today was my last day as a saleman. apparently i dont have what it takes to sell cars. i gave it a shot. i treated each customer with respect and honesty but alot of so called buyers did not reciprocate the same. i took it personally and that is not good for anyone in sales. the good news is that i will still be working @ toyota of concord. i have switched over to the service side. i will be pretty much doing the grunt work until i learn to be a service advisor. i will still play an active part in trying to get better meets and events planned. i invite everyone to come see me, even on superbowl sunday(which is our next meet)hint,hint

woohoo....good news man. Glad to hear you got to do what you wanted.

good luck witht the new job...havn't geard from you in a while, hit me up when your coming this way

having been in sales for over 20yrs..it is tough and buyers are liars.....funny they say that about salespeople.....glad to hear though your excited about the change

congrats :clap: so does that mean you are going to Drop Jaw with us

yeah in his XA...LOL

made it to work this am only to be told "go home" they closed the dealership for the day due to weather. my wife put my truck in the ditch on her way to work but i was able to get it out without any dmg. rite now the xa belongs to another owner. the preowned mgr wanted me to pick out another car so that one would sell. i may end up getting a new one. dont know about wct yet since they dont have my schedule worked out. they were supposed to do that today. oh well. at lest i got a day off to spend with my family.

Terry I understand what you mean with the customers. hey I learned I am not a car salesman either and thats not such a bad thing after all. But yeah I made it to work to one of only 13 thats about 20% of the office. They then said the office was closed. so I finished up some stuff and made it home safe with of course stopping for the normal "bread and milk" lol

I got all the bread and milk I could fit the box last night

yum, yum. milk sandwiches

i will be pretty much doing the grunt work until i learn to be a service advisor.

Now, now.....Grunt is such an UGLY word :rofl:

ur absolutely right! i didnt mean to offend true grunts!!! i will have to work my way up just like they did!

starting sometime in june i will be the new Service Appointment Coodinator. this is a fairly new position and i was told that as organized (aka"anal") as i am and my car knowledge that i should fit in rite to this job. once i get things going and refine our process, ill get into being an asst service mgr. but that will be awhile. so, if anybody calls us for a service appointment, please dont cuss me if i accidently cut you off, im new to the job.hahahahahaha
