Central Coast People Read This!!!

Hey, This is for everyone on the central coast of california.

I wanted to post to see if there was anyone on here who possibly had sales experience, or ever wanted to sell Mazda vehicles?
I am the internet sales manager at Valley Mazda, and I need to hire 1 or 2 people who either have sales experience or just think they would enjoy selling Mazda vehicles.
If you are interested PM me or email me at winokurwinokur@sbcglobal.net

You get good benefits, AND a discount on all parts and service you could ever want. Very competitive commissions AND Salary!!!

I normally would not do this, but I am desperate and need some "REAL" people, I can't stand the normal "car guys" that want to rip people off, so we run a straight and narrow line here. So if you think you would be good, then please please please email me or pm me.

Did I mention you get a $2500 salary. Also, $100 bonus if you stay for 60 days, and can actually sell a car. IF YOU HAVE NEVER SOLD A CAR, PM ME, I WANT YOU!

car salesmen suck.

i went in to almost every toyota dealer in socal buy a scion as a beater car last year.

hi, i want a blue scion xa with no options. i have my own pre-approved financing. how much is it?
"well, let's just see what we can work you into here"
na dood, i have money, this is what i want, how much does it cost out the door?
"let's go over to our financing dept. and see what kind of rates we can get you"

DOOD, i HAVE MONEY. GIVE ME A PRICE...

the bonehead kept trying to sell me a car, even though i was there with the intention of purchasing one. he ended up pissing me off so much, i just left. this happened at every toyo dealer i went to.

and btw, not ONE of the ******* ever gave me a price. that would have been the easiest sale they ever made.... i want that one, i'll come in tomorrow with cash, and they STILL fucked it up.

i propose salesmen be eliminated and car dealership just have $8/hr clerks to babysit when people test drive. and they need a barcode on the cars so it only takes 2 minutes at the checkout counter.

thank you, this has been another issue of "the world according to dave". you may return to whatever it was you were doing

Hey, I was a car salesman in between college and the military!!

But you're right, car salesman are the most crooked bunch of ******** on the planet. They will rip you off for every last penny they can. At least I know I did that to people when I sold cars. And used car salesmen are 1 million times worse than new car salesmen! There's more money to be made off of a used car than there is off of a new car. However, you can make a killing as a car salesman if you don't have a problem with ripping people off. You can even make a good living if you play it straight up. I would sell cars again in a heartbeat. You pretty much get paid for talking to people all day. I like that idea. Just my .02 anyway.

Well you are all screwed up. Santa Maria is not on the coast. It's part of Santa Barbara county, That's a whole other story,lol.
What's wrong with you guys? You can't sell ice to an Eskimo?
You need to take Doc's course in lateral thinking. you know think outside the box.
What the heck do you think the Eskimo's house is made of? ICE
Salesman are there to help you make up your mind. The majority of time when people go out shopping they really don't know what exactly they want. All big ticket items usually go out of peoples minds within 72hrs. and usually before that time.

Blaming sales people for doing what you expect them to do is absurd. As they say. "Don't hate the player, hate the game". You already have your mind made up about what they are going to do. So, do your homework if buying a car. Find out what dealer invoice is. Find out what the competition sells for. Then when you go in , tell them what you want and what you are willing to pay. (No Guitarjunkie don't chime in)LOL.
If they give you the run around then ask for someone else. If that does not work then ask to see the manager. If that still does not work then ask for the owner.
When all else fails. Look to see where they keep the keys hanging. Then after you get no satisfaction, drive the car that is on the showroom right thru the front window.
Remeber you guys are in control when you are buying something. Have fun when you are ready to buy big ticket items. In otherwords screw with their heads.
Oh, by the way my method that i used when i was in retail. Is just be honest. Tell them they are the one that has to be happy with what they buy, not the seller. When you start talking people out of a sale or acting like if i sell it great, if i don't oh well.
That's it boys and girls. Doc's lesson on sales is over and i am now getting of my pedestal.
Oh **** i fell of of my walker again.
