Today, we're talking about five steps on how to make $200,000 selling cars.
I hope you're excited to learn more about sales and cars, and specifically trying to find a way to make 200 grand. Think about that for a moment. Would that not be life-changing? Now, listen, I say 200 grand. It could be 300, it could be a buck 50. It could be $400,000. There are a lot of car people in the country making $200,000 plus per year.
They're specific on how they get it done. And we're going to be specific today. Now, let's talk about the math real quick of 200 grand, $200,000, break that down. It's going to be roughly $16,000 a month. So, if you're averaging somewhere around $550 per commission, $500 a commission, you have to sell about 30 cars. It's a car a day. What I always say and I mean it from the core, there's got to be a deal a day out there somewhere. You can't tell me that there is not one car deal a day we could put together.
Now, we all know it's not going to come from just the walk-ups, right? We can't rely on the ups. We're going to get into what we need to do to make this happen. Remember, you have ALWAYS got to be thinking about the #NextLevel
