Looking at giving a try (New England Area)
Hi everyone, I wanted to try car sales, I'm currently making 125K a year working 60-70 hours a week in the rain, snow, fringed cold weather, I drive a car hauler delivering the cars to dealers, been doing this job for 10 years now, just tired of it, usually start at 2am till about 1pm less traffic this way, I get paid by the load usually make $400 a day some days more, not hourly pay, but honestly its terrible, Financially I have my home paid off, some retirement investments and about 100k for emergency fund, So I realize I will make much less but I'm okay with that, I have good people skills, I will talk to anyone, I have 12 years in the hospitality industry as well prior to being a driver, As far as work ethic I always give 100% I'm a hustler, I like to make money and maximize my pay regardless on what I'm doing for work, I understand dealer have different pay plans or scales, average work week is between 50-60 hours, Saturday a must, what else can you tell me about car sales, one thing I always wonder was say you have 10 sales associates, and 3 potential buyers walking the lot how does it work? a rotation, first come basics ? and the rest of the time is it usually following leads phone and emails etc. ? I know its probably not the best time to make a move likes, thank you for any information you can provide.
