I'm not sure I'd be happy working the floor, but I'm confident that I could make appointments and get fair prospects in the door and excited about their visit. Closing would be a personal strength anytime soon.
It sounds like every dealership is a little (or a lot) different. And perhaps my experience would scare (OK, maybe a little) a Internet Manager who might not be doing as much as they could to utilize the Web, video, social media and other online channels to generate prospects and sales. I'm not trying to be arrogant, but my world has always been focused on finding the prospect and hoping that sales doesn't screw it up. And the last five years has been a tough industry to attract (for various reasons.) At least people need vehicles -- hooray!
I'm learning a lot here, and getting up to speed with the industry.
