Good vs. Getting Better
80% of salespeople are average – and I know a lot of you who read this every month aren’t just average – you’re good, so congratulations. My question is, “Do you want to get even better?” In the last 3 months on my blog we’ve covered • Goal Setting • Asking Better Questions • Things …
Success in 5 Critical Steps
Did You Know…Your success depends on 5 critical steps. 1. Believing that you can improve. “Whether you think you can, or can’t, you’re right.” Henry Ford 2. Your desire to improve. If you aren’t motivated, it won’t happen. 3. Your commitment to DO IT! “I’ll try”, “I’ll give it a shot”, “I’ll do my best” …
Set Goals For Success in 2021…
Joe’s book…“Get Everything YOU WANT Goal Setting For Salespeople” “I used to take the Joe Verde training that was provided to me for granted. I looked at it as a daily task I had to do, that may prevent me from potentially getting a customer on the lot. I was given Joe’s book Get Everything …
Help Your Customers Buy
If you were selling commercial vehicles, the buyer knows why they need the vehicle, that’s a given. But wouldn’t you need to know what their needs were so you could show them why your product is the perfect solution? If you sell cars, aren’t you also selling solutions to people’s wants and needs? Yes. To …

What are you working on to improve?
In the last few months on my blog, we’ve talked about… • Trade bad sales habits for good ones. Did you create a list of yours? Have you traded a few, so you can sell more? • Emotions Drive Sales On the lot, are you focusing less on the ‘transaction’ and focusing more on their …
Listen More & Talk Less
You have 2 ears & 1 mouth. If you want to sell more, listen more & talk less. Most people don’t listen well and salespeople are no exception – in fact we may be worse than everyone else. Why? Because we have an agenda, “Make A Sale”! That “I need to sell this” thinking is …
Emotions Drive Most Purchases
Customers buy a different car or truck because they want to, not because they need to. The more excited they are when they’re on the lot, the more likely they are to buy. (Think about it – when people are cautious, aren’t we all less likely to buy?) Their positive emotions come from the sights, …
Clear Goals = Fast Recovery
To get through this ‘stuff’ the most critical activity now is to have clear goals and plans to get you back on top. A positive statement: “I’m going to get through this” isn’t a goal, just a statement with nothing to back it up. Unrealistic goals like, “I’m going to work hard and make 10 …
“I sold 45+ cars in April (2020)”
Congratulations Seamus! “I wanted to touch base and let you know after one year of working in the industry, and from going to the Joe Verde sales workshop, I have had another record breaking month! With the proper mindset and just focusing on work and not the world around me falling apart, in April I …
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 …
Congratulations, Brandon!
“Even with the pandemic, I sold 22 units and was #1 in March after your sales workshop.” “I’ve been in the car business 2 years, and was already doing good averaging about 15 cars a month when the opportunity came up to attend your sales workshop. I knew what I would learn at your class …

Is it goal setting – or is it magic?
Goal setting is the best kept secret in the world and it’s the closest thing there is to real magic. It’s simple, and it’s powerful. You figure out what you want, then write a very detailed plan on how you’ll get it, and then presto – if you just follow your plan, 94% of the …
Getting A $1,000 Raise
“I’ve already given myself a $1,000 raise.” “I have been in the car business for 4 months. My first month was a training month for me. But after that, I hit the ground running. My first month I sold 8, then 13 and last month 11 and I’ve been top salesperson the last 3 months …
Goals Control Success
If you read my blog, you’ve probably remember me talking about how to grow from the bottom up. It’s really a very simple and logical process. Just keep improving your lowest months. That makes sense, but what about your highest months? More good news: by eliminating your bad months, you’ll also sell more on the …
Will You Sell More?
The ‘choice’ most salespeople ignore. Success, and more success, is dependent on a person’s motivation, desire, determination, and the self-discipline they apply to make it happen. (And SHAC of course.) In my first 5 years, 95% of us were stuck at 8 – 12 units, but there’s always someone you hear about who sells more. …
$80,000 so far…
