Looking Back   (continued)
I have heard an all too familiar tone: A dear friend and dealer
principle in a New York high line franchise store contacted
me last week and asked me “How do I get my team excited
about selling cars?” I answered him with a question, "Are you
exuding the same excitement toward your team that you are
asking about - toward them?"
The first thing your team notices in a showroom is the level of excitement. Have you ever been to a carnival where
everyone looked withdrawn and sad?  Of course not, that’s the whole reason for the carneys; they bring a sense of
excitement that makes you want to hand over your money and throw a ball at a few old milk bottles for a grand prize of a
stuffed poodle. I’m certainly not suggesting that you open your doors and start a carnival, what I am suggesting is that
you create a friendly and exciting place to come. And those customers will share their experiences with their friends.
