Started with zero experience…
“Joe, how many units can someone realistically sell in today’s market?” When I got out of the Army, I started selling cars with zero experience. My first 5 years as an 8 car guy, I never met and rarely heard of anyone selling more than 12 or 15. If we did hear about someone selling …

We either have what they want or we don’t
Wouldn’t it be great if we actually could prequalify people real quick, take shortcuts, and still sell more units!

You’ve got 2 ways to sell more – only 1 is permanent
Example: A 10 car salesperson works all the extra hours they can and sells 13 the 1st month, and 12 the 2nd month. The 3rd month, they sell 8. Why? Because they picked a plan that totally relies on a limited supply of effort, instead of setting a goal and creating a plan to improve …

Price or Value
You will either build value or you’ll get stuck on price. It’s important to separate the transaction (the money part) from the value of owning it. Transactions & Negotiation should take place inside with a commitment. When I say don’t talk ‘price’ on the lot, I’m referring to all of these: Price, discounts, trade, payoff, …
It’s time to turn ‘Pro’!
What you know has gotten you to where you are now. To improve, you need to learn even more. At 30 years old, most of us reach our peak, and 90% just keep doing what they’re doing and keep getting what they’re getting now, or less. Trying to get to $100,000+ a year will take …

Find What They Want & What They Need
First, let’s talk about ‘why’ you want to find their wants & needs. Does ‘I want to look at’ mean they want to buy one? A well-dressed, 40ish guy came in, asked to see the used Corvette. I said, “Jump in,” burned some rubber, slid around a corner, got back and said, “What do you …
