How long does it take to be successful in car sales?

Category: Marketing & Sales

MJMJ


If you were just getting into the business and learning it from the ground up, with very little knowledge of cars and trucks, but is willing to learn, how long will it take for me to say make 50,000 a year, I am sure it is doubtful the first year. Thanks

Making good money in car sales requires long hours and referrals and repeat business from satisfied customers. Selling a car is just the start. You have to have a personality that all kinds of people relate to and patience.Start in a small dealership where they have more time to teach you and every other salesperson isn't trying to stab you in the back. In huge dealerships, every month the lowest sales people are cut.
