Working at a dealership

[SoMeWRX]

Hey guys,

I may have the opportunity to work in sales at a dealership here in the Portland area. However, neither I nor anybody I know has any real experience in this line of work so I want more information. Any of you guys have any pros and cons?

Thanks for any help,

Dylan

I know that sales can be a win/ lose deal depending on how much you sell each week. Maybe different dealerships are different.

There everyday , parked way out back and I'm the last bay on the right with all the Subaru stuff on the bench.

My advice, "Treat your customers the way you would want to be treated during a sale... know your product..... go into it with long term goals.... there is no thing as a regular schedule (just hope your better half understands) oh....Treat your customers the way you would want to be treated during a sale!" Its a up and down business, take the good months with the bad months and don't get down on yourself. Don't be a snake on the floor, this will come back to bite you in the ass. Lots of money can be made. It is a fun business. 14th year in auto sales and lovin it!
