Welcome to the Sales To CEO podcast. This is your host, Louie Herron. This is the only automotive podcast that shows you how to go to the next level. It is my personal mission to coach, inspire, and motivate you to go from sales to dealer principal, or any level you desire. Stop making excuses and start making adjustments toward the future you want.

Today, we are talking about success steps in selling regardless of the product or service you offer.

I'm going to hit you with four different things today that's probably not going to be at the forefront of your mind, but they're very, very important if you want to be successful in selling anything, regardless if it's a product or service. You guys hear me say this all the time, to sell more cars, to go to the next level, I don't care if you're in management, general management, if you own a dealership, we need two things. We need opportunities to sell somebody something, and we need the right words to say.

We have got to always sharpen our skillsets and our mindsets, and we've always got to be taking the time to get to that next level. And it only comes with a lot of practice, a lot of hard work, but you got to practice the right things. You’ve got to work on the right things.

Remember everything that I share with you is coming from my own 25 years of experience. I've owned dealerships for over 13 years, I've owned three different stores. I've general-managed almost 20 years of the 25 years I've been in the business. And I excelled at an extremely high level, very quickly.

And it's because of this formula, it's not me. There's nothing special about me, just like there's not a lot of things special about a lot of individuals, but you got to follow a formula. You got to follow a blueprint that works. And I found these things that I share with you to be very, very helpful to me in my selling career. And I'm still selling. Even when I'm in stores, I'm helping close car deals, do what I've got to do daily to help individuals go to the next level. And that's what we're talking about today.
Remember, you have ALWAYS got to be thinking about the #NextLevel
