"''Just how practical is the book? Beyond interesting, will it save me money?'' you might be thinking.

Congrats to Five Star Publications author Ray Lopez - who gave guidance to car shoppers on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer in the broadcast that aired on 11/16/2011. Video: Used Car Tactics: Former Salesman Speaks Out How do you get a car that''s safe, yet something for a great deal? USA Today quotes Ray Lopez, Five Star Publications'' author of Inside the Minds of Car Dealers as saying "buyers of the priciest luxury cars want to have all that''s available. But for more mainstream cars, expensive safety features are a very hard sell." Read the article & Ray''s book to shop smarter for your next car. USA Today Next time I step onto a dealer''s lot, I''m going armed with insider information. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers is a new book written by Ray Lopez, a former car salesman with thirty years of experience in numerous dealerships. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers is, as the title suggests, a 118-page insight into the mind of a car salesman, and contains engagingly-written explanations of what goes on behind the curtain at a car dealer, so to speak. Inside the Minds of Car Dealers offers tips on how to find a good dealer before you even leave the house, explains the head games salesmen play and how they can spot a so-called "auto expert" a mile away-and take him or her for even more money than they will the average consumer. Reading Inside the Minds of Car Dealers, I saw exactly what was going on when I bought my Miata...and my Saab...and my Escort. This book explained what the dealer was doing in each case-and how I was getting taken for every last cent each time! Lopez'' writing style is a bit heavy-handed at times, but the information contained in this volume is vital, valuable stuff that''ll make your next car buying experience a great deal less stressful. It''s $15.95 well spent. Christopher Jackson Elepent Automotive Reviews What makes someone sell you a clunker? "Inside the minds of Car Dealers: How to Buy Your Next Car without Fear" is a guide for readers who seek a psychological edge in dealing with the shifty con artists who go by the more politically correct title of car dealers. Written by a man who has played the devil, he offers much in the way of trying to decipher the thoughts on both sides of the deal and does well in arming his readers in how to get the best deal they can and avoid the toxic ones. "Inside the Minds of Car Dealers" is a must for anyone considering purchasing a new vehicle in the near future. Midwest Book Review Library Bookwatch December 2009 5 out of 5 stars A PROFESSIONAL, INFORMATIVE AND USEFUL GUIDE! In 2003, I walked into a Chevrolet showroom to purchase a new car for my daughter. As I look back now, I remember being there from opening to closing. After signing the contract and going through with the deal, I realized that I wasn''t prepared, and I could have saved a lot of money. Since that sale, I''ve read many books and did some research on how to buy a new car, or used car, and what we should know about trading in your car. In comparison to THE CAR BUYER''S BIBLE, HOW TO BUY A CAR, and BUYING A CAR FOR DUMMIES, I found "INSIDE THE MINDS OF CAR DEALERS" to be the most informative guide on this subject. If you want expert advice on buying a car, then it would be logical to obtain information from someone who spent thirty years as a car salesman, who served an estimated 2,800 customers per year. Ray Lopez worked for many top-notch leading dealerships such as Chrysler, Cadillac, and Nissan. Through the experience of his thirty year career, knowledge, and expertise, the author can educate the public on how to be a wise car buyer. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is contemplating on buying a car, or trading in your used car. The author provides excellent information that is extremely helpful in purchasing a car, or trading one in. This book is easy to read and understand, many tips are provided on how to obtain the best deal, and many crucial factors are included as to what to do, and what not to do. Did you ever go to a showroom, and buy a car that you didn''t want? Were you ever told by a salesman that you can afford to buy their car? Were you ever disrespected, or mistreated by a car salesman? Were you ever lured into a factory discount? Ever gone for a test drive, but told you can''t drive it off the lot due to insurance liability? Ray Lopez can answer these questions and many more, while showing you every trick of the trade that can be used against you, through manipulative schemes. The author reveals the biggest secrets in the car buying industry in this unique, professionally written, informative guide. "INSIDE THE MINDS OF CAR DEALERS" is something you may want to read again-and-again, before walking into that showroom