Hi

Im thinking of new job....car salesman . Not a used car dealers but major company from Japan.

Basic payment is low but commission pay is high.

My knowledge about cars is okay.

Just need to know what are good & bad , high & low in this job. What special skill should I have?

Thank you

For me... I'll start with basic car knowledge...
1) Refer Wikipedia for car history of any particular make...
2) Learn about car sales locally and globally...
3) Learn about other rival car makes/ competitor and do comparison references
Good luck...

Know your stuff and practice good ethics. Learn to be able to make valid comparisons between your products and your rivals without belittling them.

Most important thing is not to bullsh*t customers. Many visitors walk into showroom knowing their stuff very well, and if you try to bluff them they might either sound you on the spot, or talk about you in forums like this one. Neither of these are the best for your health.

It's not difficult to get a job as a car salesman if you knock at the right doors. I was also offered a job as a car salesman with a reputable Japanese brand when I was fresh out of uni job hunting.
