Business Development Manager (BDM^®)

The daily practice of business development is guided by the Business Development Manager (BDM) who provides direction, discipline and skills needed in the BDC. This management position supplies the dealership with a new avenue for developing future leadership.

The roles of tracking, training, coaching and demonstrating define the position of the BDM and prepare him or her for future management positions. As an ally, the BDM ensures each sales consultant is successfully scheduling appointments and developing owner loyalty through proper training and coaching.

Traver Technologies can assist the dealership in selecting and training a BDM and provide compensation plans that fit within the dealership's expense structure. The initial BDM training consists of learning the principles of the BDS process, telephone skills, and software training at Traver Technologies' corporate headquarters in Houston, Texas.

In addition to the initial BDM training, Traver Technologies provides a series of ongoing courses specifically designed to further develop the skills of the BDM. These training events, held at Traver Technologies' BD College, are offered at various times throughout the year and are available to all Traver Technologies clients.
