2.     Telephone the dealer’s contact person (generally the sales manager) to arrange logistics, make sure there is a private space for interviews, and identify a suitable space for training.

3.     Before training begins, meet with and interview the contact person to learn about their way of doing business, why a prospective sales person would want to work for them, and what they are looking for. Develop a personal relationship.

c.     Friday Morning. Review the training and teach trainees how to conduct a successful job interview. Trainees are interviewed by the dealership in the afternoon.

d.     At the end of the training. Go over the course with the dealership’s contact person, so he/she knows what you have trained them on and they still need to acquire product knowledge for this manufacturer. Encourage them to provide ongoing support, and let them know you are available for ongoing assistance. Ask if they are interested in advanced training for their current staff and if they can give you referrals.
