Re: Suggestions for GM's Plan to Congress???
0) Show up prepared to any future hearings.
1) Sell OnStar. Personal cell phones are rapidly making the integrated cell obsolete. Look what Ford did with Sync.
2) Use loan money to reduce the 'labor gap' today. Pull ahead the VEBAs and health care agreements to get them off the books now and set the record straight w/ Gettlefinger.
3) Get the vehicle's feature packages in line with other makers. Stop adding so much content and increase margins on the fully loaded ones.
4) All new marketing department with a cut-throat campaign. No more silly 'the sky is falling, no wait, it's shoes' commercials.
5) Win the PR war by realizing that America does not pity the company, admit some fault rather than pointing figures, and make some changes to have the public believe GM is taking the necessary steps to turning around.
6) Bring Holden's over as is and top spending useless millions on unique fascias. The Holden's always look better than the Pontiac's anyway.
7) Same w/ Opel and Saturn.