as a potential buyer. You will indeed be prepared, and informed on how to become a composed car buyer. Ray Lopez encourages you to do research, includes resources of what to be aware of, and how to detect signs of being taken advantage of. By Geraldine Ahearn "Author Geri Ahearn" October 5, 2009 (Phoenix, AZ) 5.0 out of 5 stars Very Impressive Amazon Verified Purchase. I bought the book because I wanted to find out the right way to buy a car. I''m going to be ready for a new one in a few months. So I might as well start now on learning all I can about car salesmen. I can''t trust them. My goal was to buy one, read it, then buy another, and so on, as long as they had high recommendations and were reasonably priced. I figured I''d spend about $75 on 5 books. By then I could probably learn everything about how they always end up screwing you. And if it cost me $75 but saved me $1000 or more, it would be a worthwhile investment. I saw this book and I liked the title so I thought, why not? I''ll take a chance. I''m really glad I did. Inside The Minds Of Car Dealers has everything you''ll ever need to know on how to get a really good deal. There was stuff in it that I never even dreamed of that goes at the dealership. And it''s not just with the salesman. It''s with the sales manager, the way the showroom is laid out and even the dealership''s ads for salesmen! Who would''ve ever thought to start researching there first? But it does make sense. This book explains why you never want to go on the lot with an attitude like you know how to deal. I just found out why my friend ended up paying more for his Focus than I did a couple years ago. We bought ours a few days apart. He told them he knew the exact price they paid for the car and he wouldn''t pay anything over that. He ended up paying $1378 more than me. And the reason is in this book. Too bad for him the book wasn''t available back then. There''s so much great information in it and it''s so easy to read too. None of the sales lingo. Just plain English. And it uncovers even more than you''d ever expect. I''m going to read it a few more times before I get my new car. And I recommend to everyone to buy Inside The Minds Of Car Dealers. It will save you money and a lot of time. And like the title says, you can Buy Your Next Car Without Fear. By Radio Guy November 14, 2009 (Los Angeles)
Book Synopsis The Art and Science of Running a Car Dealership by : Max Zanan
Download or read book The Art and Science of Running a Car Dealership written by Max Zanan and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the pocket guide I wish I had when I first became a general manager of a Mitsubishi dealership in New York. Honestly, I am not the brightest star in the sky and made every mistake anyone could've possibly made. Unfortunately, I see dealer principals/general managers/general sales managers making the same mistakes today. The only difference is the time and consequences of these mistakes. I got my first GM gig in 2004. That was in the beginning days of the Internet, before millennials joined the workforce, and way before any viable disrupters entered the market space. It was a lot easier to get away with mistakes then. I don't think you could get away with making the same mistakes now. The stakes are too high. Automotive retail profit margins are tiny. According to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), automotive net profit margin as of March 31, 2019 was merely 1.38 percent. As a result, every misstep makes it harder to stay in business.The car business desperately needs better leadership skills, understanding of social media, inventory management, fixed operations, and so much more. There is no educational barrier to the entry into car business, and there are only a handful of universities offering a major in car dealership general management, such as Liberty and Keiser. On top of that, only a tiny percentage of dealer principals and general managers attend the National Automobile Dealer Association University. That means that a vast majority of general managers receive training on the job, even if we took business-related classes in college. The auto business is a different animal. General information will only carry you so far. That is exactly why general managers make the same mistakes year after year. My goal is to break this vicious cycle and provide as much information as possible to ensure that automotive retail survives the disruptions we are witnessing today. We need to be ready for the next generation of car buyers, people who are more computer savvy and not afraid to search for better deals. According to surveys, 80 percent of millennials plan to buy a vehicle in the next five years. In fact, millennials worldwide will buy about 40 percent of all vehicles in the next decade. At the same time, they spend an average of 17 hours on line before going to a dealership.Are you ready for them?

