Kukui is pleased to welcome Cecil Bullard and the Institute for Automotive Business Excellence to the Kukui Certified Coaches program. IFORABE was easily identified as a candidate for Kukui Certified with unsolicited recommendations from a multitude of their clients, and other coaches in the industry. The Institute as a whole and its team members individually all practice the key tenets of the Kukui Certified program as part of their regular business practice, leveraging their decades of experience in the industry to help their clients improve their business and personal lives equally. Going the extra mile, they teach their clients to similarly focus on achieving success by providing the best customer service, the strongest support for their teams, and being a force in their communities. 



“I know that IFORABE is dedicated to helping their clients learn to run a better business. This does not only mean producing higher revenues, it also means producing happy customers, a happy team and a strong place in their community. These points are among the keystones of the Kukui Certified program and an example of how Cecil and his team not only go the extra mile but instill those values in their clients as well”  Todd Westerlund - CEO, Kukui

 

“I simply wouldn't be where I am today without Cecil. His knowledge and passion for our industry is second to none. Cecil has a gift for motivating and inspiring shop owners and I am honored to be part of his group.” Ryan Clo, Owner of Dubwerx, Avid Autowerx, & Just Saab

Cecil has had a great impact on me, my company and ultimately my personal life as well. He's taught me to find issues in my business, make repairs and monitor performance using my financials as diagnostic tools. There's a lot of opportunity in this industry (that's why I'm here!) but nothing comes easy. Cecil has helped me adjust my attitude and be confident in myself, which has helped me avoid countless pitfalls and grow my company properly. He's been a fantastic coach because I think his goals are not only to help shop owners but to ultimately improve the industry for the better! I owe a lot of my success to him, thanks, Cecil! Patrick McHugh, Bimmer Rescue Richmond, VA
