Attitude Is Everything
Attitudes are your most important tool to sell more, especially now, while everything is going on. When you walk out with a spring in your step & a smile on your face to greet every customer, you just buried the last 3 salespeople they met down the street, and that’s before you even say anything. …
How Wade handled ‘price’ and held gross!
“Thank you, Joe! I have so much more confidence after attending your Closing & Negotiation Workshop! You just know when a customer is going to be tough, and it usually starts right after the greeting – when they bombard you with price related questions. I counted 4 times that I bypassed those, just so I …

Would Your Case Hold Up In Court?
Partly because social media is the main source of information for so many people, it’s amazing how many have lost the ability to ‘discuss or debate’ a topic. That same thought pours over into sales because ‘selling’ is a discussion / debate you have to control to gather the information you need to build value …
One of the Most Common Questions We’re Having…
Let’s talk about the questions we’re getting now… “Joe, why do you keep talking about your 8 steps to the sale when we have almost no inventory to sell? In real life, we either have the car they want or we don’t, and they either buy it or they don’t.” ————— I love it when …
When You Can’t Change “What Is” You Have To Let Go Of “What Was”
And that’s the problem some people are having… When it comes to adapting and adjusting, some can, and some can’t. Because we talk to so many dealerships every day, we hear both, ‘I can’ & ‘I can’t’ – even in the same markets, with the same issues. Even with the pandemic shutdowns, safety and sanitation …
How bad is business now?
How bad is business for most dealerships? There is no general answer to that right now. Seems like most of the US and Canada were in a lockdown and most dealerships couldn’t open for sales, and many may be slowly reopening over the next month. During this time, I’d hope that most of those were …
Service to Sales…
“From ‘service’ to ‘sales’ with 200 units my first 8 months.” “Joe, I’ve been in the car business over 24 years and recently made the switch from service to sales. I knew a lot about cars, but selling them was a whole different process and I was lucky that my dealership subscribes to your online …
You’ll Sell More When You Count Correctly
4 x 25 Does Not Equal 50 If your dealership requires you to track what you do and count the people you talk to each month, my bet is your total ‘ups’ hover right around 50 a month. How do I know? Because we surveyed 3,555 salespeople and asked, “Counting everyone who shows any interest …
What’s your choice…20/60/20?
Ask Joe: “What do you see as far as sales for the rest of 2018, will it be good or bad?” In my manager’s newsletter this month, we’re talking about the 80/20 rule, which is really the 20/60/20 rule and about how it applies to almost every group of people. Between our sales and support …
Leave me alone – I’m working!
Wouldn’t it be great to work with 10 other 30 car a month salespeople who are all on the same page, working smart, and making money? That atmosphere is all about doing a great job, having fun, making money, and making customers happier than they’ve ever been with their purchase. Peer pressure and peer distractions …
‘Best Price’
A friend wanted my help to buy a car. She knew exactly what she wanted, and just wanted me to help her get a ‘deal’. I was buried, so I gave her the secret to finding the best deal in town… I told her to call 5 dealerships, describe what she wanted, ask them for …
