[QUOTE="Red Turtle, post: 10299391, member: 17647"] [B][U]Sell any cars? I hit the lot as gas prices soared and then the credit crunch hit. As a "green pea" I sold three or four cars a month — and some of those were shared deals. With $2,000 a month salary and $200 per deal minimum commissions, I could just barely pay my bills.[/U][/B] This is from one of your articles, and is generally the case with a large part of your salesforce. Funny thing is that a lot of dealers do not offer any type of salary. So if they put too much in the car, can't sell it, take it to the auction and lose money should they go back to the owner for the difference? I was the used car manager for a top 40 store (at the time) in the Nation, and dealt with trades all day. I can tell you that even family was never happy with their trade value. Again, nobody is forcing you to trade. If you are not happy with the trade value, then go sell it. As far as screwing people out of money, that is your perception. Most of your new car sales are mini's and used cars is where you actually can make a check. I have been out of the business for two years and still get Christmas cards from my old customers. I like Beefcake, took very good care of my customers and worked at a store with a great reputation. [/QUOTE]