Download or read book Effective Car Dealer written by Max Zanan and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my fourth book on the auto industry, and I have written it because this business is complicated, sophisticated, and ever-changing. Automotive retail is changing slowly, and one of the main reasons for that are the franchise laws. I want to urge you to operate as though franchise laws don't exist to protect you. Carvana is not going anywhere and neither is Amazon. At some point they will join forces. Also, OEM's such as Tesla, Rivian, and many more are going to go directly to the consumer, bypassing the dealer network altogether. At the end of the day, awesome customer service, whether in sales, service, or parts, will keep your customers coming back for more. Poor service and a cumbersome sales experience will drive them elsewhere-Carvana, CarMax, Tesla, Jiffy Lube, Firestone, Good Year, Valvoline, NAPA Parts, Pep Boys, etc.COVID-19 is already having a profound effect on consumer behavior and the way in which we buy and service cars. I predict that there will be two types of dealers after this pandemic abates-the first will change their business operations, adopting frictionless digital and showroom retail; the second will hope that things go back to normal and that nothing needs to change. Unfortunately, the second type of dealer will be out of business. It is ultimately your choice whether to accept change. Consumers will continue to purchase cars. The only question is: Will they will be buying from you?

Download or read book DEALING | the Incredible Journey of an African American Car Dealer written by Kevin Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes you on my journey of becoming a car dealer. It offers a bird's-eye view of the automobile industry. It evaluates the conditions under which I and many other Black car dealers operate in order to determine why so many of us failed. In 2005 there were 751 new car franchise-rooftops1 owned by African Americans. As of December 2017, that number declined drastically to 270, out of a total of 19,284 American new car franchise-rooftops. In 2005, black car dealers accumulated billions of dollars in wealth; unfortunately, they lost most of it when the recession ended in 2009. Yet African Americans continue to purchase new cars in record numbers. African Americans purchased 1,105,931 new cars in 2015, with gross revenue of $35,357,792,000, most of which went to white car dealers. With an annual growth rate of 9.4%, it's estimated that African Americans will purchase over 1.5 Million New Cars in 2020, with gross reveue surpassing $50 Billion!With African Americans owning only 1.4% of car dealerships nationwide, can we afford to give $50 Billion dollars of our hard-earned income every freaking year to folks who don't look like us? $50 Billion dollars circulating within the African American community can go a long way and will do wonders for African Americans! It will create jobs with fair incomes and will allow Blacks to purchase houses that appreciate in value instead of simply buying cars that depreciate. Ultimately, it will allow Blacks to build wealth. After all, it's our damn money! In September of 1992, at the age of 36, after a 10-year career as a Business Consultant for Ford Motor Company and a Ford Dealer Trainee, I joined the ranks of the Black car dealers in America and became the proud owner of a Lincoln Mercury franchise in St. Louis, Missouri. Five years later, like the majority of Black car dealers, I lost my franchise.Dealing chronicles the emotional highs and lows I experienced both before and after becoming a Black car dealer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automotive retail is at crossroads--either it gets better or becomes extinct.

It is a must read for dealer principals, dealership employees, and vendors that service car dealers.
Download or read book Customers for Life written by Carl Sewell and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this completely revised and updated edition of the customer service classic, Carl Sewell enhances his time-tested advice with fresh ideas and new examples and explains how the groundbreaking “Ten Commandments of Customer Service” apply to today’s world. Drawing on his incredible success in transforming his Dallas Cadillac dealership into the second largest in America, Carl Sewell revealed the secret of getting customers to return again and again in the original Customers for Life. A lively, down-to-earth narrative, it set the standard for customer service excellence and became a perennial bestseller. Building on that solid foundation, this expanded edition features five completely new chapters, as well as significant additions to the original material, based on the lessons Sewell has learned over the last ten years. Sewell focuses on the expectations and demands of contemporary consumers and employees, showing that businesses can remain committed to quality service in the fast-paced new millennium by sticking to his time-proven approach: Figure out what customers want and make sure they get it. His “Ten Commandants” provide the essential guidelines, including: • Underpromise, overdeliver: Never disappoint your customers by charging them more than they planned. Always beat your estimate or throw in an extra service free of charge. • No complaints? Something’s wrong: If you never ask your customers what else they want, how are you going to give it to them? • Measure everything: Telling your employees to do their best won’t work if you don’t know how they can improve.

