@@Smartswipe256 let's put it thos way my 4tu month there I had top sales for like 2 weeks in a row. Pay still wasn't great. I had to find more steady paying job. Golf courses is where it's at. Legit.
@@Smartswipe256 10 other fit specialists came and went while I was there in forst 2 months. They will let you go without hesitation. No value in their team.... well speaking for the store I was at.
Mike M Statistically, probably not. The local dealerships by me have very high turn over rates. Local HD dealers near me (3) let 60 sales staff go over the course of 2 months.
I thought about going into motorcycle sales, then I saw all the turnover rates and bitter current and former employees reviews on glass door. I'm a disabled motorcyclist, consider myself lucky to ride and want others to experience riding.
Bredaxe that’s great you’re thinking of getting into the business. You’re correct about high turnover rates but typically it’s in dealerships (majority) that are poorly managed. There are many dealerships out there that take care of their employees with a low turnover rate. Choose carefully and interview the dealer just as they interview you.
Tommy Ady the dealership I work at has a new sales manager and he gives us great discounted prices for our customers. So we don’t make as much money per unit as the old sales manager would (he wouldn’t sell anything unless we made 30% on it.) but we sell 4 times the amount of units, and our customers love us and they send all their friends and family to us.
Been selling harleys for 14 days now and sold 4 so far!! Thanks Tommy

Am heading for interview on Monday. I hope the best so that I implement this sales strategy
Thanks! I just took a position at my local Harley-Davidson dealer and hope to make it a career.

We need people like you in the industry sir!

Most definitely lots of poorly managed dealerships!
Thanks
You're welcome!!
