$ to parts people ratio

jimm,
This number can vary. It is your gross sales per employee in the department minus the parts manager. This includes your parts advisors, inventory control, drivers and such.
We have found, through experience, that the larger the wholesale operation the more people it takes to do it and while the gross numbers might stay the same the profit numbers don't increase quite as fast anymore. The numbers we have seen are around $25,000 to $35,000 per employee.
Gross Profit per employee should then be between $15,000 and $20,000 based on the above numbers.
If you are a member of NADA, you can get these numbers through their website as well.
