Car Sales Training 

     In the car sales training business there are many ideas about what works best. These ideas are shared, over and over, in showrooms and training rooms at dealerships across the world.

     Many times those ideas come from your fellow salespeople who are not very successful at selling cars. They are simply repeating what they heard from a person who said it worked, never taking time to analyze not only the techniques themselves but accurately guaging their effectiveness.

     I don't know about you but I'm not sure I want to bet my paycheck on guesswork.

WHERE DO YOU TURN FOR PROPER CAR SALES TRAINING?

     Some look to their fellow salespeople. You know, the ones that have  'experience' or have 'been there a long time'. Not always but many times what they find is that person is more interested in telling you what's wrong with the management team, the advertising, the inventory, the finance office....you get the picture. I'd almost guess you can see that person right now in your mind. So, what do you do?

     If you're like most salespeople in a dealership you look to your management team for effective training. By the way, if you are currently working for a dealership that does not believe in on-going training or training meetings I offer you this old gem...

On the job training is a good teacher but the tuition will kill you !
