Specs, millimeters, torque, hydraulic pressure… customers check out FAST when advisors go "full tech mode." That's where analogies change the game.
In this episode of Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki, I share one of my favorite techniques that helps customers understand repairs without feeling overwhelmed: turning technical jargon into relatable stories.
I'll cover:
-
Why customers decline work when they don't understand the language
-
How to use simple, everyday analogies (like crayons, sneakers, or coffee filters)
-
The power of humor and storytelling to reduce tension and win trust
-
How to practice analogies as a team for fun, memorable customer experiences
-
A weekly challenge: turn two MPI jobs into analogies and test them with your team
When you swap tech talk for real talk, customers nod, laugh, and approve more often. Analogies make the complex simple — and that's where credibility (and sales) live.
