Non-Sales Car Dealership Jobs Dallas

By Debra Williams


Are you are missing out on something? Do you feel confused about what step to take next when it comes to having a successful dealership? It's a whole different ballgame than it used to be just some few years that passed. The traditional dealership jobs Dallas are obsolete, and you must forget about it to succeed in the days to come.

Some different employment opportunities exist at car dealerships aside from the sales staff or financing department personnel. Personable and engaging staff members are needed to keep the business running smoothly. Receptionists greet customers when they enter and help assign them to different salespeople. They also answer phones, route calls to the different departments and schedule appointments for sales and service. A good candidate for this position will have administrative experience and an outgoing personality.

Car dealerships consist of many different departments, including the sales team, the management, the service and repair staff, and the finance department. All of these departments play different roles and work together to keep the dealer running smoothly. The sales team's job is very customer-based. They greet customers when they first walk in the showroom, explain the features and pricing of various vehicles, and answer any questions that the customer may have. This requires an extensive knowledge of all of the vehicles, the financing deals, and the available customization.

Candidates with marketing or advertising experience might also consider applying for jobs at a car dealership. Marketing positions are well suited for creative individuals who enjoy developing strategies and finding new ways to engage with the public. People in these positions study trends, analyze competitors' offerings and develop new ways to improve existing products and services.

As an example, the selling process must be reviewed to make sure it is up to date and matches today's marketplace. Most sales processes being used today were created in the 50's and 60's and had changed only slightly. Meanwhile, for the customer, everything has changed. Information gathering, overall knowledge, shopping process, the volume of choices, expectations, value perceptions, lessening of brand loyalty are all things that have changed dramatically.

The finance department is in charge of processing applications for financing or accepting payments that customers have pre-arranged. They also sell extended warranties and financing packages, and they must make quotas every month just like the sales staff.

Prospective employees who have been laid off from jobs in other industries can take comfort in the fact that car dealerships are relatively stable. They are not susceptible to an economic downturn in the same way as the financial sector or housing market. This is because most of the profit is from selling used cars, providing services and financing fees. New vehicle sales comprise only about 20 percent of the business's profit.

Cars on display might be the main attraction at a dealer, but the large windowed room that holds the cars also provides office spaces to sales personnel. Dealerships usually have private offices where customers may go to discuss financing, as well as management and accounting offices full of equipment and file cabinet.
