Hi Monica,

You definitely have a shot, but be careful about what to expect as far as income for training is concerned. You mentioned the disclaimer and if you break that down it is about $500 a week. Sell some cars and then the money will come. Commission is where the money is, but you need to move some metal. As far as hours are concerned it will depend on the dealership, they could be long.

I am a single mom who just lost a job. So Im nearly desperate. I saw a job fair ad on craigslist for auto sales position. “$6000 training salary or commision whichever is higher.” But in small letters on the bottom of the ad it says the “training consists of 3 mo period after official hiredate.” Im just wondering when one can expect the check for training. Im going to the fair next week. But in the meantime I wanted to know what to expect with income. And as soon as i can afford it I will purchase your ebooks…I want that 6 figure income.

Hi Bryan,

More exposure can help. You can always work with Cars.com and AutoTrader. I am sure you must have your own website so anything that will drive traffic there will help.
