Default Just got a new job...

At RK Buick/Subaru. I just finished up my training friday and i hit the floor last saturday. I never thought i would have become a salesman, but it was something that i wanted to try out(and its mainly a summer job til i got back to college). But its nice to be able to sell subarus and talk about them to customers all day long. And i actually just sold my first car yesterday, an 05 Forester . And since RK is a fairly large company, i can also sell chevy's, toyota, used trucks and cars. If any of you guys need parts or service at all, feel free to let me know and ill see what i can do.

Thats interesting being that I hate salesman. No offense towards you but i have had my share of bad experiance's with salesman.I have heard storys etc but goodluck to you.

its based on how much the vehicle is sold for. Between invoice and the selling price is the gross and we get a ceratin percantage of that.

I've always hated salesmen as well, but I've also always wanted to try it out. It would be fun being around cars and talking cars all day.

congrats!

selling cars is the hardest business to get out of man. your gonna have a good month and make like 6 grand and never want to stop. but as a job... it sucks. its a fuck load harder than anyone thinks.

My stepdad worked at Bowditch Ford for a little while. Well, he went through training and did one day on the lot and quit. He said he just couldn't lie to people and Bowditch basically trained him to lie lie lie.

Maybe this has changed, and I am sure not all dealerships are that bad. Also, this was back in the late 80's/early 90's.

I think it would be interesting to have a salesman job as well, but I don't think I would be very good *lol*

Good luck with the job man!
