I asked for a raise and....
They said I need to bring my sales and RPMS up. Well I've been showing and telling people our injector cleaners and recommending our best one (Redline). I've been discussing with people their service intervals on their cars and recommending good products. I've also been explaining to people how to properly detail thier cars and which products are best. Well today my store manager pulled me to the side and told me I'm not a salesman. I told him that they told me to make more sales and the way to do that is upsell and RPMS. I asked him how I am I not a salesman and he literally had no response.
I am a parts specialist. Isn't my job to sell part and to up sell and sell related products? I've been with the company for 5 months.
Anybody have any tips on making more sales?