Book excerpt: Simply Selling More Cars Won’t Be Enough: Revolutionizing the Retail Automotive Industry Dale Pollak believes that the car business—and the dealers who make their living in it—are in more trouble than anyone cares to admit. After four decades and three best-selling books, Pollak has witnessed the trials and triumphs of the retail automotive industry from a vantage point that few get. While car dealers are making good money, he warns that the industry is at a critical turning point, with too few paying attention to how inefficiency and lack of transparency are sapping the industry’s true potential. Amid the ever-faster confluence of technology, the Internet, and changing consumer preferences, the future prosperity of the industry is far from secure. Like I See It offers practical solutions, such as making the sales process more customer-focused and digitally driven to encourage sales, managing new and used inventory to mitigate margin compression, and ending factory bonus checks. It spurs much-needed conversations and sets guideposts that help dealers, OEMs, and solution providers improve how they do business. It also shows dealers how to stay relevant, evolve to keep up with the changing times, and deal with issues like high personnel turnover and the coming disruption of ride-sharing, self-driving cars, and Millennials who don’t want (or can’t afford) to own a car. Pollak believes that success will come to dealers who recognize that each customer engagement is a chance to make a positive impact and create a bond. He offers a collectively minded approach that will help build a better, more profitable, and prosperous retail automotive industry for tomorrow.

Book excerpt: How to Start, Run and Grow a Used Car Dealership on a Budget Start Part-Time or Full-Time Right from Home-Start Your Own Used Car Business It is not hard to become a used car dealer even if you are on a tight budget. As far as the income potential is concern, it is higher than most other side gigs you will find. Just imagine this, you buy a 6 years old Toyota Camry with 87K miles for $4,500, you bring it home, clean it up, fix few minor scratches, wash it wax it, then put it up for sale on Craigslist for $7100. In the first three days you get a few calls, and after 4 test drives, you sell it for $6,600. Let's see how much you made from this sale. You paid $4,400 + you spend $350 on fixing minor issues, so your total cost was $4,750, but you sold it for $6,600, so your net profit from this sale is $6,600-$4,750 = $1,850 Not bad for few hours of work. You see if you buy the right type of cars and price them right, there is no reason you can't sell 2-3 cars a month and make a handsome extra income each month. I have a friend, who has a small insurance business. He has been selling cars on the side for last 25 years, and he told me just by selling 2-3 cars a month, he was able to pay for college for all his three kids. On the other hand, if you want to grow, then start small but reinvest the profit you make from selling each car back into the business and soon you will see, you are growing at a fast and steady pace, but you have to be focused and dedicated.

Book Synopsis THE ROAD TO THE DEAL by : James Matthews
Download or read book THE ROAD TO THE DEAL written by James Matthews and published by Armada Data Corporation dba CarCostCanada. This book was released on 2021-01-11 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art of new vehicle buying is as old as... well, as old as the very first automobiles offered for retail sale. Just as cars and trucks have evolved immeasurably from those primitive beginnings, so have customer buying strategies AND the many ways dealer salespeople have employed to counter them. For a long time, the advantage was firmly on the dealer's side because the intricacies of pricing were, for the most part, a mystery to the average new car buyer. Those days are over, thanks to the advent of the internet and the so-called “information highway”. Successfully navigating that highway, however, is a skill roughly akin to driving on a real highway: not everyone can do it but almost anyone can learn how! This book aims to impart those skills, compiled and distilled from the cumulative knowledge and experience(s) of auto industry professionals, dealership salespeople and managers, and everyday car & truck buyers just like you.
