What is a Auto Broker?

The concept behind hiring DAG Auto Broker is relatively simple: you're not a professional car buyer, so why go up against a professional car seller alone? With the confusion of financing, fees, add-on, taxes and the hurried, jargon-filled nature of the dealership, it only makes sense to leave the bargaining to someone who won't be fazed by the wheeling and dealing.

Service Advisor (Salesmanship in the Service Lane)

Comment by Willie Burke Auto Broker

In this video you will find what is the role of a service advisor – service consultant at a dealership.

You will also find how they are trained to sell service to the consumer for repairs,parts or service they do not need.. The consumer is no match with Service Advisor – Service Consultant because his job comes with training and daily on the job experience.

For the most part the average consumer has no mechanical experience and never read their auto manual.

Today’s vehicle are equipped with computer which provide the consumer with what problems the vehicle is experiencing.

Question: How many consumers know what the icons in their dashboard represents?   Answer: Like of knowledge can be very  expensive. 

Quote: Lack Of Knowledge: It’s like taking a knife to a gun fight with you having the knife. Who do you think is most likely to win fight?

Confessions of a Car Dealership Service Manager  (Article)


Comment by Willie Burke Auto Broker:

My experience working at a Dealership was different. The sales staff mostly was made up of People who had experience with other companies in the line of sales - College Students – Divorces – Retirees – Ex Business

Owners – Social lights.  Dealership sale format are the same across the board. Keep the customer there until you wear them out so they will take any deal just to get out of there. Salesman has no clue what the cost of a vehicle. That is control by the GM Sales Manager – Tower Manager with whom the customer never come in contact with.

Quote: Dealership  General Managers are like the Presidents of a Bank. You will never meet them.
