Advertise a lot.  \n\nHowever, the one thing that turns me off when going to buy a car is when there are salesmen hovering at the door!!  They are like vultures waiting for their next prey.  I have driven past auto lots where I've seen them standing there, just waiting!

Where are you located (city/state)?  That would help direct you to someone who could help you find a buyer.

Hello,\n\nThank you for considering me for your position as used car sales manager.  I have lots of experience lying to people and taking advantage of people by talking very fast.  I am good at pressure techniques and know when to turn on the heat.  I am familiar with rolling back odometers and power booking.  I know how to cover up flaws in lemons.  I know where to get lots of flood damaged cars cheap from the New Orleans area.  I am your person for the job.  \n\nHire me or else, you have five minutes to decide.\n\nSincerely,\n\nYou\n\nTry this approach, I think it will work.

Yes it is and they have every right to have it towed.  It is not a used car lot....and have no license to allow it.  What if everyone did that?\nIf you are just visiting the store...that is another matter, you are a customer. merely using a car you wish to sell.

Ok, do you have access to the INTERNET? Or a LIBRARY? Try GOOGLE, or a NEWSPAPER, or ask a county clerk when they hold their auctions. E-BAY has many options.\n Or you can just drive around your town, and look for houses with white papers taped to the front door, or windows saying something like "STAY OUT!". DON'T go in, but WRITE down the information, and CALL on the phone to get more info. Use a little imagination, tow companies sell impounded cars, or those insidious title loan outfits,(I bet they have a bunch of cars they want to get rid of).

Try a few of these methods and watch your sales soar! \n1.   Launch a Web site. Web sites provide your company with worldwide exposure and give your customers convenient access to your services and products.  \n  \n2.   Host a grand opening or open house. Invite local business owners and residents from surrounding neighborhoods. Provide refreshments, drawings for door prizes, free merchandise samples, and have plenty of business cards and company brochures on hand.  \n  \n3.   Monitor the quality of your services and products constantly. Satisfied customers who spread the word about your business are the best source of new customers. Pay attention to pricing, customer service, product availability and prompt delivery.  \n  \n4.   Explore various types of traditional advertising methods such as classified ads, yellow page ads, television and radio spots, and display ads in magazines and on other Web sites. Go with what meets your budget and best reaches your target group.  \n  \n5.   Support a local charity by sponsoring a fundraising event such as a food drive, toy drive or walkathon. Arrange for a formal presentation of your donation with cameras at the ready and try to get a local newspaper to publish the photograph.  \n  \n6.   Distribute fliers and business cards door to door, place them under car windshield wipers and tack them to local apartment, college and community center bulletin boards.  \n  \n7.   Maintain a visible presence within your industry. Participate in trade shows, attend community events and offer to speak on your area of expertise at seminars.

most car sales people know little about cars. the information, specs, how they drive all comes later. what you need is the sales ability. remember they're car salesman, they want to be impressed and swept off their feet. so if you get an interview, do that. you have a gift for sales then show it. They know car info is just that. you can read the brochures and such and learn what you need to know about a particular model. if you have the sales exp, show them you can step up and sell. you can start by selling yourself to them.

Do you have any friend that would help you out with a carwash?  If you have a carwash, make up a short letter about what you are trying to do and pass that out to people when they park their car for the carwash.  Then collect the money afterwords and you may get more if people support what you are trying to do.\n\nWriting letters to business is a good idea also.\n\nYou could also hold a cardboard sign at the nearest stoplight and beg.   Write something like "Model in Need of Cash".  Then again, that may not be a hot idea.

Honda in Alexandria near Landmark Mall in Virginia puts their cars on the top level of the parking lot of the Landmark Mall. The mall is a ghost town anyway and not too many people frequent it, but they have a huge parking lot that is never filled, even during Christmas. \n\nOne way would be to find out businesses or parking lot services that need to be filled but can never get the capacity they need to fill their parking lots. This approach may not be easy depending on where you are, but just try to be patient and check out these places in your area and find out whether they can fill their parking lots on their own. You said you tried it, but keep looking even outside your own county.\n\nHire a real estate agent to help you find commercial areas that you can lease for your parking lot. Sometimes it is better to get the help of professionals.

I think u have the right attitude, not being too pushy when it comes to closing the sale.\nHowever, asking for a close is a salesmans' right!! After having given all the inputs for the customer to decide. (The close is around, after u having answered the customers worries- Am I getting the best price, and is the purchase/post-purchase going to be hassle free).\n\nSome regular closing techniques:\n1) "Friendly assumption" closing - When u think the close is around, start filling up the documentations asking the customer his name, etc. Assuming in a friendly manner that the sale is closed. \n2) Series of Yes CLosing - Ask the customer a series of questions for which answer is yes.The last question being the closing question.

If you mean a "new" new car dealership you will need to get a franchise from a manufacturer. You could buy an existing dealership. Either way you will need a pocket full of money and experience to have a shot.

Don't try to get to clever, you are a bank. Keep it professional and easy to know what it is. The name of your bank plus Auto, is a good start, from there try every combination of your and names for autos, like , vehicle, wheels, cars plus, etc.\n\nIf you really want to get cute, try " "just a-loan for the ride" as a tag line.
