Company: Wayne’s Automotive and Towing Center
Location: Aiken, S.C.
Initially, Sherry Corbett started at Wayne’s Automotive and Towing Center as a dispatcher and grew with the company to her current position as manager of operations. They now have three locations and a repair shop. They also went from having one tow truck to having 26 tow trucks and from having three employees to 24 employees. She is consistently taking courses with the Automotive Training Institute and The Towing and Recovery Association. Ms. Corbett has also been certified as a Ask Patty Certified Female Friendly® since 2010. The AskPatty.com Certified Female Friendly® was designed specifically for automotive retailers to attract, sell, retain and increase loyalty with women.
The biggest challenge of Ms. Corbett’s career has been convincing the men to listen, whilst her greatest strength is her customer service skill set. Her greatest accomplishment has been getting the whole organization running smoothly and properly. Her vision is to be financially independent and to spend more time with my family; she has six children and grandchildren. Ultimately, Ms. Corbett’s inspiration comes from her husband, Jeff., who is very supportive.
Ms. Corbett wants to be remembered for always going above and beyond, having Outstanding Service for Tow Man of the Year from 2011 to 2013. She is member of Business Network International and the National Association of Professional Women. During her free-time, Ms. Corbett enjoys camping, riding her Harley, and spending time on the family farm.
