Proactive Training Solutions has been in the automotive training business for more than 30 years. That history matters because the automotive retail landscape has changed dramatically — from carline-dominant selling to internet-first customers to the current environment where AI, digital retail tools, and changing customer expectations are reshaping the entire sales process. We have trained dealerships through every version of this industry, and we continue to update our methodology to match where dealerships actually are.
How we work
Proactive Training Solutions provides both on-site training (trainers who work directly with your team in your store) and virtual training delivered through our AdaptVT platform. We don’t believe in training events — we believe in training cultures. A training event has a shelf life of about two weeks. A training culture, supported by management accountability and continuous practice, creates durable improvement. Our programs are designed to embed into how your dealership operates, not to require it to stop operating for a training day.
Regional presence, national reach
Proactive Training Solutions operates four regional offices and serves clients nationwide. Our headquarters is in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. We work with dealerships from single-point franchises to multi-rooftop groups across all major domestic and import brands. Our regional presence means we can provide on-site training without the travel friction that makes some national training programs impractical for stores outside major metros.
Trusted by 100+ companies
Over three decades, Proactive Training Solutions has worked with more than 100 companies in the automotive industry. Our clients include dealerships that have built their BDC operations from scratch with our training, stores that have rebuilt underperforming sales teams, and dealer groups that use AdaptVT as the consistent training layer across multiple locations. The common outcome: measurable improvement in the KPIs that determine dealership profitability — appointment rate, show rate, closing ratio, and gross per unit.
