Description

What does a Car Salesperson do?

A Car Salesperson can either work for a dealership, in which case they'll sell new cars that are produced by a single manufacturer, or they can work for an independent outlet that sells used cars of all makes and models.

Depending on where they work, Car Salespeople may also sell other types of vehicles for instance, motorbikes and lorries.

As the main aim of the job is to reach sales targets, Car Salespeople need to build new sales leads, while also strategically retaining existing customers.

They can do this by extending their services to customers after the initial sales process has been completed. This may include dealing with complaints, selling accessories or liaising with a service department on behalf of a customer.
