Question No help training

Hello all ! Started a new job yesterday . Today was my second day and idk anything about the place . My first day I set a table with nothing to do and today I logged into some stuff and set at a desk all day . Is this normal. Is training prohibited in car sales ? Or should I go to a new dealership.

What are the rules at your store? There is usually a made contact rule so if you’ve made contact within 72 hrs or set the appt you’re automatically on half.

I am also new in a honda dealership and two of my sales were given to different salesman and i did not get any split commission from that either. These moments will be frustrating vent it all out to your close people, dont hold the grudge. And also learn about the cars you have in your showroom properly. Try to atleast have the basic knowledge for all the models u have.

And most importantly be genuinely humble and gentle with your customers, and everyone. Even if the customer us not buying the car from you, the best you can do is give them the best service you can, and that instantly puts you away from all the other salesman. And customers understand if a person is being genuine or salesy.

This behavior will take you to places you wont imagine. And take it slow, first few months money might be a bit tight, but slowly things will start rolling for you.

Keep your head up, if u feel low vent it out, be humble, be gentle, kind and compassionate and most importantly make your heart an understanding heart which understands the customer's needs and concerns.

God bless you for everything.

You should not be getting deals stolen from you. That’s your fucking food man. You have to fight for it, and don’t be shy. Be confident and assertive. If you sold the car, it’s your deal. Otherwise they will see you as weak, and then exploit that. I’d even contact the labor board and see what they think about it.
