30 cars a month!
My new 3-month unit average is 30 cars a month! “I graduated college with a criminal justice degree, and then I started selling cars at Fred Beans Ford, just over a year ago. We use Joe Verde for our training. Our store does group training 3 days a week with Joe’s online training (JVTN®), and …
Average up 3 units & gross doubled!
“I doubled my gross and increased my average 3 units after your workshop!” “I’ve only been selling cars for 3 months, after being on the service side for 5 years. Your Sales Workshop was great, and I came back and worked on Joe’s 8 step sales process. It is so easy to follow with every …
Takes more than Optimism to Hit your Goals
“I will sell 30 cars a month!” That is certainly optimistic, but… Optimism is just another word for highball. Hitting 30 takes goals, a plan, skills and discipline. Everybody says they want to sell more, earn more, build their customer base and more. The problem always boils down to the ‘trades’ you’ll have to make. …
Ready?
How you’ve been selling cars will need an update, as ‘back to normal’ is kicking in again. Why start now? Because the ‘back to normal’ changes started months ago. So if you haven’t put on your realistic glasses instead of the rose colored ‘I’m not concerned, everything will work out’ glasses, then fasten your seatbelt. …
Ready for some “Recurring Revenue”?
When you improve your selling and income average – you create RR (Recurring Revenue). I just finished a document on how dealers can maximize their return on investment with JVTN®. One of the most important points for a dealership is the recurring revenue generated when salespeople improve their averages. Example: Say the dealership was selling …
It’s Half-Time – What’s your Plan to Finish Strong?
I’ve written 423 issues of my sales newsletter, “Selling Cars Today” and hundreds of sales blog posts, and I’ve never run out of new things we have to deal with. NOW it’s especially important to review critical skills, work habits and processes that make or break your sales every day. So how have you done …
Units and Gross are Way Up!
“I had a 50% increase in units, and I tripled my gross after your workshop.” “I have been in sales about 10 months at a great dealership, and I have a significant role model, my father, who oversees training for the Lindsay group. I started out on JVTN® which got me on the right track, …
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 …
Got Any Room To Improve?
Rate Yourself 1-10… ○ Control during the sale ○ Following our 8-Step Process ○ Finding ‘wants & needs’ for targeted demos & presentations ○ Bypassing price on the lot ○ Building value to help you close ○ Closing for a solid commitment ○ Negotiating (not dropping price) ○ Holding gross ○ Selling the ‘other’ units …
Doubled Units, Tripled Gross
I more than doubled my units & tripled my gross with Joe’s training! “When I first started selling cars, my manager told me to just go talk to people and that I’d get the hang of it. I didn’t, so a year later I reached out to The Joe Verde Group and I started with …
Closing & Negotiating…
You have to ‘close’ the sale two times, first to get a commitment to head inside, and then to get a final agreement to own it. “Working The Deal” Means Negotiating Terms And Closing To Deliver Most people in sales don’t think they negotiate, and of those who do, most don’t like it – because …
My average is 23 & doubled my gross!

15 Bikes a Month!
“I’m still doing 15 bikes a month!” “I’m still selling about 15 bikes a month and grosses are up. People don’t leave until I absolutely know they can’t buy. I close again and again, at least 8 or 10 times on every deal and turn over every rock to get them financed. I don’t give …
Go With The Flow
Almost everyone will ask a price question right away. Why? Maybe it’s just a habit, maybe they don’t know what else to ask, and maybe they’re just trying to ask, “What can I buy this for?” The ‘why’ doesn’t matter – what matters is that if you allow the conversation to start off about price …
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 …
Gross is Up!
Dealers are telling us ‘gross is up’. Why? They say it’s because people don’t want to shop several dealerships with the COVID outbreak to buy a car, so they’ll pay more. But customers always felt that way and most of them would have paid more. The difference is, most salespeople don’t follow the basics, they …
