We love the stories of the average person who gets in the automotive sales industry and makes $100,000 their first year.

The problem is these stories and these individuals are the exception, not the rule.

They end up reinforcing the "get rich quick" easy money mentality. A newbie starts and after a week or two starts questioning why he isn't making a "boatload" of money yet.

He's frustrated because he's made the exceptional, rare case his yardstick, instead of learning the truth about how much time and planning goes into building a successful automotive sales career.

He hasn't made a long term commitment to his future.

It's time to start setting goals based on reality.

So what is the truth?

It takes the $100,000 a year earner around two to three years to reach their income levels.

It took most of them six months or more to reach the goal of making $4,000 a month.

What do those statistics tell you?

Most of the highest earners had committed to a two to three year game plan. They were willing to hang tight for six months or more before they reached their first $6,000 a month.

Are you prepared to do the same, or are you still expecting to m.ake $15,000 in your first 15 days?

If you're not willing to make that type of commitment, you're better off going to the track or the casino.

If you're not ready, willing and able to make a long term commitment to your future, save yourself the frustration of setting yourself up to fail.

Ignoring the facts and burying your head in the sand, will keep you hopping from program to program. You'll never give any program the time necessary to show a real profit.

It's in your hands. You can make a long term commitment to building your future, or you can stay frustrated and eventually stop trying.

The choice is yours.

Commit or perish.
