Publisher's summary
Have you ever wanted to be your own boss? Are you looking for a rewarding career? Do you consider yourself a master salesman or maybe, want to become one?
Are you looking to start a business that really matters?
Car dealership owners provide a much-needed service to our communities, and this service is with a personal touch that cannot be achieved via an online-only buying experience.
Sometimes, it appears that there are more cars on the road than people already, how could you possibly make any money in this industry?
The market has never been better for individuals who are striving to begin their own used car dealership. Used car dealerships are a recession-sturdy business model.
With my 30 years of hands-on experience in the automobile dealership industry, this audiobook fulfills my need to give something back. I share all of my wisdom and time-honored advice for venturing into your dream career!
My family memories involve selling baseball cards at the local flea market and traveling to auto auctions with my father and Uncle Sam.
I was an adult at the time of my first auction, but I felt like a kid on his way to the circus. I became captivated by all of the action happening between the auctioneer and the people with the paddles.
My Uncle Sam’s voice cut through the bidding to yell the winning bid for a beat-up and rusted yet supposedly reliable pick-up truck.Three weeks and two paint jobs later, I was able to watch him sell it for a $3,500 profit.
I was immediately hooked. Ever since then, I knew I desperately wanted to sell used cars but not just for the insane profits.
I once sold a gently used Volvo in great condition to an elderly couple who were completely thrilled to have it. They wanted it for safety reasons and, of course, its record of reliability.
That made me proud.
Moments like these make it all worth it.
Car salespeople have to be therapists, educators, and extended family, all rolled into one. The entire experience can be very rewarding!
If you have a passion for cars, helping others, and making lots of money, you cannot go wrong with starting your own car dealership.
In this book, I show you everything you need to know, from start to finish, of how to run a used car dealership. You can even start from the comfort of your own home!
You’ll learn the basics like:
- What impact the car industry has
- Why you should start a used car dealership now
- How to complete market research
- What the pros and cons are of starting a used car lot
- How and where to buy your inventory
- How to navigate through the two big auction houses
- How to price your stock
- How to market yourself
Most importantly, I give you some cold, hard facts.
- What your initial startup costs will be
- How to finance
- What the legal requirements are
- What licenses you’ll need
- What are answers to some difficult issues you’ll face
- What legal issues you need to consider
- What are licensing requirements and fees for all 50 states
All of this is sprinkled with my time-tested advice and experience. I yearn to give back and mentor some up-and-coming entrepreneurs. I also include a full listing of instructions and regulations to start your own used car dealership, broken down by state in an expansive appendix.
With this all-inclusive guide, you will have all the tools you need to begin the greatest journey of your life!

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. 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.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.
