  • Self-motivated with the ability to manage daily activity and follow-up.
  • Professional appearance and demeanor.
  • Comfortable working in a performance-driven and accountable sales environment.
  • Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record.

Preferred:

  • Experience utilizing an automotive dealership CRM to manage leads, customer follow-up, appointments, and sales opportunities.
  • Strong understanding and utilization of automotive dealership technology.
  • Strong CRM and follow-up habits.
  • Consistent, demonstrated sales performance.
  • Effective phone, text, email, and in-person communication skills.
  • Experience developing repeat and referral business.
  • Coachability and willingness to improve.
  • Personal accountability and a competitive mindset.
  • A history of building long-term success within an organization.
