Clients like these have made my long and illustrious career in automotive sales truly rewarding. Over the years, so many loyal customers have also become friends, relying on me for all of their vehicle purchases—and sometimes their vehicle sales—from the mid-90’s to today. This particular client in the review below hugged me as she left, and whispered in my ear, "YOU are the reason we keep coming back here. Thank you so much!" Another long-term client once said, "If you ever stopped selling cars, I guess we would just have to keep the vehicles we currently have indefinitely!" Building these strong relationships over hundreds of transactions, both big and small, has been incredibly heartwarming. I am so proud of the massive client base I've built here from scratch all on my own. When I started, I wasn't well-suited for a sales role at all, timidly peeking out from behind my long bangs and nervously greeting customers with a limp handshake and a tight squeak of a voice. Can you imagine??? Oiy! This occupation has forced me way out of my comfort zone which did me a world of good both personally and professionally. In the spring of 1994 I did not anticipate this “summer gig” between the spring and fall sessions of University would lead me down an entirely different path. (I don’t think any of my clients need to worry though, when I eventually do retire from sales, I assume the Birchwood Group wouldn’t mind me wandering back in occasionally with a car deal for them!) haha! #automotive #career #relationships #work #womenatwork

Want to become automotive sales advisor? Consider these before applying. 1. Stock availability (no stock equals to no income) 2. Management's reliability (more often than not, they decide your car allocation--hence point number 1) 3. Brand (potential customers most of the time are bias toward certain brands) 4. Payment (find out how long it takes for commission payout--some take months so be prepared financially) 5. Commission structure (best to find out early on so that you can forecast your income) 6. Location (some cars--EVs for example--may not have a strong presence in less-developed areas so it is harder to generate sales) 7. Working hours (some require full time commitment, some don't. Find what suits you best) What do you think? Anymore factors you would consider? #automotive #sales #salesadvisor #cars #career #jobs

😳What if I told you automotive sales is not that complicated? You don't need a ton of spreadsheets📈 or flashy programs. You need to build a TEAM going in the same direction. The reports serve their purpose, but without a team that is going the same direction, your reports or flashy programs will serve no purpose but to keep placing blame. Take the time in 2025 to research quality training and invest in your TEAM this year. #NotAGuru #SalesTraining
