Do You Need to Know How to Drive to Sell Cars?
2 Answers
It is not necessary to know how to drive, but you must have a good understanding of the car's relevant knowledge and performance. Check the vehicle's related documents and invoices: Review the vehicle's relevant documents, purchase invoice, purchase tax, certificate of conformity, user manual, maintenance manual, and insurance policy. Pay attention to the vehicle's VPN identification code, whether the engine number and chassis number match, and the production date. Inspect the car body: After checking the vehicle information, inspect the exterior of the car body for any color differences or scratches, and examine the tires. Check the engine: Open the engine hood and check whether the radiator, engine oil, wipers, and battery connectors are secure. Start the engine and inspect the lights and instruments: Start the engine to check if the dashboard and warning lights are functioning properly, whether the engine runs smoothly, and operate the switches to verify their normal operation (lights, steering, window lifting, sunroof, door locks).
Actually, you don't necessarily need to know how to drive to sell cars. I started my career as a salesperson. The key is to understand cars, such as engine parameters, configuration differences, and other professional knowledge, as well as being able to analyze customer needs. Of course, knowing how to drive is better, as you can demonstrate vehicle performance during test drives, but even if you can't, you can ask a test drive specialist for help. What really affects performance is communication skills. I've seen sales champions who don't know how to drive still earning tens of thousands per month.
