Been on the service side of cars my whole life, I’ve built engines and installed lift kits since I was 19. I am 23 now, I have kicked alcohol and caffeine out of my life as well as prioritize my sleep and eating schedule which has skyrocketed my work ethic and mood. I far surpass even my managers in effort and positive attitude at my current job and I’m going to move into car sales. Tired of working twice as hard as the guy next to me and getting paid the same. My current job has exposed me to sales and I’ve become a lot more comfortable and confident in my sales and social skills. Im ready for my pay to reflect my efforts.

The schedule always killed me so I started just taking time when I needed it I just learned to communicate the need to my manager and usually they'd be cool with me going home for lunch or going out to eat with my wife.

Really thinking starting a career in Auto sales. I’ve sold life insurance and luxury furniture before so I’m feeling hopeful. I love the customer interaction and really want to succeed. Glad to have found your channel, gives me some hope in the current market.

Very informative video Chris, I bought 2 cars from his dealership he’s a great salesperson.

I’m not in car sales, but I’m in sales and I agree you have to be all in sales is a skill it takes time to master and learn the ins and outs of the industry and yes u will eventually make money but the real money comes the longer you are in the business.

If there was a car salesman to trust, I would definitely trust you. 💙

35 years old, about to get into the sales position. Nervous but anxious

[jaybarnhart]

Besides selling to the customer, how hard is the basic job? Getting the paperwork? Logging into the computer? Processing the sale?

To everyone watching this.. there are sales jobs with a great base salary and commission. It’s just not in the car sales market. My advice… get one of those jobs. Sales is great but it’s feast or famine.

The funniest part about this video is

A. Every dealerships pay plan is different some are great others are awful.

B.same thing for scheduling it varies however at my current dealership we’re scheduled on average 50-60 every week and they do not tolerate if you come in late or leave early if you have nothing working. Plus good luck asking for time off.

C. Lastly if you plan on having any sort of social life with friends, family, your significant other good luck, because your schedule takes away from any time to yourself let alone anyone else

I’ve been doing it for 2 years I’m 22 but I’ve decided to go back to school

[Yoba-WanKanobi]

I got out after being fired from 2 dealerships back to back. Ive worked at 3 dealerships, one of which was a used lot i worked for almost 4 years. I was fired and got another job at a nissan selling new cars and later dodge. All i can say infailed miserably and lost my spark. Now i cant get an interview or dealerships dont take me serious. Going back to an hourly job. The car industry killed me from the inside completely. To many snakes.

Been thinking about making this move a long time now. I’ve been told I would be good at it but I’m not sure. I love cars. I have experience of delivering cars to customers and sign papers with them and also have customer service experience and sales by working as security before and currently at a uniform company. I like to be through when I do my research and I have some questions myself to make me decide to pull the trigger or not.

1. Do I have to get my omvic license before or after getting hired by a dealership.
1a. If I get hired by dealership would they help pay for the license or it’s something I have to do myself ? 1b. Would I be able to make sales in the first 2 weeks to cover my own expenses if I get hired before finishing my omvic license

2. What’s the best way to go to a dealer and get hired on the spot ? Meaning : what is the appropriate clothes to wear and which dealership are more likely to hire new guys in their 30s

3. What’s the average of commission per car sale and what’s a realistic average of earning in a week especially this economy ?

4. Which dealerships should I focus on to try and get hired at ?

All info appreciated and any other information related to them. Thank you in advance

Any tips for learning about the cars as there are various brands with different trims, years, functions and features.

Retired NYPD sergeant here. Just got into Mazda sales. Definitely not for me.
*Long shifts.
*$250 profit on New Cars.
*The manager uses sales associates move cars from one lot to another for several hours.
*Complete mismanagement.
*Customers sit around for hours trying to close the deal with the finance manager.
*No structure, no ethics, no courtesy.
*Hate it.👈

As an Auto tech EVEN if it's HELLA SLOWyou HAVE to show up on time and you HAVE TO stay late or until the bell rings to go home. It's so dumb. I rather come in 1 or 2 hours late vs staying at work for 5 hours doing nothing. I've been thinking about doing sales or other service positions.

[BeardyBakr]

Thank you bro, that’s very informative video

[Jude-zwwl]

Do you have to pay a higher tax rate on commissions like you do with bonuses?
