What Happened to Managers Training Salespeople?


Did you watch Car Lot Rescue on Spike TV last night? I did - it was both entertaining and inspiring!
As one who trains Internet Sales Departments in auto dealerships, it reinforced to me that without a well-trained, motivated sales team who have a positive attitude, it doesn't matter how much money a car dealership spends on advertising or how good their business development center is at bringing prospects through the door. The customer experience when they arrive will be lacking. Lack of product knowledge, combined with a lack of sales training from management, seasoned veterans and experienced trainers leads to inferior results and people turning over.
By the way - Claude, the Sales Manager, who Tom ripped into for not training his salespeople, was actually my GSM at the first dealership I worked at, 13 years ago. We had an EXTENSIVE new hire sales training program at the time, in which Claude participated, but ownership had been instrumental in ensuring that it happened.
It wasn't so long ago that salespeople couldn't work with a customer by themselves for at least 4 weeks - until they PROVED they could be a professional, but that practice is now long gone. For those who weren't around the business then or forgot, here's how it worked:

Recapture Visitors Who Exit Your Dealership Website

by Adam Ross, Managing Director, Infinite Prospects, Inc.



Site Rebound Popunder Window

How many unique visitors does your dealership's website receive each month? 3,000? 10,000? 25,000?

The volume of shoppers who leave your website without completing a form, calling, or any other interaction - and then never return - is staggering; sometimes as high as 75%.

A percentage of those people mistakenly closed the window that they were using to browse the inventory, not really meaning to leave the site, however it's difficult for some to open a new window and quickly find the webpage or website they were just viewing. Others may have clicked on a link to a 3rd party site (like YouTube or DealerRater) that didn't open in a new window, thereby causing a site exit.

What if there were a way to re-engage 20-40% of those folks and bring them back to the website? Actually, there is!

The Importance of Positive Online Reviews To Car Dealers

by Adam Ross, Managing Director, Infinite Prospects, Inc.

How many positive reviews from customers does your dealership have on Google Plus Local, DealerRater, Cars.com and other consumer review websites? If the answer is "not many," "not enough,"or "none," then you're significantly increasing your chances of being ruled out by many potential customers and losing them to your competition.

Want to increase your dealership's sales and service opportunities by 80%? Get more positive reviews and push those negative reviews down! Statistics show that 4 in 5 consumers choose NOT to do business with a company because they read negative consumer reviews online, or because the dealer they wound up doing business with had substantially more positive reviews.
