By David Howard Harrison


When selling cars and automobiles, there are some valuable sale tactics and techniques that may apply for the whole process of dealerships as well as on the customer who want to "switch" his decision form buying brand new cars to used one. These tools when delivered professionally may influence the customer's decision and preferences that will be resulted to more benefits. According to recent research, almost 75% of the car buyers have tendencies of changing their minds when it comes to car types, models, colors, packages, features of the car and the methods of payments. In order to address this, the sales team should apply a 25% tactics and techniques to make a 100% total solution to customer's car switching thoughts.

When dealing with customers, you need to know them well. Knowing their personal backgrounds like name, address, and age just like signing up an autograph is not the main point here but asking his car preferences like model, brand, favorite color, type of payment methods and dealership should be your focus. When your client is a used buyer, take time to assess if he is still interested to purchase another one and apply some of your sales tactics but on the other hand, if your client is a solid buyer of new things, tactics may not be applicable. Good communication skills skills are needed and should be applied in this aspect.

Financial concerns are the next common things that you need to address. These problems include credit rejection due to the qualifications or requirements. If this is your case, you may do one easy thing- introduce a used car with good ownership at a lower price. If your client is highly interested in owning a car, this option works best. Aside from this, the sales team or staffs should be knowledgeable enough to the products located in the departments. Ideally, they must know the auto products of the other departments so that they could easily apply the "switching tactics."

Sales managers are playing a vital role like their staffs and teams. Ion other auto shops, there are two managers who are leading their teams to promote and sell. They are located in the new and used department. In this case, conflicts between them are common but avoidable. Through good communication and proper recommendation, the sales would benefit the managers, customers, as well as the staffs of each department.

Do not feel sad or angry when your team did not convince the customer to switch to used cars but let them go to their preferred cars. If there are any unclosed deals, you may ask the client to leave his number and contact him immediately for any updates from your used sections. Sometimes, ample time is the key here. Do not force your customers to make decisions but instead let them think about the offers and benefits you have said. Ask or call them from time to time and ask their decisions. Let them feel that you are a sincere seller about their interests and preferences.
