I got into car sales 6 months ago. I hate it. I’m really stressed out. Might go back to d2d sales.
I just wanna sell. I did door door sales for 17 years. I have a hunter mentality and this is way different. I hate calling people on the phone. This dealership wants us to call people all day long and make videos to send leads. I gotta call the same person for 40 days. Most of them never answer the phone. I get bonuses from Friday to Sunday depending on how many cars I sell. We also gotta do 50 calls and send out 10 videos to leads daily. For example, if I sell 2-4 cars I’m supposed to get a bonus. If I don’t do the 50 calls per day and 10 videos per day I don’t get the bonus. Even if I’m busy with customers all day. I rarely get bonuses since I don’t complete all my stuff. I know that’s my fault but I sold the damn cars. I should get the bonus. Management is always on our asses. I get stressed out a lot. Selling d2d is not as stressful, at least to me. Thinking of going back to sell solar d2d. I won’t have anyone telling me how and when to do things. I work 12-16hr days at the dealership. I don’t have time for anything. I swear I live at the dealership. Going back to door to door would give me a lot of time. I would only work 8hrs a day, I can hit the gym and spend time with my family. It’s nice to get a check every 2 weeks but it’s not enough. I only get to see my 12 year old for 1 hour in the mornings. He’s asleep when I get back home. I don’t have time to spend with my lady or my family. This is crazy. Typing this out and now i feel like I know I’m heading back to sell d2d again.
