Do you feel pressure to make sales and meet your quotas at the end of months and/quarters?

Do you work 6 days a week, 12 hours a day or do you pretty much just work when you want?

Do you have a car allowance or a per diem? Does your dealership pay for your wardrobe?


I knew a guy that sold cars for a while and he worked on a deal for like two weeks and ended up selling the car and got a commission check for $100.

You must be new here.

This is the OT, which stands for Off Topic.

We discuss various things, that are off topic.

You are abviously new to this industry.

Yes, I sling wheels.

I work when I want for what I want. Biut I’m a hussla so I do work 6/12s.

If you work for a good dealer shop, you can get a sweet company ride.

No money in used used rides. Sell preliminary new.

If your in the Sales department, your always involved in sales. NC Sales , UC Sales, Sales Manager, General Sales Manager or the General Manager. Everyone of these positions are “ SALES “ not part of fixed operations. i.e. Parts & Service...body shop if the dealership has one.

I have been with a bunch of plant guys that say the same thing. They sacrifice their personal life to pay for it.
