So I started training for a new job as a car slaesman here in Memphis. Cool part is that it is for the group that owns the local Porsche dealership so I could wind up woking there (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) .
My question is this, are there any other sales guys here? Are you making good money? I am not worried about being able to sell but, with all the rebates and other stuff it doesn't seem there is much profit in new cars. I am looking for real answers since the coolness of working for a Porsche dealer won't put food on the table. Or course if they had a demo program...... |

I work at the local Porsche/Audi dealership and for the most part love my job. I have worked there for 9 years in various departments, with my last year and a half in sales. It takes awhile to build up a client base, but if you stick with it and are ambitious you can do quite well. What will you be selling?
One of the most important things in my eyes is not acting like a typical car salesman. The stereotypes are bad enough as it is. Catering to a high line customer is different than others. Let me know what specific questions you have and I will answer them the best I can. |
