    Subject: Hiring Costs & Turnover
    Message:
    Hello, I have worked-out a plan to sell myself to a dealership! There are a few things, however, that I need to know first. How much does it cost a dealership to hire and train a salesman? Now, if that employee is not there for the long-term, he will be a "turnover" and cost that dealership money, wouldn't you agree? How much would it cost a dealership each time they lost a newer salesman?
    My idea is to sell myself to the dealership by showing that it will be more cost effective to hire me, (a man with a strong desire to be a top performer; who remains at one dealership to build a solid referral business and career) than to hire about 5 people who move on at the first sign of hard work or lower income. I know what it is like to earn $64,000.00 a year! I do right now! So, my intention is to do what it takes to reach that goal, then keep learning more and more to do better and better! My plan is designed to ask only the questions in the interview that I know the answer to. Then, close the sales manager who interviews me! Any thoughts or comments?
    I really appreciate this forum. Thank-you to all that have replied with helpful words of encouragement! Gordon Miller
