Default would any of you...

would anyone take a job at a dealership in sales? i'm currently being offered one. i'm not exactly secure with the idea of being a 'salesman' who works based on his sales performance rather than knowledge of product and ability to explain to customers in detail etc. they're also hiring for title clerk and i sit and do paperwork all day now. i was kinda giving it thought, but didn't know what pay would be like in that position. probably a little more secure...that's for sure. and the day would go a lot faster most likely. any feedback would be appreciated... oh yeah, it's f'n snowing here like shit right now! so whack! lata

I'm sure he sells a lot. I guess your best bet would be the read up on all the cars you got and the more information you know about them, the better prepared you will be when a customer has a question.

When I talk to him, I'll ask him if he has any tips for people considering to be car salesmen. I'll let you know.

Oh I see. Well since bikes are 1/2 the price of cars in general, I guess my example kinda sucks.

I guess it all depends on how good you are at selling. Have you done sales before as a profession? I'm sure the more practice you have, the better you will be. My boy has been selling cars since he was 18.
