.e. book in from despatch notes or an invoice. Use the same type of document every time, and make sure that the stock number allocated in Platinum is written on the piece of paper. Pass this to accounts when complete.
Create Sales Orders
If a customer wants to buy a bike, make sure that a sales order is created on the same day. This means that deposits in particular are entered onto the system at the correct time, which is vital for the daily takings.
Weekly Routines
Stock Take
- Carry out a stock take. Print a stock report and review to make sure that the stock in Platinum is accurate.
Follow Up
Use your preferred method to extract customers contact information to:
- Follow up sales made in the previous week to check that all is well.
- Follow up sales enquiries.
- Get in touch with people who bought 12, 24, 36 months ago and check all is well.
Monthly Routines
General Housekeeping
Review outstanding sales orders and check that they are all still current. Run a stock list and check for vehicles paid for or that have been in stock for too long.
