A New Beginning is an Opportunity!

posted by 
Jim Vogel (9)

A lot of things in the car business are changing with lightening speed... hybrid Escalades, anti-leasing, any excuse to raise gas prices, cars not trucks, to loan or not to loan... make no mistake about it, we are indeed in an automotive recession.
 
The fact we are indeed in tougher economic times, makes finding the right caliber of sales talent even more important. Salespeople are revenue generators. The WORLD exists as it is today on sales! That dollar more a gallon of gas dilemma everyone faces in the US has put the pocketbook in the trough. People brown bag, combine trips and SPEND less. Our disposable income fills the tank. Fix the price of gas and we fix most everything. The most popular gift card at Christmas will be EXXON. But the challenges we face economically demand excellent salespeople who provide the best product at the best value. We must move through this challenge. Recruiting the right people no matter the job will promote opportunity. Recruiting is that critical right now.
 
My focus in creating my own recruiting company is to find candidates willing to hang in and work through the recession until we all get what we want. Capitalism and recruiting partner very well. Success comes only through others...
