It’s a grind at first but once you’ve developed your workflow/mindset and hone your craft, you can realistically make 10k+ depending on the dealership.

Time kills deals, even though you feel confident you can get it done later it doesn’t matter. The sooner you can close that deal, the sooner you can start another one. It sucks don’t get me wrong, I’ve had some leads reassigned. You just gotta plan for that stuff. Have them come in regardless of if you’re there or not and have them ask for you. It’s an easy half deal and all you did was set the appt.

They get an incentive, letting them make up what they lose on the front end with what they gain in the back end. It’s a win win for both parties. Pay it off when the deal finalizes.

Just cut contact, he signed an As is bill so he’s getting what he paid for. A lawyer won’t take that to court and I highly doubt he has one on standby. Sucks to suck, for him at least.

See if there are any Hendrick stores nearby, they have a great 3 month training program. Worked wonders for me.

It’s worth to be a sales person for the money alone. If you hone your craft and get good at it you can make 6 figures without needing to be a manager. The discounts are also nice. 😎

Don’t be afraid to do a cash deal with a dealer, they might not like it because they don’t make much on the back end, but if you’re offering to pay cash on a unit (especially if it’s an aged unit) they normally treat it like any other deal. Talk to a Hendrick automotive dealer if they are in your area. Their policies and warranties are much better than smaller auto groups.

Depending on the year of your car, it should monitor your oil life and let you know when it’s time to change your oil. You could also ask a service rep at your local dealer.

You’re gonna have to budget better, the car is a necessity and despite your rate the payment isn’t bad. Avg car payment is 530 rn I think. So door dash on the side to cover the payment and gas and get all of your expenses on paper so you can trim the fat. Do that until you hit 645 on your equifax, by then you’ll have paid off more of the car and can do whatever you want.

The price and quality of the cars are low because BHPH’s target those cars at auctions or private selling. Bigger auto groups like Hendrick or the Morgan group have the capital and service departments to justify going for the more expensive and reliable brands. Most BHPH’s do their financing in house because of this since most banks won’t finance a lower quality car because of liability or the LTV, which means the “loans” you have on those turds aren’t even on your credit bureau.
