It’s good to be nice. Nice works, especially with women.
Of course whatever you do to meet the needs of women, will delight your male customers! That’s actually a fact based on a Wharton School study in partnership with WomenCertified. So in short aim for what makes her happy and you will win with everyone.

Google doesn't always get things right the first time but eventually they do listen to their user community.
One of those "Amen!" moments came recently when Google decided to allow multiple users to share Google Webmaster Tools data for a single website.
This is a BIG opportunity for car dealers who often have been told by their web hosting company that Webmaster Tools Data was off limits to their staff. It…

I talk to hundreds of automotive professionals a month and less than 25% of these passionate business professionals attend annual automotive conferences on a regular basis.
If you add in the dealership's Fixed Operations Manager, GSM, ISM, or Social Media/Content writer that percentage drops even further.
When you consider what the average monthly operations and…

All the Lot’s a Stage
All the lot’s a stage and the men and women merely the players:
There’s nothing like butchering some Shakespeare to make a point, huh? Not bad for a car-guy. In the excerpt from “As You Like It” Shakespeare breaks down the seven “roles” people play through their lives. Let’s take a look at them and compare them to the life of a car-guy.
The Infant: mewing and…

This week a wonderful thing happened. I got to see real salesmanship in action.
Here’s the set-up: I only mystery shop Ford dealers, and I almost always mystery shop for an F-150. But this week I got the wild urge to do something different. I had two stores to shop so I sent the same request to both: the female shopper clicked the “Get Info” button on a specific 2012 Ford Focus in the dealer’s inventory and, in the Comments/Questions box, wrote “Does this one have a…

It is funny how a small thing can help turn aroung your attitude and make you realize what is important. After a tough three weeks in training training and hiring auto sales people an especially great phone call came in.
I found David Proctor in an auto dealer ship in Colorado Springs. His sales manager told me that he was about done because he had been there about two weeks and had not sold a car. I ask his manager if I could have him for the training porton of the…
