Unfortunately the typical car salesman/woman has painted a bad rap for the good people like me. I am very honest in my dealings here at the dealership and envision a sale with every customer. I do the little things for every customer and spent many months learning from Carl Sewell, the owner of Lexus, Infiniti, Cadillac and GMC of Dallas how to make a customer for life. Sometimes people don't like how detail oriented I am and just want things now now now. When a customer askes me about a new car, I send them the invoice over the email - I see no harm in that.
I am paid in a different fashion than how other dealerships pay their internet guy, or so I have been told. I make a base pay $2,000 a month, and $100 per new car I sell, $50 per used and $25 if somebody shows up for an appointment. Most people are paid off gross profit. Trust me, my boss has kicked me a55 for selling Aveo at invoice, when after bonus, the dealership takes a $120 profit, but I do volume and make a nice living for myself.
I come from the mortgage business, where I handled millions of dollars in assets for people, their homes. I had a great reputation doing that. If I was successful handling assets, I am sure I can make a great car deal.
